   I'm very angry now. My CPU was unstable with the old BIOS so I was told to upgrade BIOS because new BIOS solved this and it's true , it solved my overheating problem but I'm no more able to use any Realtek driver since. It's installed in the BIOS but it simply won't install work in Windows. The driver acts like it installs but it doesn't because once the PC restarted .... the driver is not listed anywhere and not available. Really Asrock ? We just had to choose between having sound or a overheating CPU ? I want a solution please . We need a solution. I see here I'm not the only one . I updated to the last BIOS of the 09-08-2024. I paid this PC 4000$ and really, I'll be stucked using only HDMI sound forever ? Come on Asrock !!

	Having this exact same issue after flashing the latest bios version (10.1). Onboard audio is enabled in bios but the device is not showing up in win 11 device manager. Tried clearing CMOS, reverting biso to ver 9.01, updating realtek win drivers but nothing works.

	I purchased a SoundBlaster Play! 3 USB sound card so I can use my speakers. It's working well. I'm still concerned about the update doing something I can't see though.

	Same issue, after update realtek audio does not show up in Device Manager. Have gone into BIOS and disabled/re-enabled HD Audio. Have downloaded and reinstalled driver. Nothing working. Fortunately, headphones work.

	Hi, I just upgraded my bios to 9.01 on my Z790 Riptide Wifi motherboard. Now there is no sound. Windows says there are no output devices found and the Device Manager doesn't show the Realtek hardware under sound devices. It was working fine before the bios update. Thanks.
