Hi,

My employer has recently bought some HP desktop PCs and the results have been catastrophic mostly because of problems with audio drivers.

Problem 1: Flow.exe consumes absolutely all of the RAM available the moment you start Firefox (which is the explorer that we use for our internal applications). You cannot even run a tomcat due to lack of memory. Yesterday I had Flow process consuming 12GB of Memory. We were able to solve this with a solution I found online, renaming Flow.exe so it stops running.

This stopped the screen freezes. 

 

Problem 2: Split audio configuration or disable ONLY built in speakers. People like listening to music around here and it seems to not be possible to configure headphones separately so people need to keep muting and unmuting the audio. Someone goes home, takes his headphones, receives a Skype call and we need to go and unplug the PC. We can fix it if the driver allows configuration to only disable the speaker. If there is a way, please let me know.

 

Kind regards
