RealTek Audio drivers after Windows 11 update

RealTek Audio drivers after Windows 11 update...

I can't play music. What do I do?

yes ido

I’ve been having a similar problem for some time. Yesterday, I reset my BIOS to “ BIOS Defaults” and everything seems to be back, working as intended!!

My ‘Realtek Microphone Array’ disappeared some time ago. After trying various downloads as mentioned on this thread my Realtek Audio Speakers disappeared as well!!

I decided to try resetting BIOS and within a few minutes all my Audio settings were back working properly.

Worth a try if your having audio problems.

Hello Community!

I have got a Fujitsu laptop with the following processor: AMD Ryzen 7 PRO 5875U with Radeon Graphics.

My Audio Controllers are:

• AMD Audio Device
• AMD High Definition Audio Device
• Realtek(R) Audio

Audio output does not work anymore in any way since the laptop was updated from 23H2 to 24H2, it says no audio output device was found.

All troubleshooting, driver updating, etc. did not help at all.

Has anyone a hint for this hardware configuration?

Thanks and many regards,

Jörg

Hello community,

originally this conversation was opened for audio Problems.

Well, for weeks I get the following error:

BSOD with subsequent restart after Windows 11 update from 23H2 to 24H2.

The cmd 'eventvwr' shows: 

The computer restarted after a fatal error. 

The error code was: 0x0000007e (0xffffffffc0000005, 0xfffff80765e63a8d, 0xfffff18361166f78, 0xfffff18361166760). 

A full dump was saved to: C:\WINDOWS\Minidump\122924-17156-01.dmp. Report ID: 40d5f111-4053-4f4f-940b-9a720c8c1023.

The evaluation of the minidumpfile says that the Realtek USB audio driver (version: 6.3.9600.2330) is causing the BSOD!

Therefore, a new version is needed for my Dell XPS 15 9570 with Intel Core i7-8750H ("Coffee Lake").

Is there a newer audio driver version available/released by Dell?

..If yes, please provide the download link or post the the nwer version on the download pages.

..If no, should I use a newer driver version from manufacturer's website Realtek?

Anyway, per Dell XPS 15 9570 technical specs.

-Audio Controller = ALC3266-CG with Waves MaxxAudio Pro

Found in Dell Latitude 7370 Owners Manual - according to Realtek description:

The Laptop comes with integrated Realtek ALC3266–CG Waves MaxxAudio Pro controller.

It is a High Definition audio codec designed for Windows desktop and Laptops.

Found in other community: DO NOT INSTALL REALTEK WEBSITE DRIVER.

Anyway, tried to download (several times) the Driver 'ALC888S-VD' manufacturer's website Realtek, but received file with name:

'not confirmed 65118.crdownload' !??? - never heard that.

Can't do anything with that!

Well, after weeks of searching in various communities, one has to find out again and again that the cause of the various errors is the MS update from 23H2 to 24H2.

Therefore, MS should be helpful in finding a solution.

Kind regards
