  1. Windows wont let me install a better Audio driver


    A while back i installed the Supreme FX software for my motherboard,but Asus in their wisdom are about 40 versions of the Realtek driver behind so i uninstalled it

    And since then i have upgraded to Windows 1803

    I have the latest Realtek driver downloaded and extracted and put in a folder
    When i go to the installed version through Device manager and select update and then tell it where to look it tells me "the best driver is installed" - well it isnt , my driver is 6.0.1.8273 , which is from last year sometime ?

    Anyway i want the latest Realtek driver installed , how can i install it ?
    Windows always thinking it knows best , well this time its completely wrong

    Any help would be greatly received

    Thanks
    Dan

    i dont think anyone here understands what your asking either when its nearly a 90% english dominated Tech forum.
    Step 1
    reinstall windows from scratch
    Step 2
    install all drivers from the cd that came with the god damn motherboard *common sense*
    Step 3
    update windows
    Step 4
    install misc etc crap like flash java etc etc
    Step 5
    Install GPU drivers
    Step 6
    go back to using your pc without issue.
