MSI H110M PRO VD PLUS Driver

The MSI H110M PRO VD PLUS audio driver helps Windows communicate with the motherboard’s onboard sound hardware, enabling playback through connected speakers or headphones and input from a microphone. If audio is missing, distorted, or unavailable after reinstalling Windows, installing the appropriate driver is a useful troubleshooting step.

Key Features

• Onboard audio support: Provides the software needed for Windows to recognize and use the motherboard’s integrated audio device.
• Playback and recording controls: Enables access to supported speaker, headphone, and microphone settings through Windows or the audio controls included with the driver package.
• Audio jack functionality: Supports the motherboard’s audio connections, including front-panel connections when correctly wired and configured.
• Driver-level troubleshooting: Can help resolve sound problems caused by missing, damaged, or incompatible audio drivers. Hardware faults and incorrect output settings may require separate checks.

How to Install

1. Check your Windows version. Confirm whether you are using Windows 11, Windows 10, Windows 8, or Windows 7, and check your system architecture where applicable. Choose an audio package explicitly compatible with your operating system; compatibility should not be assumed across all four versions.

1. Confirm the motherboard model. Make sure your board is the MSI H110M PRO VD PLUS, not a similarly named MSI model. Review the download’s compatibility information before proceeding.

1. Download and extract the driver. Save the appropriate audio driver package to your computer. If it arrives as a compressed archive, extract its contents to a folder before running the installer.

1. Run the installation. Open the included setup program, approve any administrator prompt, and follow the instructions. If the package has no installer, use Device Manager to update the audio device’s driver by browsing to the extracted folder.

1. Restart and test your sound. Restart Windows if prompted, then select the correct playback device in Sound settings or Control Panel. Test your speakers or headphones and check microphone input if needed.

If sound still does not work, check cable connections, mute controls, and the selected output device. Audio sent through a graphics card’s HDMI or DisplayPort connection may require that graphics device’s audio driver rather than the motherboard’s onboard audio package.

Common Issues and Fixes

• Installer fails or rolls back: Verify you downloaded the Windows 10 64-bit package for the MSI H110M PRO VD PLUS, not a different board revision. Extract the ZIP first, then run setup as administrator with antivirus temporarily disabled.
• Onboard LAN/audio not detected: Enable onboard LAN and HD Audio in BIOS, then install the Intel Chipset INF before the Realtek audio and LAN drivers. In Device Manager, use Scan for hardware changes.
• Version conflicts after Windows Update: Windows may replace MSI’s validated Realtek/Intel drivers with generic ones. Roll back or uninstall the newer driver, reinstall the MSI package, and reboot. Do not mix Intel chipset/ME packages from different sources.
