I can't install this 6.0.1.8356 on Asrock motherboard
I found version 8.0.1.8356 file size 173.94 MB with installer - this version work on anyway motherboards

actually the 8356 drivers include several INF files that support only subsys IDs beginning with "1043", like my friend's ASUS M5A78L-M LE/USB3 board that uses hardware ID "HDAUDIO\FUNC_01&VEN_10EC&DEV_0887&SUBSYS_10438576" - mentioned in the HDXRT4.INF file.
edit: Oooohh! I spotted that hardware ID "HDAUDIO\FUNC_01&VEN_10EC&DEV_0887&SUBSYS_104385C8" mentioned in that HDXRT4.INF file ; definitely update the Realtek ALC887 audio driver on my friend's ASUS board to v8356 instead of v8351 since that INF file supports those IDs mentioned.
Microsoft may post up more 8351 and/or 8356 drivers in the future.
Installed the new driver and i must say that it sounds pretty good actually. Don't know if its better than previous one but this one is a keeper for me. I do think it sounds a little more natural but i am not sure.
Hurricane, are you on ASUS ?
