Default Realtek High Definition Audio doesn't install properly


I had the same problem. Follow these steps:

Go to Device Manager. Inside "System Drivers" that is a Microsoft UAA
Bus Driver for High Definition Audio. Right click it and DISABLE. Right
click it again and UNINSTALL. Now you are able to start SETUP.exe and
install realtek driver.

This problems happens because windows added its own driver and it does
not allow realtek driver to complete its installation.

Default This worked perfectly!

Had "no audio device", although the RealTek HD driver seemed to be working properly.

Received "RealTek Driver Install failed!!" msg..

Uninstalled the UAA driver, installed RealTek, and reinstalled UAA... works great!
(All that was required to re-install UAA was right-click on "System Devices" and selecting "Scan for new devices".

Default Hope this helps someone...

Windows would not let me simply uninstall the UAA driver, it complained that it is required for system boot. To get around it, I first disabled the UAA driver, then uninstalled it. After I installed the audio driver from the manufacturer's website, everything worked fine.
Thanks for your help!

I'm using an ASUS M2N-MX SE PLUS motherboard with onboard audio enabled
in the
BIOS. Also using WinXP Pro with all the latest patches.

At some point, I decided to disabled the audio device within the BIOS
and I was able to fully install the driver from Realtek, but if I go
back and re-enable the onboard audio.. still the same issue, no sound
and the device manager still show a problem with High Definition Audio
driver.

I also tried to uninstall the High Definition Audio driver from the
device manager, but I'm getting an error saying that it's not possible
to remove it because it is required for booting the OS.

I saw a couple of threads on similar issue, but can't find a clear
solution for that.

Please help me with this issue.

Thanks.

The latest version of the Realtek HD Audio driver is 2.01, so 1.78 is pretty
dated.

You can download the latest version here

http://www.realtek.com.tw/downloads/...&GetDown=false

If the direct link breaks, you can get it from http://www.realtek.com.tw

you probably need to install the MS UAA driver; search for it, install it,
then install the realtek again.

I had install the Microsoft Universal Audio Architecture (UAA) 888111

The key seems to be, disabling UAA and removing UAA. Then
try the RealTek driver install again. I believe the RealTek
package has its own copy of 888111, so as soon as you remove
UAA, the ReakTek package should put it back.

Too bad we have no idea what the problem was as you failed to quote the
