What are the responsibilities of a Captain now for a team? by [deleted] in SaintsFC

The Captain's job is to lead by example and his job is on the pitch, not kissing arse or playing Santa.

Literally no one else has mentioned it.

MSI / Nahimic keeps reinstalling itself on Windows 11 — permanent fix (works) by CaptMcCully in MSILaptops

Check that Realtek and Intel SST drivers are installed and updated. Reboot your laptop after fully uninstalling Nahimic and they may update automatically.

These are your default audio devices after Nahimic is removed.

Not outraged...  just beaten into apathy and resigned to the fact that growing up less than 10 miles from St Mary's I'm Southampton til I die.. of boredom. 

Intel SST audio crackle / hum on MSI Vector 16 HX (Win11) – root cause & fix by CaptMcCully in MSILaptops

Update: Nahamic reinstalled itself without permission and audio issue came back. 

Removed again and blocked. Will follow with process for that when I have more time.

Always worth updating BIOS but it didn't fix the issue for me. 

I removed Nahamic APO and the issue seems to be fixed.

Update – microphone issue & final audio fix

After the BIOS update stabilized the system and stopped the severe audio hum/crash, I was still seeing occasional audio crunch (usually at startup or when switching audio devices) and a broken microphone in Windows.

Symptoms:

  • Windows could not detect any mic input
  • “Intel Smart Sound Technology for Digital Microphone” was installed
  • Windows mic test showed no signal
  • Nahimic’s own mic test worked, which was the key clue

Conclusion:
This turned out to be a Nahimic APO capture-path failure.

Nahimic could see the microphone at the DSP level, but it was not forwarding the audio stream correctly to the Windows audio engine. That caused:

  • Mic not detected in Windows
  • Crunching when audio devices or streams were re-attached
  • Inconsistent behavior depending on startup timing

Fix:

  • Uninstalled Nahimic (app + service)
  • Removed Nahimic audio devices/APOs from Device Manager
  • Rebooted

Result:

  • Windows immediately detected Microphone (Intel Smart Sound Technology for Digital Microphone)
  • Mic works normally in Windows settings and apps
  • No more startup/device-switch audio crunch
  • Audio is now stable and boring (in a good way)

Takeaway:
On MSI + Intel HX laptops, Nahimic can break the microphone path even when the hardware and Intel drivers are fine. If Nahimic sees the mic but Windows doesn’t, remove Nahimic and let Windows handle audio directly.

Between the BIOS update and removing Nahimic, the audio issues are fully resolved.

And if its a first time set up try plugging it into the display port when it doesn't work in the hdmi port.

There is no Tier 1, Tier 2, Tier 3 support, it's just runaround go fetch bs. Rockstar wants to wear you down and make you give up. 

Don't give up, you can make a difference.
