maybe because this betanews article incorrectly reports of build 26200.5510 as 25H2 when it actually still reports 24H2 instead

definitely not, GotNoRice. creator of the Rufus app said it best on his FAQ: https://github.com/pbatard/rufus/wiki/FAQ#user-content-This_PC_doesnt_currenty_meet_Windows_11_system_requirements try replacing that old AMD Phenom X4 9750 with an AMD FX processor if you have a Socket AM3+...

I have no such sound issues with the 6.0.9780.1 audio driver version on a Gigabyte desktop motherboard when I installed 6.0.9780.1 from the Microsoft Update Catalog site (released earlier this February 2025). mp3/mp4 files play fine on my end, even in the latest version of VLC player though...

seems like the OP is not the only person having some audio driver issues with the Realtek audio 6.0.9780.1 driver from Asus.

downgrade or rollback the Realtek audio driver to an older version and block/disable Asus assistant from updating the audio driver (adjust that app to disable updates). either use Device Manager to rollback the driver to an older version or completely uninstall the 6.0.9780.1 version, reboot...

what kind of Asus computer are you using? a desktop or laptop pc?

in any case, get a replacement SSD from a different manufacturer from either Crucial or Samsung https://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/best-ssds,3891.html

on the AMD site, any AMD based CPU from at least Bulldozer & Piledriver have SSE4.2 support and can run Win11 24H2 all generations of AMD Ryzens have SSE4.2 as well

6.4.0.2395 is the latest available version for your Asrock board using Realtek USB Audio ALC4082 hardware, Schrotty74. Asrock has not released a new version for several months. contact Asrock & ask them for newer drivers. otherwise keep using the 6.4.0.2395 version

that one is not really relevant to the OP since the OP is using an Asus motherboard and the previously available 6.0.9757.1 driver from MSI is for most recent MSI motherboards only and is not applicable & can't be installed to Asus motherboards (unless Asus themselves have a 6.0.9757.1 driver...

I lean towards what spapakons said as there's no serious need to update the Realtek audio software components from Microsoft Update Catalog. also the previous 6.0.9689.1 Realtek audio driver is no longer available from the Gigabyte web site as it was replaced by the 6.0.9733.1 driver version in...

not directly from Realtek so don't waste your time trying to look for them or ask/contact Asus 6.0.9754.1 from Asus was released for certain Asus motherboards (such as Tuf Gaming Z690-Plus D4, Tuf Gaming B660M-Plus Wifi D4 & Tuf Gaming B760-Plus Wifi) with this little note: likely to improve...

the 6.0.9754.1 Asus (laptop) driver is listed for Zenbook S 13 OLED {UX5304} notebook pc (specifically UX5304VA, not UX5304MA), werty -click on the "show all" link in the Audio downloads section for UX5304VA (not listed for UX5304MA) -so the "source" is direct from the Asus support site and...

on the first weekend of December 2024, I did get a chance to try out Win11 24H2 on my custom built PC with an AMD Socket AM3+ Gigabyte board (AMD FX 6300 cpu, 8GB of DDR3 RAM) and with an old Western Digital 160Gb [WD1600BB] IDE/PATA HDD (not an SSD; try installing & running 24H2 on an HDD...

I recently found a newer audio driver package from the Asus web site that contains the HDXSSTASUS.inf file - 6.0.9754.1
