Solved RealTek Audio Chip

HungC · May 9, 2009

Hi there,

7 may 2009: My notebook recommended me to download the latest driver of NVIDIA. I had to go the following site: Drivers - Download NVIDIA Drivers. So I went to the wedsite and I downloaded a new driver. After I installed it, I had to restart my notebook. So I did it. But when I was at my frontpage, the error following error appeared: Notification Tool for the RealTek Audio Chip is stop working again. We're looking for a solution. But it couldn't find any solutions. So, can someone help me to solve this problem & what is 'RealTek Audio Chip'? BTW: I also reïnstalled the driver, but the same problem appeared >.<

Extra information:

Searched for:

# Product Type: GeForce
# Product Series: GeForce 9M Series (notebook)
# Operating System: Windows Vista 32-bit
# Language: English (UK)

My notebook's NVIDIA information:

# An Acer Notebook
# Type Notebook: 32-bit ofcourse
# DirectX Version: DirectX 10
# Chiptype: NVIDIA GeForce 9600M GT
# DAC-type: Intergrated RAMDAC

Please help me to solve this problem :whistling:

I already ask peoples at RealTek Audio Chip (v185.85) - NVIDIA Forums, but nothing helped :sick:

Hello Hung, and welcome to Vista Forums.

What is the model number for your Acer notebook? This way we can look up your computer's specs to make sure that we can recommend the correct drivers for it.

Hi, Thanks
But, how can I find my model number? :huh:
Sorry for the noobness

It's an Acer Aspire 6935G (I'm not sure this is the model number, but it's a try) :D

Ooh, and thanks for fast reply *cheers*

Ok Hung,

Laptops will sometimes require specific drivers for that model. This is a link to Acer for you all drivers for you notebook. You will just need to select Notebook, Aspire, and Aspire 6935G to see them. Installing the driver for Audio should help.

Service & Support

Hope this helps,
Shawn

Oke, but if I downloaded it, it's a wordpad document. Do you know how I can change it into a setup or something like that?

Brink · May 9, 2009

You would need to select the Driver tab instead of Document tab above the listed downloads instead before downloading it.

After saving the ZIP file, you will just need to extract the driver files from the ZIP file to see them.

HungC · May 9, 2009

It's not working, to download the setup instead of a document :cry:

If you don't believe me, just watch those pictures: :D

Ooh, as you can see, I'm from Holland. So, I have a Dutch version of Firefox and my English is bad + I selected the tab Driver.

Brink · May 9, 2009

It looks like you have it being saved somewhere else. Give it a try in Internet Explorer to see if that helps. After I saved the ZIP download and extracted the files in it, I see the setup file.

HungC · May 9, 2009

I (think that I) removed all files. And guess... it's still a wordpad document. As you can see, the wordpad is standard for opening things that I download

. Perhaps, do you know how I can change that?

Brink · May 9, 2009

If it opens WordPad when you try to open the ZIP file, then merge the REG file in this tutorial below to restore the built-in ZIP assocations in Vista. Afterwards see if you can open and extract the files like you see in my second image above.

Wow Brink, Got it! I'll make a picture for prove, but I don't that's necesarry :D
Not I'm gonna try to install the setup

Brink · May 9, 2009

Hope it works for you.

HungC · May 9, 2009

After I installed it, my background was very crazy. It was like windows classic or something like that. So, I decided to restart my notebook. Now I've got my normal background. Do you maybe know how that could happen? :huh:

Ooh btw, it's version 1.92 (from Acer's site). But the latest version is 2.22 :shock:

Is it an another version or is it an another program?

Brink · May 9, 2009

Not sure why it did that. Is it working ok afterwards though?

It's a different version. Laptops usually require different drivers than desktops, so it's best to get your drivers for them directly from Acer, or make sure that they are for notebooks when getting them from a device manufacturer instead (ex: NVIDIA with the M instead).

HungC · May 9, 2009

Yup, the sound works good. But... I can choose between film, standard, rock, pop, classic and game. But if I choose for rock, the sound won't change to rock, it sounds like standard

But I think I gonna reïnstall my notebook. Perhaps that will help. But I've to sleep soon. So I've got no time to do that today (GMT+1)

Brink · May 9, 2009

I hope it does. See after you get some rest.

HungC · May 10, 2009

Wooohooo
No problems at the moment

Thanks for you help Brink! You're great :party:

Brink · May 11, 2009

You're welcome Hung. I'm happy to hear that it seems to be sorted.

Actually I have exactly the same issues with the Realtek Notificiation tool. Since the latest Vista updates 2 days ago I suddenly also get this warning that my notification tool no longer works on my Acer Aspire 6930. I have also tried re-installing the Realtek audio drivers from the official Acer support website, the sound works ok but I constantly keep getting the message YOUR REALTEK NOTIFICATION TOOL NO LONGER WORKS , then it supposedly searches for solutions, doesnt find solutions and then you need to click the warning away. So what am I supposed to do to remove this absurd warning every time we start up the laptop ? PS, I also tried reinstalling new Nvidia drivers but that didnt work either.
