Windows 7 and Realtek HD Audio

After installing Windows 7 my sound was very crackly and just sounded horrible. I searched around for a while trying to find a way to fix this, and found many posts with fixes for this… none that worked.

I finally found that Realtek’s drivers on their site are now updated to work with Windows 7. The site doesn’t say so, but updating to the newest drivers fixed all sound issues.

Just install the Vista driver located here and everything will be peachy.
