OS requirements : Windows 10 64 bit or more recent.
Hardware requirements (AMD) : ASUS ROG/TUF/PRIME motherboards with AMD 3xx/4xx/5xx/6xx series chipsets (except ROG with ALC40xx).
Hardware requirements (Intel) : ASUS ROG/TUF/PRIME motherboards with Intel 2xx/3xx/4xx/5xx/6xx/7xx series chipsets (except ROG with ALC40xx).

Note : In order to know which drivers package to use, match the audio specifications of your motherboard with the apps or ask me.


TIPS :

If you want to manage the drivers (remove old/unused drivers for example) that you have in your Windows DriverStore
Use Driver Store Explorer (Right click on "Rapr.exe" > Run as administrator).

If you want better interrupts delivery latency
Enable MSI (Message Signaled-based Interrupts) mode on all your supported devices (see the column "supported modes") with
MSI Mode Utility (Right click on "MSI_Mode_Utility_v3.exe" > Run as administrator).

If you experience crackling, popping, audio stutter
Disable hibernation (Fast Startup included).

Hi,

Don't talk nonsense & make erroneous assertion which could generate confusion for newcomers :

Realtek Audio : 6.0.xxxx.1 version syntax.
Realtek USB Audio : 6.3.9600.xxxx version syntax.



You have an ASUS ROG SS3|DTS Sound Unbound motherboard with ALC408x codec, so :

You need Realtek USB Audio Drivers (UAD - ASUS ROG SS3-DTS MB) from the first post of this thread : [DRIVERS] Realtek USB Audio (MB | Intel 5xx/6xx/7xx & AMD 5xx/6xx/TRX40).

Follow scrupulously your CLEANUP process then your INSTALL process, for the next drivers packages that I would release, you will can directly follow your UPDATE process.

Hey MoKiChU, thanks - I followed the suggestion method you provided - words for words and still getting the Application Error on the NhNotifSys.exe file during 2nd clean unattended install. Maybe something else is going on that causing Application error popup.

- Follow scrupulously your CLEANUP process
- Use this SS3 Cleaner tool (Right click on "A-Volute_SS3_Cleanup.exe" > Run as administrator) then restart your PC

- Avoid ZoneID blocking trouble :

- For each downloaded .zip : ZoneID unblock the .zip (Right click on the .zip file > Properties > Check the box Unblock > OK).

or

- Disable the ZoneID blocking completely (you will no longer have to unblock each downloaded .zip) :

- Right-click Windows Start button then click Launch then type gpedit.msc > OK
- User Configuration > Administrative Templates > Windows Components > Attachment Manager
- Do not preserve zone information in file attachment : Enabled > OK


- Redownload needed drivers package from the first post of this thread.
- ZoneID unblock the .zip (Only if you have not disabled the ZoneID blocking) : Right click on the .zip file > Properties > Check the box Unblock > OK.

If you still have RPC service issue :

- Services tab : Check that DcomLaunch, RpcEptMapper & RtkAudioUniversalService services running.

- Right click on your Realtek Audio Control/Console app icon > App settings > Reset

@MokiChU, thanks for the drivers update - greatly appreciate it and be well. I just want to following up on the previous issue I had regarding the Application error on NnNotifSys.exe file. I found out it is related to one of the .Net Framework components I had removed which caused that error in my custom unattended Windows image. Restoring the particular component for .NET Framework cleared the Application error during the unattended which I'm able resolved. Again, thanks MokiChU.

Hello, is there any driver or something to amplify the sound of the SPDIF optical output of my Asus Tuf Gaming Z690 D4 board? I use the application Equaliser Apo and a little if that amplify but it is insufficient. In my previous board (a Z370-E Gaming and some modified drivers from Techpowerup website, these in particular https://www.techpowerup.com/forums/threads/unlocked-realtek-hd-audio-drivers-for-windows-10-dolby-di... post #206), it was much louder, much more forceful and without distortion.

Is there any way to get that under this Z690 board and Windows 11? Thanks.

Hi,

You have an ASUS TUF DTS Audio Processing motherboard, so :

You need Realtek Audio Drivers (UAD - ASUS TUF/PRIME DTS AP MB) from the first post of this thread.

Follow scrupulously your CLEANUP process then your INSTALL process, for the next drivers packages that I would release, you will can directly follow your UPDATE process.

Note : Amp level should be configured via Realtek Audio Control, also, you don't need to use an external EQ, yours is in the DTS Audio Processing.

Thanks so much for these. I swapped motherboards from an X570 TUF to X570 Crosshair, and couldn't get audio working. Your packages saved me. One quick question; is there any way to have the drivers installed such that Armory crate recognizes them and doesn't try to install them itself? All the other drivers that AC wants to manage (AMD Chipset, Intel LAN, Realtek LAN) recognize when newer versions are installed from other sources (either installers or windows update drivers), but AC doesn't see a current version for these drivers at all.
