    Apps slow to start to open, sound not working through headset, and other issues


    Hi there,I recently upgraded my PC hardware, installing a new motherboard, CPU, and CPU fan. The PC turns on and works fine apart from a few issues: 1. Some apps can be slow to open. Previously, Chrome could take a few seconds to open. Now it takes 10-12 seconds to start to open. Same with Discord app, or a game. This issue can sometimes go away with a restart, but it can be hit and miss, it does consistently return though. Some apps, like Firefox, can open pretty much immediately when selected.2. I now have no sound through my headset. Mic works fine, but the headset no longer receives sound,

    :)
