    try this
    Right click on Sound icon to open Playback devices
    Choose your current playback device
    Navigate to Properties and click on Advanced
    Choose lower or higher bitrate (use 24bit/44100 Hz or 24bit/192000Hz – it depends on the device).

    I've tried this thanks and it makes no difference what bitrate it's set to. Think I've tried most things by googling. I can see a return to Windows 7 later, which is a shame as I do like Windows 10 (but my p.c. obviously does not!).

    I agree ... it's probably something really simple, but what I wonder?

    Have you checked the Realtek HD Audio Manager? - Just type it into the start menu to find it.
    Not sure anything in there could affect, but worth a look..

    You may have already tried this however another option is to try the drivers directly from Realtek:

    Science isn't exact, it's only confidence within limits.

    Sorry Fightsback - I've already been there.

    Thanks for the suggestion though.
