Whether or not the manufacturer of the laptop or desktop provide their own drivers, Realtek's drivers will generally work fine but without the customizations that are provided with the original software. In most cases, these are minor and the trade-off of using the Realtek HD Audio Driver versus the ones that come pre-installed is having a more stable, and sometimes more customizable audio experience.

You can manage the Realtek High Definition Audio Driver within the device manager of Windows, though being OEM, it might be difficult to access settings without diving in deep.

PHD Guiding

PHD Guiding is designed to be 'Push Here Dummy' simple, yet provide powerful, intelligent auto-guiding of your telescope for both PCs and Macs. Connect your mount, your camera, select a star, and start guiding. That's it!

Despite actually having a Ph.D., I've always had a tough time figuring out which way North is in the guide frame, whether an axis is mirrored (and if so, which one), how that's affected by camera rotation, how many arcseconds per pixel I'm actually running at (especially since a '2x' barlow isn't always 2x), etc. This is especially tough when standing out in a cold field late at night when all you really want to do is stay warm and collect good images of your DSO.
In PHD Guiding, all calibration is taken care of automatically. You do not need to tell it anything about the orientation of your camera, nor do you need to tell it anything about the image scale. The automatic calibration routine takes care of this for you. Odds are you won't ever need to set a single parameter. Just select your star and hit 'PHD Guide' and let the software take care of it.
See submitted sample shots from users of PHD Guiding and sample shots from PHD and EQMOD
PHD Guiding (v1.14) is free. PHD is actually even better than free. PHD Guiding is open source in both the v1 version here and in the new v2 (available for Windows and Mac). Donations to help support PHD Guiding and its development are certainly appreciated. Like Public Radio, you decide if you want to contribute and how much.

History

v 1.14 (November 2012)
- All updates from pre-releases 1.13.1 - 1.13.7 (see below)

- Fixed ST4 onboard connection bug
- Will save / restore window position
1.13.x Pre-releases
- (1.13.7a) Tweak to ASCOM mount's for mounts that PulseGuide but don't support IsPulseGuiding
- (1.13.7) Oct 22, 2012 based off of OpenPHD branch/craig r107
- (1.13.7) Fixed bug in star SNR calculation. Converted mean to a double to avoid divide by zero errors (came up in 8-bit cams with 0 backgrounds)
- (1.13.7) Altered star saturation detection to also check against img.Max (global max). Low bit depth cams on faint stars were triggering b/o quantization error
- (1.13.7) Fixed several error dialogs (e.g., ASCOM Chooser for mount: if Cancel, no more exception error)
- (1.13.7) (Bret) Patch to cleanly call Scope::Connect() at end of connection routine for specific mounts (ASCOM and some Mac specific)
- (1.13.7) Fixed bug in calculation of median filter for ROI mode
- (1.13.6) Users won't see too much, but this is a very significant pre-release. The guts of PHD Guiding have been open source for some time, but now the full releases have gone open source as well via a branch off of Open PHD Guiding (the 'craig' branch). This is the beginning of a real shift in how PHD Guiding is developed as programmers across the world can now not only get the basic guts of PHD, but a 98% complete version (some hardware drivers cannot be included). Two developers have already stepped up to help out. Bret McKee did a major refactoring of the mount code and other internals and Jared Wellman has added new scripting bits. Both have also helped significantly in this transition and are to be commended.
- (1.13.6) iNova PL-M support added (Windows)
- (1.13.6) Server calls to auto-find-star now work when paused or guiding (so you can pause, slew, auto-find, resume)
- (1.13.6) Fixed bug in auto-find-star routine
- (1.13.6) Auto selecting previously used camera in camera chooser
- (1.13.6) Added ability to abort during calibration
- (1.13.6) Added the following server commands: MSG_FLIPRACAL (16), MSG_GETSTATUS (17), MSG_STOP (18), MSG_LOOP (19), MSG_STARTGUIDING (20)
- (1.13.6) Rewrite of the crosshair routine
- (1.13.6) Will no longer flag large-motion errors if Dec guiding is disabled to allow for drift.
- (1.13.6) Updates to make display intensity more stable, particularly w/darks
- (1.13.6) Tweak of plist for Retina display
- (1.13.5) Fixed bug in Ctrl-Click not letting you set the Dec color (thanks Igor!)
- (1.13.5) Automatic detection of shutter and use of it when taking dark frames (SBIG, SX, ASCOM, Atik in place)
- (1.13.5) Updated Atik to latest library
- (1.13.5) New server command (id=14) to auto-find star (same as pulling down this from the menu)
- (1.13.5) 'None' camera added to list and calling the camera connect dialog up and pressing cancel will no longer disconnect (Thanks Nicola)
- (1.13.4) Updates to LE webcams to make them more reliable on capture in progress (clean up)
- (1.13.4) Updates to LE webcams to go COM1-COM16 as trigger options

- (1.13.3) Minor adjustment to DCAM/Firewire/IIDC cams on Mac (thanks Ken)
- (1.13.3) Load/save settings feature added. Anything PHD normally saves (e.g., Advanced dialog) will be saved to a user-specified file.
- (1.13.2) Fix to long-exposure webcams. Was not remembering port number
- (1.13.2) Changed name of Open SSAG on Mac
- (1.13.1) Beta-level support for Orion StarShoot Autoguider on Intel based Macs via Open SSAG (Thanks to Eric Holmes for 99.9% of the work on this!)
- (1.13.1) Updates to The Imaging Source (TIS) cams on Windows to use default FPS setting (changing to 5 FPS was giving issues on some cams).
- (1.13.1) Updates in place for ASCOM v6 (e.g., should detect color sensors and strip off matrix)
- (1.13.1) Updated to current SBIG library for support of STi cameras
- (1.13.1) Mac build now requires Intel processors and 10.5+
- (1.13.1) Windows build now bundles VC2005 libraries needed for some clean installs (e.g. XP)
- (1.13.1) Should now save the Dec slope weight parameter
- (1.13.1) Small bug-fix tweaks to find-star routine (thanks Tom H!)
v 1.13 (July 2011)
- All updates from pre-releases 1.12.1-1.12.4
- LAST build on the Mac that supports 10.4 and the PPC processors.
- Support for Starlight Xpress CoStar on Mac (earlier versions supported it on Windows)
- Updated support for The Imaging Source Win-7 drivers
- Fixed bug in display of some cameras (e.g., Orion SSAG) on nebtook sized screens
- Fixed memory leak in ASCOM (late) camera driver
1.12.x Pre-releases
- (1.12.4) Added Preference to scale dither commands sent via capture program (e.g., Nebulosity). Default is 1 (to keep things at +/- 0.5, 1, 2, 3, and 5) but you can now multiply these levels by anything you want.
- (1.12.4) Updated to new drivers for Fishcamp Starfish (Win)
- (1.12.4) Fixed issue that could make the Advanced dialog be super-tiny (came in from a nice feature in OpenPHD). If you're stuck with a small dialog, on Windows fire up RegEdit (Start, Run, enter in 'regedit') and navigate to HKEY_CURRENT_USERSoftwareStarkLabsPHDGuiding. You'll see an entry there for 'Advanced dialog fontsize'. Just delete that key.
- (1.12.4) Fixed issue on Mac with incorrect positioning of guide box for some odd image sizes
- (1.12.4) Added ability to save star images as FITS files (hold down shift while pulling down Enable Star Image Logging)
- (1.12.3) Allowed ranges on parameters in graph log and advanced dialog synced.
- (1.12.3) Support for 'late bound' ASCOM cameras ('ASCOM (late) camera' in menu). This will allow in v4 and v6+ ASCOM cameras and any v5 cameras that did not support the (now defunct) 'early binding' mode.
- (1.12.3) Support for 'subframe' mode on late-bound ASCOM cameras
- (1.12.3) Last-used ASCOM camera now remembered in ASCOM Chooser dialog
- (1.12.2a) Mac-only fix to >1 Starlight Xpress camera
- (1.12.2) Tweak to Star Mass tolerance. Hopefully, it's less prone to rejecting things now. You can disable it entirely (promise!) by setting it to 1.0. Also, it will only reject two frames in a row because of this.
- (1.12.2) Calibration portion of log file cleaned up to put commas between values for easier analysis
- (1.12.2) If entering calibration data manually, current value will be pre-filled in dialog
- (1.12.1) Log file changed: Another column has been added to list what kind of fault PHD might have found with a star during guiding. 0=OK, 1=saturated (but still trying to work with it), 2=Low SNR, 3=Low star mass, 4=High change in star mass, 5=Large motion detected. Anything above 1 causes PHD to sit still and not move.
- (1.12.1) 'Max RA Duration' parameter added to Advanced menu(default is 1000 ms). Can be used to cap the RA duration during guiding.
- (1.12.1) Flip RA data entry added to Tools menu to flip the vectors post meridian-flip
- (1.12.1) 'Star mass tolerance' added to Advanced menu (default is 0.3). If the change in mass from one time to another exceeds this fraction, the current sample is rejected and not used for guiding. So, if the star mass on one sample is 10000 and the next it is 12000, the command is sent. If the next is 14000 (or 6000) it isn't (with the threshold set at 0.3 -- if it were at 0.4, these would be sent).
- (1.12.1) Reworked Advanced dialog
1.12 (May 2010)
- All updates from pre-releases 1.11.1-1.11.3
- Support for Orion Planetary Imaging and Autoguider with 32/64-bit drivers
- Removed QGDEBUG info from logs on the QHY5
- Fixed Equinox guide output mode on Mac
- Fixed PL-130C name
- Manual lock position mode added. Enable and it will ask for the position. Click on the star you want to move to that position and hit Guide. It'll move it there (albeit slowly, at guide speed).
- Package now installs the 32/64-bit version of SSAGIF.dll for the Orion Autoguider by default (Orion's request). Users should either update the driver (http://www.telescope.com/rsc/img/catalog/lc/articles/ssag64bit.html) or rename SSAGIF_orig.dll (the previous version, still bundled with PHD) as SSAGIF.dll in Program FilesPHD Guiding
1.11.x Pre-releases
- (1.11.3) Fixed issue with 'hide' and 'clear' button in graph log and added mouse-over tips.
- (1.11.3) In graph log, user can now change colors for lines. Shift-click RA/Dec button to change RA color. Ctrl-click to change Dec color.
- (1.11.3) Can now tweak numerous guide parameters on Graph Log window on the fly
- (1.11.2) When guide output is disabled, PHD will now track the star as it moves anywhere on the screen and not be confined by the search region (useful when doing PEC training)
- (1.11.2) Manual Guide dialog will now send commands even when guiding is active
- (1.11.1) Fixes for >1 SX camera on Macs - still an issue on PPC Macs
- (1.11.1) Fixes to the auto-star find routine (thanks Sander), but may still not be perfect
- (1.11.1) Removed warning about checking IsPulseGuiding -- handles it transparently as it really didn't matter
- (1.11.1) PHD can now remember which camera was last used. Shift-click on the camera button to connect to your last-used camera.
