For XP
I don't know now is for others (2000, 2003, NT)
Go to Control Panel >Sound,Speech and Audio Devices > Sounds and Audio Devices
> Select Volume and you will see under i think!!!

Another way is this

Download and install Everest Home Edition

Run the programme, click + next to computer then summary

Look on right for multimedia / audio adapter

Look at the manufacturer’s site for the suitable driver for your Operating System


If you are unable to find it, please post the make and model here before you download anything

Please set a system restore point before you install anything

Two ways are:

Click start then control panel, click sounds speech and audio then sounds and audio, on the volume label you should have the sound device listed at the top

Or

Use Everest Home, which will also provide additional imformation if required, such as if the motherboard uses chipset audio drivers

I don't know what the problem with looking at the things you are asked to and posting that is

There are a number of Realtek codecs and your " picture " doesn't say anything about the one you need

You need to check what Everest shows for multimedia / audio adapter to get the driver



[attachment=5004:attachment]

It is unlikely to specify rear output

It's better to confirm what Everest has, it's a free programme and is not large

I will look at HP

That's for the 1080, however, it is an update and may want the original files first, but worth a go
