    Realtek Driver Stops Working


    It used to be a rare thing, but now it happens about every two hours that I am on the computer.

    I will hear the hard drive spool up or hear a loud buzz when watching YouTube and my Realtek audio driver stops working.

    When that happens the music stops coming out of my add on speaker system and starts coming from my monitors.

    I get a Windows box asking ' Which device did you plug in?" Even though nothing was plugged in.

    I have tried disabling all the other audio drivers and that changed nothing.

    I believe this started when I added the Realtek? Software that allowed me to plug headphones into my Dell Tower.

    Before doing that the headphone jack on the front of my Dell Tower did nothing.


    My computer specs:
    Windows 10 Home x64 Version 1909 build 18363.1256

    Dell Inc. XPS 8920 1.0.22

    4.20 gigahertz Intel Core i7-7700K

    IntelR HD Graphics 630 [Display adapter]

    NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1070 [Display adapter]

    NVIDIA High Definition Audio

    NVIDIA Virtual Audio Device Wave Extensible WDM

    Realtek Audio


    Thanks.. Gary Moore

    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.
