Hello everyone. Today I turned on my PC just as usual and realized, that there was no sound. I checked speakers, but they were on. I tried adjusting volume levels in Windows but also without any success. Then I tried everything I could: reinstalling drivers, both from motherboard CD and the producer's website, rebooting, checking BIOS, clearing CMOS even making a fresh copy of windows but still no sound at all. Additionaly i found that the card started behaving strangely. When I connected speakers to a green output, it recognized them properly but when i plugged mic in red input it recognized it as a SUBWOOFER. I asked myself, what the heck ? To make sure i wasn't sleeping and it still allowed to assign it as one of the 5.1 speakers. Also I didn't find any solution for exact same problem yet, so I made this topic and luckily maybe somebody will help me. For now on I'm using some crappy 11 year old PCI card and it works well but I don't want it because it has broken mic input and audio quality from it is just terryfying.

PS the front panel also does't work.
I'm giving my PC specs:
Motherboard : MSI A88X-G43 Military class
CPU : AMD A10-5800k
Graphics: Asus GTX 660 OC TOP DCUII 2 GB
PSU :Tacens Radix 500W

I will appreciate any help
