Well that was a dead end. Nothing there but BIOS announcements. Seems the latest is v1102 dated Aug 9, 2013.

Not saying to update BIOS but do you know what version you are on?
Oh. Okay.
You know how to google so I leave it to you to read about updating BIOS's, the good, the bad and the ugly.
When you update a BIOS you go in eyes wide open. It can "Brick" your machine and the description is very real, you wind up with a brick.
Now I've updated lots of BIOS's and have not had one do this. I bet a lot of members have successfully updated a BIOS but I bet there are a few failures. I will assume a number of failures were self inflicted, wrong BIOS for machine, read instructions after starting, had to hit power button because it looked frozen. The manufactures make these updates available, it is just eyes wide open.
So if you decide to do this make sure your power is as stable as possible, like don't do it in a storm, especially a thunder storm. I usually use a battery UPS because I have them protecting my gear. Read the manufactures directions and follow them. Be patient. If something looks like is taking a long time go have a coffee.
To be clear, this might not fix your issue and there are risks.
You absolutely need to be sure you are using a BIOS update for your board. Check label or box to be sure.
There are some that will say you have to do this. You don't. Your machine has run for a very long time without a BIOS update. I would like to see Asus and all manufactures state what their upgrades fix or functionality it adds. I will be in a pine box before that happens.
It maybe less risky to try new sound card.

i dont see how updating my bios can fix the problem in windows
and if its risky i will definitely dont do it.
and i will not "by my way to freedom" with a new soundcard. the sound has worked fine before and it will again.
i think i will just compare the sound scheme with my windows 10 laptop and change all the "no sounds".
if i find other errors i will make a new clean install
Yes there is some risk but it is manageable. BIOS can cause issues as it is the machine layer. Have a quick read of this, even the first section on how does the BIOS work.
