    UAD vs. HDA Drivers Dell XPS


    I just received a new XPS 15 9500 in the mail today and intend to open and set up this weekend. It's replacing a XPS 13 9350 (a few years old now). Minor complaint I've had with the XPS 13 is that newer UAD (audio) drivers are incompatible (no sound or simply won't install) and you are stuck using legacy HDA drivers that aren't updated as often. In looking at the file size of the audio drivers for the XPS 15 9500 (Dell's web site) it appears they are also the legacy HDA drivers. Has anyone tried installing UAD from Microsoft Catalog or similar...i.e. generic without MaxxAudio or other enhancements? I've had good luck with the UAD on my desktop and with the new Realtek Audio Control app. Would like to use these on my laptop(s) as well. Thanks.

    Windows version will be Windows 10 Pro 20H2

    :)

    For ASUS UAD Realtek drivers and Sonic Suite

    oh lucky ASRock users! *Biggrin

    ASRock has just posted the v6.0.1.8619 FF00 HDA driver on their web site (found this listed for an ASRock B365 Phantom Gaming 4 motherboard in the Windows 7 64bit drivers section; the Windows 10 64bit drivers section lists the 8597 UAD driver instead for that board)

    8612 recently mentioned on MUC but a UAD driver (not HDA); expect few to no new HDA drivers on MUC as most of the time, new drivers on there are usually UAD

    Edit 1/23: Since I had v8606 HDA on most systems, I will definitely update to v8619 FF00 HDA and download the 8619 HDA driver from ASRock, not from Necacom (as what Soxa suggested earlier)

    Determine the HDA Realtek driver needed for your Audio

    Thank you. I'll try to ask them. Hopefully I get a response *Biggrin.

    P.S I did a clean install of everything realtek wise. Used DDU to remove the drivers and Driver explorer to double check any remnants.

    UAD vs. HDA Drivers Dell XPS

    Realtek Audio Console REQUIRES a Realtek HD (UAD) Driver!!

    Here's the issue. You saw that driver you linked for my Mobo on the Asrock driver page. It actually doesn't work with the Realtek Audio Console at all. This is why I'm looking for a newer one that would work or figure out the reason it's not working.
