Hi,
I recently bought a laptop and experienced your own problem. I was having trouble with a free DAW (Cakewalk) since I could not hear anything from the internal sound card (Realtek too) and that cause also an explorer crash that force me to reboot each time.

I managed to solve like this: I went to the sound card in device management (Win+R, type devmgmt.msc) and restored the previuos version of the driver from the Driver tab.
Now I have only 1 entry in ASIO Panel for my audio board (previuosly I had like 5, and their name was somethin' like "Realtek .... with HAP"), and now I also have at least 2 choices in the bit depth panel of the Main sound device in Windows.

Really don't know why but finally I can use Cakewalk without any problem.
Hope it helps.

Which driver is currently working for you?
