MSI Crosshair 15 (B12U) Latest driver updates.

this is weird

the treexy.com Realtek HD Audio page recently claims there's a 6.0.9749.1 hdxmsi.inf codec driver

but I'm unable to find a link from the MSI download site that actually contains a 6.0.9749.1 MSI driver package (like how did the folks at treexy.com get this specific driver?)

A short Google search ( "6.0.9749.1" realtek ) and I can download this driver. It is mentioned in a ASUS forum.
 
Looks like the google drive link for Nahimic audio driver is no longer working. Would you happen to have an alt link for 4.11.6.0 (EXTv1.5.53.0) or newer? <3

but that 6.0.9749.1 driver from the Asus forum as Asus specific and does not work with MSI systems (meaning it won't install nor run on MSI based laptop/desktop pcs). so that's not it, Adrian.

however, it appears that this DriverHub page does have the 6.0.9749.1 hdxmsi.inf driver (as someone else mentioned in another forum that is not Asus related; it'll be available from there for a "limited" time). it does not contain the other INF files such as hdxacpmsi.inf & hdxsstmsi.inf; just only the hdxmsi.inf file

* The bold marked driver names are the ones that got updated compared to my previous all-in-one post.
** I would recommend the program wushowhide to disable auto update on the intel graphics driver and i highly recommend O&O ShutUp10++ to disable all the spyware/telemetry Microsoft added in Windows 10/11.

!!!!IMPORTANT NOTE!!!!
Since i started to use Pop! OS (Linux) on my MSI Crosshair B12UGSZ i do not need any windows drivers anymore, which means i will (probably) not update this topic anymore to add newer drivers.

Edit: Is this the best viewed topic on the forum ? Views: 115K

Nahimic - 4.11.7.0 (EXTv1.5.57.0)

“Hi Michel,

For Nahimic, we have prepared a relatively new version SWC4.11.7, which corresponds to 24H2 and solves some compatibility issues.

this Treexy.com page claims there's a Nahimic APO4 4.12.1.0 driver version

ask Nahimic support as to how the folks from treexy.com site got this 4.12.1.0 APO driver release, MichelN86
I'll skip the 4.11.7.0 version if there's a way to get the more recent 4.12.1.0 version

4.11.7.0 came directly from a software engineer from nahimic (Kevin) and he send it to me yesterday. He always provides the latest release by mail if i ask for it. So i highly doubt this driver is designed for MSI.

I will contact Kevin for this, already send him a mail.

In search of the latest, greatest & leaked updates. Unfortunately a lot &/or too many sites are just unreliable. They fail to state that many posted updates are manufacture limited or even fail to state which manufacturer it's limited to let alone if it's model specific. Anyone who has some computer knowledge knows how complicated these updates can be. Brand, models in those brands which processor running your running & which version of Windows.
Next, I spoke about using NTLite to help make an 24H2 ISO. Recently got reminded why I stopped using it 20 years ago.
Buying a license, not a problem. It's paying for component removal on an individual component basis. For me that is totally unacceptable. I'll look in at the GitHub for other options. I be taking a pass on all the AI stuff being shoved at us. Example, Windows Picture App with AI is 1 gig of space. Way too big for me, I'll be going back to the original Windows Picture Viewer. 24H2 to run games with no AI ever needed. Didn't need it before & don't need it now. I will be removing Edge & Edge Webveiw2 along with all their/MS other useless junk in the trunk. The latest trick I tried out was taking away MS/System/Trusted Installer Registry key permissions to a denied status for stubborn situations. Notepad with AI, really? It finally just got a spell check. This time I will be removing as much MS junk as possible. Thanks MichelN86 & Pesedm for your latest updates !

even treexy.com's own driver fusion app reports an available 4.12.1.0 driver is available

treexy-driverfusionfreeapp-offers-avolute-nahimic-apo4-v41210[1].png


only the paid driver fusion premium app (not the driver fusion free edition which only scans for updates but can't download them) can actually download & install this updated driver

but anyways, a new realtek audio driver version is recently available from MSI:

Realtek Audio - 6.0.9744.1 {NB - laptop}

You can only achieve this by using Linux. I switched over because i am getting tired of all the things Microsoft shove through our throats. All the spyware they add since windows 10 (data mining, telemetry and so on). They put a big middle finger at us, guess what, they get 2 middle fingers back from me.

In 2021 i made the switch to Pop! OS. Used it for 2 years till i bought the MSI Crosshair 15 B12UGSZ. Used Windows 11 for 1 and half year and it sucks alot. The first few months i got attacked by bluescreen of deaths because Microsoft released prepared updates for 24H2 (23H2 whas not even released). Nvidia tried to fix it many times and they succeeded 4 months later (yes i got bsod alot). After that every monthly update ms releases breaks something (check windowslatest website). Speaking of updates, Microsoft even shoves these deep into our throats. Last time i backed up stuff to a external drive. Microsoft did not ask me anything about updating, it just did and it even forced rebooted my machine during backup. Ridiculous really…

The only thing i do is gaming (singleplayer) and surving the net. Pop! OS does this perfectly fine for me.

Star Wars Jedi Survivor for sample runs better in linux for me. When i opened the galaxy map for sample it lagged alot in Windows 11. When i did the same thing in Linux the galaxy map ran butter smooth, no lags nothing. Overall the game performed well.
 
Yes MichelN86 I agree. It's game of cat & mouse (I'm the mouse). One uses a fix only to be circumvented by the wiley cat.
Just recently Windows is still removing updates I got from here, (which are from their own catalog). It replaces them with old generic drivers or nothing?
That darn goofy cat. They/MS like picking on Realtek Hardware Support, Realtek Universal Service updates, along with some Intel updates.
Everything's fine then bam, driver updates gone. Like a thief in the night. Then I pick some MS junk & remove it with powershell, how's that MS.
I haven't made up my install ISO's yet, but one will be Pop OS.
