correct link where i could download realtek hd audio drivers

[jraju]

Hi, Please give the correct link from where i could download the latest realtek audio drivers for my windows 7 64 bit pc.

Even downloading from legitimate download sites , could not be installed as it is being reported as corrupted errors.
Can I auto update the realtek audio drivers . Going to the

Device manager, clicking the sound controllers, show that the driver is upto date, but software like driver easy shows that updates are available and it shows the version information also.
The driver version , it shows is 6.0.9070.1 for my system.
How do i find this driver.
Sevenfourm links shows drivers from microsoft catelogue as cab file, which is not easy to install.

i want exe file to download install.

Sevenfourm links shows drivers from microsoft catelogue as cab file, which is not easy to install...

It's actually quite easy for a .cab file that contains a driver. A .cab file is just a compressed archive, same as a .zip file. And like a .zip file Explorer can open it and extract the contents.


Extract the .cab file to a folder, or even to your desktop. Then right-click on the .inf file to install the driver.

Hi, bree,

could you give the correct link. Thanks for your suggestion.
What I did was , just extract the file to a folder and then, go to the device manager, sound controllers and then right click and in the properties menu, select update the driver and browsed to the folder, and it installed it . Thanks for your tips, which is even quick quide.
For more knowledge,

would the cab file contain only one inf in the extracted folder?
2. Why selecting the search online updates, gives the message, that the best driver has already been installed for the device, even when there is a latest version available

 

[Bree]

A cab file may sometimes contain more than one .inf and driver, perhaps for a family of devices. That isn't a problem, because when you browse to the folder from Device Manager it will choose the one that is appropriate for your specific device.


I didn't provide a link as I don't know precisely which Realtek card you have.

 

[jraju]

hI, BREE, thanks for the reply.
I am expecting your reply to the point 2 I raised in my previous reply
Please find enclosed the sound card details.
I am having a nvidia ge force 210 video card and so, having both realtek and nvidia audio drivers as per the enclosure

Hi, bree, I also wish to hear from you about the digital audio output thro my present speaker. I suppose, eventhough ,the cpu to pc is connected with hdmi, the audio that i get thro my default speaker is only analog sound thro the present two speakers and not the digital output.
But in playback tab, enclosed, i do find a digital output device, with a hdmi icon, as connected and ready. But i do not know, how do i enable the sound thro my speakers for the digital sound.
How do I know, if my speaker is supported for digital output of audio.
Are normal speakers support hdmi over voice.
if possible, please let me know, how to i hear the sound from my present speaker , by selecting this as my default device for audio playback.
I tried, but i do see green volume test level raising, but no sound in the video played

Hi, Bernardus,
The problem is not in hearing the audio.
I only now hear the analog audio, which was default from my speakers.
Now, I HAVE hdmi connection to the pc from cpu and want to change the audio experience from analog to digital. OFCOURSE, I could see the test gives, green upraising of audio bars, but i could not hear anything, as I do not know , how to configure hdmi audio.
Realtex speakers is the one i HAVE. There are 3 jacks round, at the back of the pc, in which I have used the green centre jack for my audio experience.
What I want is the hdmi audio experience, which is showing in the playback tabs I enclosed.
Hope that I cleared your doubts

Hi, Bernardus, had you PM to me. I could not locate your thread in here, but had received your emails
The posted message:

The onboard audio could be the trouble.
On mine it coupled around with a PCIe card (other fabric)
Can't even use the new card independent.

Hi, I give herewith the rca jack information..
How do i get hdmi audio thro my pc speakers.
Now, I suppose, I am only getting analogic signal from my speakers

 

[Bernardus]

Hi jraju
So you still have that problem? I deleted my reply because it seemed an old posting.
Did you try to stop the start up of the onboard audio in bios?

Here an example of mine with the onboard on and the extra PCI e card not being used.

As you can see the PCI-e board is not in use.

It became only active if I plug in something, but it conflicts with the onboard audio.
Other possibilities could be the device address of a unit.
But in mine by recording they couple like a howling mike, until the maximum level is reached.

The HDMI is only for appropriate cable connection.
I hope you realise that HDMI is a protocol and all speakers are analogue.
Unless you have HDMI converters build into them.

My Monitor for instance accepts HDMI, but there are no speakers build in.
Still it's possible to switch HDMI on. Visible in Sound settings of W7.

Have you tried the driver downloads?

Hi, bernadus,
I unserstand your postings now.
It means that , as we use hdmi cable for connection, the audio and video is inherent in it and we hear the sound from this hdmi inherent source, thro the analog speakers.
Nice point.
But why there is a hdmi plug like icon device is showning in my playback tab ?
Do you mean that I have to disable the onboard audio in bios.
If i do so, would it not disable the audio in all sources, please let me know.
Also please let me know, what settings could be adjusted in analog speakers, so that the sudio from hdmi source could be better heard, like in settings from the default analog settings that we would be having.

 

[Bernardus]

You have two sources of audio on your PC. It may happen that the on board one has priority over the extra audio board.
In my case, as soon as I plug in a connector at the backboard, it will get active in Sound settings.
Since most people now use digital equipment, the setting would probably digital or HDMI.
However, I still use analogous devices and amplifiers.
In the newest drivers, I can't even set analogue or HDMI, or digital is standard.
I too have some problems with my card, mainly the onboard input, which still won't work correctly with the PCIe card. It's either the onboard audio, or the extra card. Nevertheless both produce sound on my analogue output.

It's possible that the audio won't work if you switch off your onboard audio in BIOS, but it's very simple to switch it on again.
You shouldn't delete the drivers, unless they cause trouble. Conflicts between Windows generic and the manufacturers drivers are often problematic. Preference is usually the manufacturers version.
If you switch the onboard off, you have to adjust the Sound settings in Windows and divert it to the new card. You can test the output with a build in bleep. Still it's possible that is will detect automatically (which is also a Bios option). In my case the output will switch, but the input won't. The sound goes to both, but the new card won't record, very odd.
Another point is the sound setting by bitrate. It could be f.i. 44.100 or 48000/24 bits. Some devices and recording demand a specified bitrate. Or for instance Adobe Audition, that in and output use the same bitrate. If the source is absent it will never match. (My card doesn't show up in record options).

With analogue there is nothing to set. It won't contain any other command signals. However in the digital process you could change the case in 2, 3 or 5 speakers, special effects etc. But it's all artificial.
Analogue is nothing but volume and bass or treble. There is no place for any other information since analogue is a continuous signal. That's also why CD in CDA mode never displays any record information.

bernardus, thanks for the neat explanation.
Yes, when I disabled on board audio in bios, i could not hear any sound from pc speakers. The playback option does not show the speakers at all, even though I have nvidia audio drivers.
May be your explanation of priority be the reason .

These drivers only work for my tv, which is connected to the pc using hdmi speakers. In Nvidia control panel, also sound settings only show, what is shown in windows menus.
Realtek, the default device drivers are getting bi-monthly updates whereas , nvidia never updates the driver from 2016 for my video geforce card.
Or can I download nvidia audio drivers of latest version from nvidia for wn 7 64 bits?
could you give advice on that and give a correct link for the latest drivers.

 

[Bernardus]

I already put some links about the drivers. But perhaps this will help you?

You can't expect HDMI output to drive your analogue speakers.
HDMI is a special plug and cable.
Analogue is just two sets of straight wires or a stereo phone plug.
If your audio doesn't show up after stopping the bios function you have the device manager to direct to the proper driver information which is a .inf file So you may have to hint the device manager to the correct folder. Search in device manager for "hidden devices".
Inf files you will find in windows but also in driver.exe files. .inf Files search won't show all folders, it has to be guided to the proper folder and there is an option to include folders searching.
With a program pea.zip you could open these .exe files and archives to find the .inf files and extract.

Your PC apparently won't start to search new drivers, or does not detect the extra card. It may have to be using the wrong .inf file, therefore the id of the card won't match.
Even if the card is older, it won't mean that it won't work. Sometimes the program has to be installed in compatibility mode.
The driver I appoint to is a W7 64 bits version. At least it should be compatible, which won't exclude 32 bit .inf files
.inf files just contain "fingerprints" and information of the device.
