How can I uninstall Dell Audio and only have the legacy Realtek Driver and Software in my XPS 14 (L421x)?
I installed some time age the default audio driver that I got from "Dell Drivers", this installed the "Dell Audio" + "MAXX AUDIO 4". I already uninstalled this thing, run CCleaner, deleted the folders, and downloaded and installed the legacy Realtek R 2.73 driver, but this thing (Dell Audio) is always installing with the driver.
My system audio is ridiculously loud. I need to put my system audio in somewhat 5~15 / 100% to get "normal audio", the only way I get realistic"normal audio range" is using my SteelSeries Wireless Headset with USB, this way the system audio goes to 100% automatically and I control the audio with the scroll located in the headset, even in 100% max audio, I get a "normal 100%", it's loud, but not EXTREME like the notebook audio!
Another problem, when I plugin my Apple Earpods, they simple doesn't work, I already tested them with tons of devices at home, and they are working great. The system doesn't even recognize them.
I think that everything would be resolved if I could install the Leagacy Realtek drivers & software, not this *** loaded with bloatware from Dell, I don't care about "MAXX Audio", "MaxxSense" and all this BS. If you look with attention, all the settings located in this "Dell Audio" menu are the same in the Realtek Software, but with some "swag", that for me is nothing!
Another bad thing, with this dell driver I get three softwares in "Auto start", they are:
- C:\Program Files\Realtek\Audio\HDA\RAVBg64.exe /MAXX4
- C:\Program Files\Realtek\Audio\HDA\RAVBg64.exe /IM
- C:\Program Files\Realtek\Audio\HDA\RtkNGUI64.exe -s
With the legacy one, I would get only one or two. I have a SAGER NP9370, high-end notebook for gaming, and in this one I have the legacy Realtek driver, and the audio is superb, no bloatware, nothing!
In resume, the problems:
- Very loud audio from notebook
- Audio-jack not working
- Dell Blotware
The solution:
- Give me the legacy Realtek driver
