Hey everyone,

I don't know a lot when it comes to sound cards/drivers so I'm not sure if this latest update will work.. my current Realtek HD Audio Manager says it's version 6.0.1.6069 and the Audio Codec is ALC259. I noticed that that wasn't in the list of supported numbers so I'm unsure if it will work.
Any help would be appreciated

Thanks!

Hey, I have SRS Premium Sound system implented in my laptop.
The controller of SRS was one tab of Realtek menu, right next to Room correction tab.
After installing the newest Realtek driver (2.61) the tab for SRS disappeared...
(I had it in the 2.60.)

So, is there some way to fix this or do I need to go back to 2.60?
(I wasn't able to find 2.60 anywhere either... :/)

A possible solution for static sounds

I'm not sure if it's been posted in the previous pages, but I've found a solution to the static noises that happen along with other sounds. I found it elsewhere on the internet (sadly I closed it so I cannot reference), and I thought I'd post here to hopefully help a few frustrated people. The same static thing happened for me in Windows XP, it was just so long ago that I forgot to bookmark the fix that worked for me.

I was getting the random "static" sound on speakers and headphones that seemed to be caused by CPU use. The sound was similar to if you were messing with headphone cord while listening to an MP3 player. This occurred when I did anything on my PC. Games, music; I could turn my speakers or headphones up and just scroll through a webpage and I'd get a static-ey chatter. Annoying, and seemingly loosely based on how much the processor was thinking about something. Seriously, even moving my mouse across the screen caused a tiny bit of hum.

Solution! In Windows 7, go to Control Panel-> Hardware and Sound, and open the Sound setting. Double-click on Speakers (that's what it was for me; could be different for different setups?), select the Levels tab, and find the PC Beep slider. Put this to 0 or mute it. Once I did that, all of my static sounds were gone!

Not sure if this will work for all. Obviously we have all different builds, manufacturers, and driver versions. I have an ASUS P6T and am running Windows 7 64. Like I said above, I had the same issue in Windows XP, and was so I knew there was SOMETHING that might work...just didn't know where to look. I don't know if this issue is caused by loose wires in my case or something, but when I did it in XP, I never had an issue again (until recently upgrading to 7). I have had no need for the "system beep" sound that I know of. I know if I'm pressing a key for 30 seconds, I guess? Someone may be able to expound upon how I must've messed up connecting a wire or how muting this might be bad or how maybe my case's system beep is dead/dying, but this fix got rid of my static and that's all I want.

Hopefully this'll help some of you. Just thought I'd put this out there. This thread and another seemed to be a nice repository of a handful of solutions. Good luck!

Hey guys, is it just me or is the realtek website not working properly? The first link keeps saying "Object has moved here" and it just goes into a loop.

The second link works but none of the download links works =/

Anyone else having problems or is it just me?

I had a similar problem and had to go else where to find the updates but that was about a month ago... and I forgot to bookmark the site...

But here is a page that has the link for 2.60

|MG| Realtek High Definition Audio for VistaWin 7 2.60 Download

R2.62 is available from here. Neither of those two links worked for me.

Thanks,

Installing newer drivers from Realtek results in SRS Premium Sound not working anymore. Why is that?

Had the same thing with the R2.62, so I haven't even bothered to try this version. Thanks for telling that it doesn't even work with it.

I couldn't get SRS back by just going back to R2.61 (or was it .60...) I had to rollback the system to before installing.

So I'm interested in this too, how to fix it and what causes it?

(The last working version is 6363, was that the 2.60 or 2.61?)
