| Hello, I installed the sound driver on the official site, but there is little sound from the headphones and less sound from the microphone, can you share the updated driver information? |

It's just standard Realtek ALC887/897. Personally, I wouldn't have bothered with a vendor driver. I'd have just let the OS install the default driver and leave it at that. I guess you get some sort of an extra control panel if you install Realtek software? Regardless, you should be able to control various settings from Control Panel -> Sound. From there, you can enable/disable, change levels, make default, change mic gains (Recording tab), and so on. |

The newest driver I can find for the Realtek ALC887/897 can be found here: https://www.asrock.com/mb/AMD/B840M-HVS/index.asp#Download" rel="nofollow - https://www.asrock.com/mb/AMD/B840M-HVS/index.asp#Download That board uses the same audio codec as the A520M-HVS. The Realtek ALC887/897 audio codec is used by a wide variety of boards from all manufacturers. See if the driver I listed works for you, if not then search other budget boards that have the Realtek ALC887/897 audio codec and try their drivers. I suspect the driver I linked should do the trick though. Drivers for older boards are seldom updated on their product page even if newer ones are available. -------------
