Performance Tweaks After Driver Installation

Once all drivers are installed, optimize your Esonic H81DA for stability and speed:

  1. In BIOS (Press Del or F2 at boot):

    • Enable "SATA Mode" = AHCI (not IDE).
    • Disable "Onboard VGA" if using dedicated GPU.
    • Set "HPET" (High Precision Event Timer) to Enabled for Windows 10/11.
  2. Power Plan: Use "High Performance" to prevent PCIe link state power management, which can cause audio crackles.

  3. Driver Version Lock: Use wushowhide.diagcab from Microsoft to hide unwanted driver updates for Realtek audio/LAN.
