Windows 10: Realtek Audio driver causing blue screen

Recently installed Windows 10 home v 1903. Did not come with Realtek drivers installed for speakers, only nvidia for my GPU. After downloading the driver from Realteks site and running the setup everything seems to go fine, restart the computer and right away windows has not auto installed the driver. Going into devices I'm able to add the audio driver but I get the error 10 code when it's finished installing. No roll-back option but I can update it to the newer version when I drop I get this screen before it completes




Alternatively, I go to the MSI website and download the Realtek driver they have listed for my mobo, go through the same steps without windows auto installing and I get the same blue screen when I try to add legacy hardware


MSI has Realtek HD Universal Driver v 6.0.1.8720 as what is recommended


I've done two clean installs of windows 10, reformatting the SSD on another desktop, and I've tried installing this driver before and after doing available windows updates on the off chance that was making a difference. I've gone into the BIOS arms made sure audio was enabled and all downloads and programs were uninstalled before trying a new one.


My setup:

MSI X370 Gaming Plus motherboard

AMD Ryzen 1700 CPU

MSI Geforce 1050 Gaming X 2G

WD 250G SSD

WD 1TB HDD

2 x 8GB Corsair Vengeance 3200mhz DDR4 RAM

EVGA Gold 850W G3 PSU
