I try to install it, but it tells me that the driver is not found and it cannot install the controller. I have tried uninstalling and rebooting but that didn't work. When I look in the Device Manager there is a yellow question mark next to the Multimedia Audio Controller and it tells me that the program is not working properly. I'm stumped, please HELP!!!


If this is a laptop then it has Realtek AC'97 audio go here http://www.realtek.com.tw/downloads/...tDown=false#AC

Tick I accept the above – wait till site resets then click Next

Download the (Executable file) save to desktop, double click downloaded file on desktop to install

The site is slow

Set a System Restore Point before installing drivers just in case
Start / All Programs / Accessories / System Tools / System Restore / select Create a restore point and follow instructions
