  1. Realtek HD Audio Drivers missing after installing driver update for AMD Graphics Card


    Not sure if this is the right place for this but I'm desperate so here goes,

    I recently installed some new drivers for my graphics card, but after doing so, my audio completely stopped working. Following a guide found online, I went into the the device manager and noticed that the Realtek HD Audio driver was missing even with show hidden devices enabled. As such, I went to my motherboard manufacturer's website and downloaded the most recent drivers available. After running the installer, the PC restarted and to my dismay, the drivers still weren't listed in the device manager nor anywhere else.

    One forum post I found suggested going into the Realtek folder in program files and running the audio manager from there. Strangely, there was no realtek folder in my program files. Not even after installing the most recent driver.

    Lastly, I already tried updating windows to the most recent version, which didn't yield any results.

    Thanks in advance for any help. Here are my specs if relevant:
    CPU: AMD FX-6300

    MOBO: GA-97A-DS3P
    GPU: RX 580

    :)

    I had the realtek error when using the installer, so I did these step and It Worked

    1.Go Open up device manager
    2. Go under sound,video, and game controllers
    3. Find Realtek High Definition Audio
    4. Right click and hit update driver
    5. Browse my computer for driver software
    6. Let me pick from a list of available drivers on my computer
    7. Click Have Disk and hit browse
    8. Click on the Realtek HD Audio mod folder and look for win64
    9. Click on the HDXRT4 and click ok,
    10. Click Next and Yes
    After it is done, restart the PC

    You should be good then and also make sure before doing these steps that you have driver enforcement disabled.

    Realtek HD Audio Drivers missing after installing driver update for AMD Graphics Card

    AMD audio driver requires further installation

    Hi Peter, AMD HD Audio drivers are generally part of your Graphics card installation

    If you have uninstalled those drivers, you will need to re-install your Graphics card driver software to re-install the AMD Audio drivers . . .

    The AMD Catalyst software suite is packaged with the driver for the AMD High Definition Audio Device:
