    Is installing two sound drivers on one audio device possible?


    Hi good day, I recently got Dolby audio premium sound drivers installed on my PC, it works fine and I'm in love with it but it also installs on my microphone, and it has reduced the sound quality of my microphone and has fewer options in the windows advanced properties. The previous driver I had Realtek High Definition Audio worked well with the microphone. So I am wondering is there a way to have two audio drivers on one device as my Microphone and Audio output are from the same sound card.

    Windows Build:(18363.836)

    :)

    HDMI audio driver for ASUS X551M laptop?

    This is from Intel regarding hdmi:
    • Install the latest Intel® Graphics Driver, this also installs the latest audio codecs for HDMI.
    • After driver installation, connect to the HDMI TV or digital display, using a HDMI cable.
    • Select HDMI audio as your default playback device. Click Start>Control Panel>Hardware and Sound.
    • Click Sound. The Playback tab lists the audio playback devices for your computer.
    • Right-click on the device for HDMI audio, and select Set as Default Device.

    Problem installing the driver software for my audio device: 'IDT High Definition Audio CODEC' device problem

    Thank you very much for your help. I did finally find the solution that worked for me.

    I used solution #3 on this Windows help page. See below.

    Fix sound problems

    Try these steps ( ):


    • Open Start, enter Device Manager, and select it from the list of results. Under
      Sound, video, and game controllers, select your sound card, open it, select the
      Driver tab, and select Update Driver. If Windows doesn't find a new driver, look for one on the device manufacturer's website and follow their instructions.

    • If those steps didn't work, try uninstalling your audio driver: open Device Manager, right-click (or tap and hold) the audio driver, and select
      Uninstall. Restart your device and Windows will attempt to reinstall the driver.

    • If that didn't work, try using the generic audio driver that comes with Windows. Here's how: in
      Device Manager, right-click (or tap and hold) your audio driver >
      Update driver software... > Browse my computer for driver software
      > Let me pick from a list of device drivers on my computer, select
      High Definition Audio Device, select Next, and follow the instructions to install it.
