Windows 10: No sound on desktop Gigabyte motherboard

I just installed windows 10 for the first time and Ive got no sound. I went to the gigabyte driver site and installed the latest driver they have. (VIA HD Audio). I have read other threads on here about lowering the Bitrate down to 16 but that does help either. Everytime i press the test button it just crashes. I have to troubleshoot audio problems and it comes back up but whenever i try to play sound from anywhere it will just crash. Anyone got any ideas?

Win 10 CPU fan control is screwy after returning from sleep mode

My Motherboard is a Desktop PC

Motherboard is a Gigabyte GA-990FXA-UD3 Revision 4.0

I contacted Gigabyte Tech Support and they provided me with an updated motherboard Bios which fixed the problem completely.

Thank you very much for your reply

If thats build 10130 and you have a soundblaster sound card or a soundblaster built into your motherboard, then its a known issue.
Please check this thread out and try the instructions to see if it helps you.

 

Ya i saw that thread before. I tried lowering the bitrate like it says but it doesnt change anything

 

So quick update.....I got audio working by uninstalling the "VIA HD audio " driver from device manager. Windows then installed "windows HD audio" or something like that, it was a generic driver it looked like. Well as soon as it did that sound worked great....up until today. For some reason, randomly it decided to install the VIA HD audio driver on its own and im back to having no audio. I tried to uninstall the driver but when i do windows wont install the generic driver it did before.
