Bi-Weekly Realtek HD Audio Driver Update (ver. 1.71)
Hi Cal Bear '66
My Realtek Driver Is V 6.0.1.5413, DirectX V 10.1, Audio Controller HD Audio, Audio Codec ALC888. Any time I check for updated drivers through Control Panel/Device Mgr I am told Audio Drivers are up to date. I d/ld ver1.71 and ran it. On rechecking Driver version, I am told V 6.0.1.53xx (can't remember the last 2 digits), which to my tiny brain all suggests I have a later driver than the latest. duh Anyway Roll Back was greyed out, so I system restored and got back my later than latest drivers. Any comments or explanations? since you seem to be a fairly knowledgeable guy flatter flatter -- Delboy A common mistake that people make when trying to design something completely foolproof is to underestimate the ingenuity of complete fools.

I would never trust the Device Manager check for updated drivers. I always go
the the manufacturer's web site for the latest drivers. I have installed ver. 1.71, and the driver is ver. 6.0.1.5443 dated 7/10/2007. I would uninstall your present Realtek drivers in Device Manager and uninstall the Realtek HD Audio Manager in Control Panel Programs and Features (Windows will reinstall generic drivers when you do this. Go back to Device Manager and uninstall the HD audio device again) -- REBOOT -- install ver. 1.71 -- REBOOT again, and you should have 6.0.1.5443 correctly installed. -- I Bleed Blue and Gold GO BEARS!

Thanks, Cal Bear 66. Got rid of the old one and installed the new one. Is
there a reason why they are updating the driver so often? "Cal Bear '66" wrote in message ... Latest (ver. 1.71) Realtek HD Audio Drivers: http://www.realtek.com.tw/downloads/...&GetDown=false -- I Bleed Blue and Gold GO BEARS! |

Wish I knew why they release updates so often. Maybe they release an update
after each "improvement" instead of waiting for several. Although, I really don't have any problems, and can't seem to tell the difference. Not much of a clue reading the release notes either. But they do appear to be working hard to improve and refine their drivers. -- I Bleed Blue and Gold GO BEARS! "Ryka" wrote in message ... Thanks, Cal Bear 66.
