[DRIVERS] Realtek Audio (Intel 2xx/3xx/4xx/5xx/6xx/7xx & AMD 3xx/4xx/5xx/6xx)

I also managed to install this driver on windows 11, it works as I expected!

- Install your audio drivers by redownloading the drivers package (SS3 MB) then unblock the .zip (Right click on the .zip file > Properties > Check the box Unblock > OK) before unzip, then follow your INSTALL process (SS3 MB).

Which one should I be installing if I have a x370 crosshair vi motherboard?

Please tell me which audio driver to install for the motherboard of the Asus Strix Z270E Gaming. I tried all versions, but Sonic Studio 3 does not start, an error - The current system is not supported, or the audio driver is installed incorrectly. TIMEOUT."
Installation and removal was carried out according to the instructions.
Audio output is carried out to the monitor via the Nvidia audio driver.
Windows 10 Pro 21H1 OS.

I have a ROG Maximux X Hero - is this a SS3 motherboard?

can i also install the basic RTK driver if i don't want SS3? what's the advantage to SS3 - just fx, equalizer, etc?

ASUS ROG STRIX B550-F GAMING
which driver should i use?

I did a clean install of Windows. But sonic studio crashes. It won't open.
It crashes even though I did everything as you said.
Is the driver you published compatible with the latest windows updates?
What would you suggest I do?

Hey!

Decided to go with clean Win11 install and used Driver Store Explorer to remove all pre-installed drivers out of the new system.

Issue is - the new 9238 driver gives me sound cutting out issue on Win11 - happens with both system and various application sounds quite frequently.
Installed Win10 - no repro.

Mobo - z390 Maximus Hero.

Could someone please share if you've encountered something similar and if yes, is there something I can try to do to fix it?

Many thanks in advance!

I've gone with a clean install of Windows 11 Pro, did the driver store explorer, SS3 Cleaner, even Display Driver Uninstaller's Realtek cleanup with Driver Store Explorer to ensure everything was gone then followed up to ensure all folders were gone too (all while in safe mode). Then reinstalled latest ROG SS3 with DTS drivers for my system, Rog Strix x570-F Gaming. Windows 11 Pro immediately found and installed from the Microsoft Store Realtek Audio Console and Sonic Studio 3.

Issue having is while watching movies or playing games, random system hang. This only happens while Sonic Studio 3 / SS3 drivers are installed. If I install the realtek drivers without SS3 this issue does not occur, however I lose my surround sound (thanks ASUS!)...

System worked perfect prior to Upgrade to Windows 11 Pro.

Any suggestions?

You may find a fix to this is finding an offline copy of DirectX installer and running it to ensure your DirectX is fully installed. Often, if you have Steam installed, look for your Steamworks Common Redistributable (under tools) and browse the file location you may find them there. Microsoft doesn't provide them on their site anymore sadly.

Thanks MoKiChU:)
