    I can't seem to open Realtek HD Audio Manager. When I double click on it it in the control panel, it either pops up then hangs and crashes, or wont pop up at all. I've reinstalled the driver (from dell webbie) a few times but still no luck. Anyone else having the same problem?

    Btw, I have the creative x-fi installed. Could this be conflicting with the Realtek HD audio manager?

    Ok forget it. I solve this myself. If anyone else here is having trouble with the realtek hd manager, just uninstall the creative x-fi and the realtek drivers. Restarting between each uninstall. Then install everything again starting with the realtek. Simple. Probably it was a bad install by the dell technicians.
