    Poor Audio Quality in Windows 7


    Hello forum,

    I recently installed Windows 7 Ultimate(32-bit).I earlier had Windows XP Professional 32-bit OS and it was working perfectly.Since i installed Win 7..the quality of the audio is pretty bad(not so sharp,clear).I have an on board realtek audio chipset(mobo from intel).
    I checked the speakers,the were perfectly ok.Any Help would be much apprtiated.

    Thank you

    Have you downloaded and installed the latest Realtek audio driver from Intel for your particular motherboard?

    The latest driver can be found here. Realtek

    The Realtek HD Audio manager has a 10 band EQ and Loudness Equalization, so that you can improve the sound.

    You might also make sure that your speakers are set to CD/DVD quality
