Realtek audio driver

My dell 546 has the VIA HD audio installed, but i want to change this for the Realtek HD audio software codec ALC888/888s. I try to update driver but it tells me the system currently has the latest one, this doesn't bother me i prefer the Realtek software and want to find a way to put it on. I have replaced VIA sound drivers and software for Realtek/Avance in the past. Even had an old system with an AMD audio chip and realtek worked perfect on that also.

I'm not able to find anything that will work with the Dell audio. You could try a third-party driver. The worst that could happen is you'd have to roll it back.

I don't know that it will actually work to force the drivers but you can get them from the realtek site
