Hi
Just when I thought I had everything fixed Windows forced me to update my sound drivers again.
I couldn't find any way to stop it, it showed that what it was updating was my Sound Blaster drivers.
In the previous build I could tell it not to update those drivers but I don't see that option In this version.
I tried restoring the sound the way I did before, by uninstalling my sound card in Device Manager and then rebooting.
Only this time it didn't recognise my sound card and reinstall it.
When I tried to run the Creative software install it said it didn't detect the sound card either.
I used my system Image and restore my computer to before it updated.
Now everything is working again but I don't want to have to keep doing this.
I don't know why my SB Audigy PCIe sound card won't work if the drivers are updated but its been this way since I first had this issue when updating to Windows 8.1.
It does the same thing if I update the drivers directly from Creative Labs.
My last option is to get a non Creative sound card and maybe that will stop the problems.
If anyone has any idea how I can stop Windows 10 from forcing me to update let me know, it really seems that Windows should let you run the drivers that you want for your devices.
I know I'm not the only one with this problem, when I installed W8.1 I found a bunch of people complaining about the same thing.
