DooGie... I am a MASTER at making screenshots!!!!



Thank you

The latest and greatest is not available from the Realtek ftp site because the site is down for unknown reasons.

To install the latest driver from Microsoft (reportedly best sounding), version 7968 see here:
Latest Realtek HD Audio Driver Version - Page 140 - Windows 10 Forums

To download the last available driver (not the current driver) from the realtek ftp site with a setup.exe, click here - version 7962: Latest Realtek HD Audio Driver Version - Page 137 - Windows 10 Forums

I always install manually through device manager.

Click at "Audio" button since we are talking about audio drivers. Need to know which sound chip you have there. Not all are Realtek.

Duh :)



Thank you

Karen, do you get sound from your speakers if you unplug the Plantronics headset?

DooGie

I do not get any sound at all if I unplug
the Plantronics headset.

I've unplugged the headset and the speakers
and rebooted and plugged the speakers back
in and the PC doesn't acknowledge it.

They worked perfectly prior to the update

Thanks

Karen
