Could your Realtek driver version affect your settings?

[MehRepublic]

there a driver(realtek enhancement somethingss) that u should uninstall, then it will be back fine

 

recheck back all the related audio driver

Go to Default Format tab and lower it to something like 16 bit / 44 KHz. Sometimes having it too high disables all effects.

yo there's an "advanced button", press it and see what that does.

Hi, I recently swapped my motherboard with a better one and im now trying to get the right Realtek HD Audio Manager. . . . .

 

1) go to manufacturer's website

2) download the realtek driver from your motherboard model's webpage

3) uninstall your current realtek driver

4) install the new one

 

5) whatever features it does or does not have, is what that motherboard model supports.  You win some, you lose some.

did you just look at the picture or do have any clue what you're talking about?

You were looking for equalizer and custom settings, I'd assume those are in the Advanced options there, as they don't seem to be in the standard settings. But now that I read OP once again, I understand. As others have said, get the newest version. Go to your motherboards website, and download it from there, that could solve it.

look at the box it came in, or look at the motherboard, it should say somewhere

here's their site for my board, v1.1

 

http://www.gigabyte.com/products/product-page.aspx?pid=3996#driver

 

look up near the top, in blue they have the versions hotlinked so you can click on the one you have, and navigate from there.

 

 

This may or may not be their universal realtek driver with all of their special versions in it. Use at your own risk.

sometimes using the website for drivers isnt always the best choice... i just put in the utility disc... simple.

old buggy outdated drivers are never simple or easy, and never, ever the right choice.

except in this case it WAS simple and isn't buggy at all probably because the disc is updated as well.

[ShearMe]

Someone should make a website with torrent links of all the various Realtek driver versions, and have compiled compatibility notes.....

 

...so who wants to help me make a website?  :lol:
