[NFBCS] My Laptop Won't Let Me Change the Audio Driver

	I don't have any Dell services running--at least not to my knowledge. I disabled all of them not long after I got the laptop.
	From what I can find about the problem online, it has to do with Windows 10.

It might also be worth finding out which Dell services you could disable so drivers are not constantly being reloaded.
