14 DAY TRIAL // Just now, Realtek has made available its 2.76 HD Audio driver compatible with Microsoft’s Windows Vista, 7, 8, and 8.1 operating systems (both 32- and 64-bit variants), which comes after almost a year since the previous Realtek HD Audio 2.75 release.
If applied, this newly-outed package installs the 6.0.1.7487 audio version (compared to build 7246) and the same 6.0.1.6650 HDMI version as its former release. Also, Realtek’s present driver adds support for new ALC codecs: ALC891, ALC667, ALC236, ALC256, and ALC293.
However, bear in mind that, even though this update might be compatible with other OSes as well, we don’t recommend installing it on platforms other than the ones above.
When it comes to applying this build, just confirm that your system configuration is supported, get the appropriate downloadable package for your bit architecture, and run the available setup with administrator rights.
Afterwards, wait for all the required files to be extracted, click on the “Next” button, and allow the installer to apply the new update. Once finished, if not requested automatically, we recommend that you manually perform a system reboot to allow all changes take effect properly.
That being said, download Realtek HD Audio Driver 2.76, take into account all aforementioned aspects, and constantly check with our website in order to stay “updated one minute ago.”
