AHCI installation every time on startup?  

These drivers are working well for your Realtek Chip (ALC888)

Latest Realtek HD Audio Driver Version - Page 94 - Windows 10 Forums

and I'm using 11.7.4 on the Intel AHCI (Raid shown below but same driver)

Thanks alot, I actually found it difficult to get the latest drivers from reliable sources, most websites that claim to provide drivers are shady at best and sometimes don't even work.

Anyway I got the AHCI/RAID driver set, what do I need to do to upgrade the audio driver? simply update?

Edit: ok, that was the easy part, the only thing Im missing now is the Intel shipset so called 'INF' driver, manually downloading and installing that gives me an error message.

Is that the Current Realtek Audio Driver or before you Updated? cos the pic shows a 2012 Driver , not the one I linked to above.

Our X58 MB are considered "5 Series" MBs and the Latest INF for them is in the 9 series...

I am using this one MEGA

which is talked about on the WinRaid Forums here :
