All inputs except my Modi for my Schiit stack are turned off. Windows 10 just got a new install yesterday because of this issue, and it keeps attempting to play sound through a device called "Name Not Available." It pops in and out so fast I can't remove it, and it stops the audio from my headphones. Modi is also my primary sound setting. I'm fully up to date with Windows updates too.

Also, the name isn’t showing up as a program—it’s an audio device that pops in and out very quickly. Fully format all three drives in your system and reinstall Windows from scratch.

I think it might be a hardware problem. Also, why are there three drives? What’s the purpose? The system relies on just one, while the rest hold your files. Changing the format of your data doesn’t help and won’t make any difference.

Since every drive was a system drive at some stage, it was divided with system reserves included for Windows. Removed all partitions and restored them to their original sizes.

Additionally, it doesn't appear to be hardware dependent; it functioned well on my brother's computer last night. A reboot resolves the issue temporarily, usually restoring normal operation after about an hour.

Click the computer to open the Manage Computer option. It lists connected devices, with problematic ones marked as unknown. You can handle device drivers there as well. The control panel provides access to the device manager through administrative tools.
