My problem is with HD Audio. When i plug in Headphones Windows Ten Pro 64 does not detect them or if does the volume is really low even if turn it up in Windows. The Realtek Audio HD icon in Control Panel also does nothing at all.

 

I have Creative Cambridge Soundworks FPS2000 Surround Sound System. This is four SMALL speakers and and one big square one.

 

It was working fine until the other day. Usually i would plug in the Headphone the Realtek Audio Manager branded Asus comes up. This is the make of my Motherboard. I would then tick Headphones and click on OK. Then i would turn off the Cambridge speakers so the sound came through the Headphones. Any ideas? Thanks

 

Here is my System.
