Hey guys, I am running an MSI GE70 laptop with realtek speakers and running Windows 10. The problem that I am having is that all audio no matter if it is my built-in speakers, headphones, or HDMI to a tv keep cutting out every 10 minutes. The only solution I can find is to plug one of the items in (or unplug it), or let my audio idle for a few minutes. After doing one of these two things, my sound seems to work just fine for another 10 minutes. Could this be a driver issue? Also, if I try and test my speakers it says that the device is being used by another program.

It most definitely will be a driver issue as you've already stated your unit to be powered off a Realtek audio chip. Have you tried uninstalling and re-installing your audio drivers with that found off Realtek's site? We will also need further information by the model number, we'll need the remaining 2~4 digits after the GE70. In the meantime, have you made sure your BIOS is up to date alongside the rest of your device drivers?
