    So I've been having problems with my audio drivers for the past 5 days, when I enter my device manager I get 2 different errors randomly:*This device cannot start. Code 10 {Operation Failed} The requested operation was unsuccessful.*This device cannot start. Code 10 Insufficient system resources exist to complete the API.And sometimes I have no error but I have no audio, so what I do as a temporary fix is click on update driver and if I get the option to roll back driver it fixes temporary my audio but then I hear like a sizzling and then my audio disappears again and I get one of the 2 er

    The Ultimate Realtek HD Audio Driver Mod for Windows 10

    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.

    Can't uninstall Realtek Audio Drivers


    any audio driver such as realtek should be un-installed through the Programs and Features control panel or the Sound, video and game controllers section of Device Manager, not the Audio inputs and outputs section of Device Manager.

    if you are removing the realtek audio drivers thru Device Manager, expand the Sound, video and game controllers section, right-click on Realtek High Definition Audio, choose Uninstall AND check the checkbox that says "Delete the driver software for this device" (which is the most important step). Then restart the computer to complete the uninstallation.
