I installed latest Realtek driver and now Dolby Home Theatre tells me
drivers do not match. Can't find any downloads on Dolby site, not any
mention of Dolby on motherboard driver disk. Any ideas?

Hi, I don't know if it would solve the "out of sync" problem bescribed
in this topic, but I didn't see if anybody write about that the Dolby Home
Theatre works just fine with newer Realtek drivers actually. I think that only
interface is not working and gives that error about 7.2.7000 vs 7.2.8000.

Try this:
Go to Playback devices in Windows 7 Start-Control Panel - Sound
Click RMB on Speakers or Digital Output (whatever you have) and than Properties
At the top you should have Dolby tab where Dolby Home Theatre v4 interface is.


Thanks for getting back to me on this. Following the instructions I get
"Current Dolby driver is 7.2.8000.13. Software application expects
7.2.7000.4"
Downloads of Realtek drivers from Realtek do not contain Dolby drivers,
AFAIK. I have a Gigabyte board, and downloading the Gigabyte sound
driver is supposed to consist of two drivers, Realtek and Dolby, that
install one after the other. The latest one I downloaded didn't. I
have all of the past Realtek drivers on disk and I suppose I could go
back through them until I found a match, but it's too much trouble. I
only have two desktop speakers.
