hi all, i am having probs with the front mic boost been on full and causing whistling in the speakers. when i right click the realtek Hd audio manager and bring up audio devices>sound then click recording box it brings me to front mic i double click that then click the levels box,i then have the front mic and mic boost on screen and the mic boost is on full, if i drop it the whistling stops, but i am not getting the apply box lighting up to save it, just the ok box, so every time i switch speakers on i have to go through the same routine. any help appreciated.

interesting mine doesn't apply either but it does stay where i put it so maybe just clicking ok will do
you could try just turning the other slide down though

are your drivers recent? if not go to realteks site and download from them FTP (transfer is slower than a Slug, so grab a ham sandwich or something.) there was an issue like this posted about a year ago, and realtek corrected the problem in the driver.

edit:the WDDM driver possess this same issue Microsoft has not updated it.
