Realtek Audio Console REQUIRES a Realtek HD (UAD) Driver!!

The above driver as stated by erpster4, it is for gigabyte laptops.

Do you have a gigabyte desktop motherboard?

Thanks for your quick response
I used it because he said (might work for most Gigabyte desktop boards but not all of them)

It is possible that it is my motherboard (GIGABYTE B660M DS3H DDR4) does not work with it

If so, where can I find a suitable definition other than the official website because the definition there is old (6.0.9313.1) date: Aug 08, 2022

I would install 9313 and then install muc updates (which is 9563) on top of it.

And if you need to update the extension inf, then go to a newer gigabyte motherboard and see if it has your hardware id.

thank you very much

normally there's really no need to update the realtek device extension inf file unless somehow windows update suddenly offers an update for it and if it detect an old version of an extension inf for JOKER77's Gigabyte board.

the only way to update the realtek device extension inf file are to either use DriverStore Explorer (RAPR) to manually uninstall/remove the extension inf (from the Extensions section of Driverstore Explorer) and then add & install a new version from the realtek audio driver package (it will have an "ExtRtk_9xxx" folder) from the manufacturer or motherboard maker. updating extension INFs are not as easy or simple as with the realtek audio codec & software component inf driver packages (which those can be updated thru device manager; realtek device extension infs, not so much). AND Realtek device extension INF packages are not available from MS Catalog, most of the time.

Publishing Extension INFs to Windows update requires you to select automatic driver promotion checkboxes on your shipping label. The reason Extension INFs cannot be published as optional is because they are not listed in Device Manager for an end user to initiate an “Update Driver” action.

btw, Gigabyte also offers 6.0.9437.1 and 6.0.9496.1 versions for their some of their recent BRIX mini PC barebone series. even though these versions are listed for these BRIX barebone PC series, they work on most Gigabyte boards (including mine) as well as these versions have all of the necessary INF files included.

Where are the latest Realtek HDA for ALC889?

you are asking in the wrong thread. this thread is for UAD/DCH drivers only
ask here instead for HDA driver versions to avoid confusing other people.

I was in this problem recently where I accidentally deleted it and couldn't get it back
But after searching, I found it in this link https://apps.microsoft.com/store/det...l/9P2B8MCSVPLN
the link downloads it directly from the Microsoft Store in device. What is very strange is that I could not find it in the in search in into store, but this is Microsoft

Thanks for sharing. It works fine on a Gigabyte b660

a 6.0.9618.1 Gigabyte version was recently released from Gigabyte's IPC site > GigaIPC.com

it matches the 6.0.9618.1 MSI version released about a week ago.

IPC = industrial pc
