which version? some new versions are WHQL for Win10 only, meaning it can only install under Win10. and what kind of computer are you using?

Version 6.0.1.7831 is now available from Microsoft for 32bit & 64bit Windows. This one can be installed under Windows Vista, 7, 8.x & 10 as it is WHQL certified for those Windows versions.

I am looking for the release notes for these drivers here. I extracted the zip and there is nothing in there. I looked at the Microsoft Catalog site and nothing there too. Is there a place to find the release notes?

If you have no problems with your audio either in windows or games should you still update the sound card drivers like you do with video card drivers?

Strange. There is no setup or install .exe with the package for Windows 7.

Which link did you use?

I used this link Realtek and chose the zip file like it looks like you did by your post and i got the setup.exe in there. Did your antivirus delete it?

The link i posted is that the link you used? If need be i can upload the zip file for you. But mine is in English.

Here is the link for it in case you need it. I 7ziped it to make it small so you don't have to waste that much bandwidth on it in case you have a download limit on your internet. It is 78 mb and will unzip to 645mb.

I downloaded the one in the first post. (The Microsoft Update Catalog)

 

[SnakeFist]

Ok click on start>control panel> device manager.

Look for sound, video and game controllers.

Double click on the realtek device when the new dialog box pops up click on the driver tab.
Then click on update drivers.

When the dialog box pops up click on browse my computer for driver software.

When the next screen appears click browse. Browse to where you unzipped the files at.

Once you select the location of the driver click next and it will install the driver after a few moments. You should see this if it was successful.

I hope this helps you out. If you need any more help let me know and I'll be more then happy to help you out.

I made a system restore before updating to these new drivers and unfortunately had to restore back to the previous version of the audio drivers. It messed up my sound settings and also removed a lot of the bass boost for my 1400W Hi-Fi connected to my PC. It sounded like there was no bass at all almost. A huge decrease anyway. I have 2 300W subs connected to my amps.
