Latest Realtek Sound Driver

<< < (2/5) > >>

Hi,

The Windows 10 version I have installed is version 21H1. I uninstalled  the old driver first from  B460M AORUS PRO (rev. 1.0) motherboard and then what happened afterwards is as stated above.

Thanks,

teknology9

I had this exact problem, I think, where the uninstall was continuously looping. You have to fully uninstall your audio yourself, remove the software install and the drivers from control panel / device manager and if you can prevent it trying to install auto on reboot, you will be able to properly install the drivers you are having the loop issue with. I googled the issue and found the answer (not being sarcastic) after a bit of digging. I don't remember which gave the exact method sorry but it was generally this.

I am having a sound / echoing crackle that fades on when enough sound hits the sound card. I tried this, no solution yet.

Its likely that going back one or two driver versions will not exhibit this looping install behavior.

I have sound drivers on one machine W10 21H1 from 2014.  They are working perfectly.

Intel 2016
RealTek 2014
nVidia 2021

the latest Realtek audio driver is 6.0.9235.1 dated 9/6/2021 from gigabyte's web site.

works with recent & older Gigabyte boards, even with my Gigabyte board running Win10 21H2

I have had this problem with the installation loop on Windows 11.   After informing Gigabyte I think a new update was added as it was quickly fixed but with Realtek no longer adding support for 5.1 sound I wanted to know if there is software or if they still make PCI soundcards that support the 5.1 format?

What Realtek have done is made having a great sound setup pointless as you can now only get 2.1 sound no matter what your setup is.
