Since installing the update, my audio is distorting at fairly low volumes and it was fine beforehand. It seems worse on Windows Media Player than VLC, but it's still not great with that.

Device Manager suggests that my Audio Driver (Realtek High Definition Audio) is fine.

A quick Google search suggests that I'm not alone, but offer totally conflicting bits of advice.

I'll probably try reinstalling the driver anyway, but any other thoughts appreciated (apart from telling me to buy a Mac or use Linux)

Thanks,

Ed
