I went to realtek and dowloaded an audio driver as I saw on you tube. Please don't rely on YouTube to give you sensible advice. Realtek only offer generic drivers that will not be properly matched to your hardware. Assuming you have a branded computer like Dell or Lenovo, go to their site to downlo...
