install UAA first, reboot, then retry the realtek hd driver install.

this is a very common issue, the realtek "fine print" should tell you
this.


The RealTek installer includes a copy of UAA, but judging by
the size, may only include the English version. So it is possible
for the ReakTek installer to work for some people.

The MSHDQFE folder in the RealTek package, contains UAA. The whole
package (something like 25 languages) can be obtained from Microsoft.
