At this point, I can’t do anything without their permission but in time they will come to my shop asking for help on some issue. I tried to see if it was working but the IT department put a block in my attempts -or anyone else- to find out. Our IT guy never bothered to tell me it was already in. To my surprise, this video showed me that I indeed have the Realtek Driver installed- version 6.
I saw a you tube video titled 'Realtek HD Audio Manager Windows 10 not showing (FIXED). This worked great with Audacity but it I now have my amplifier plugged in my speakersound bar because its the only way I get sound from my amplifier but I lost my ability to use Audacity.
Before my computer was reformatted, I plugged my vintage audio amplifier into the 3.5mm headphone jack on the front of my computer.
