    Latest Realtek HD Audio Driver Version for Windows 8

    I went ahead and downloaded the 64 bit R2.75.... ran the execution file and installed without a hitch.... now it shows I have an OLDER driver installed than previously.... 6.0.1.7246 (date: 14/05/2014).... how could that happen...? Surely driver installers that do the 'uninstall current driver...

    Latest Realtek HD Audio Driver Version for Windows 8

    Hmmmm.... now I'm even more confused.... the link I speak of is at the beginning of this sticky thread by Brink and the driver version is the same format as the one I have showing in my Device manager->Sound-> Realtek HD Audio->properties->Driver No mention of R2.75. I have a Samsung laptop

    Win8.1/Ubuntu dual boot... sound issue only after OS swap

    My BIOS is Phoenix version 07PA and has a selection which reads 'UEFI support' and in the definition pane states "if enabled will allow booting to BIOS OS or UEFI OS"... that's exactly how it's written.... which seems a bit odd as most new machines have CSM or UEFI with a secure boot...

    Win8.1/Ubuntu dual boot... sound issue only after OS swap

    Having just tried a process of elimination by trying all variables I can narrow it down. It ONLY happens if I choose Restart from Ubuntu.... Shutdown and start from power button choosing to boot Windows doesn't result in the issue. Also.... the issue is ONLY at the speaker jack.... if i unplug...

    no 'Advanced Options' tab inside the Troubleshoot menu

    Win 8.1.... For me there is no 'Advanced Options' tab inside the Troubleshoot menu... so I can't alter UEFI secure boot function status in order to set up dual boot to linux.... the Troubleshoot only takes me to 'advanced startup options' menu... nothing else... No 'Refresh' or 'Reset' tabs...

    UEFI Bootable USB Flash Drive - Create in Windows

    @Akeo... I pre-format my 32GB thumb drive to FAT32 and then try to create an installer using your latest Rufus. It reports to me that it cannot use FAT32 with 'this type of ISO'.... referring to the Windows 10 TP ISO's....? MS themselves suggest that the thumb drive should be FAT32 for Win 10...
