    Hi chas. The Realtek Sound Manager is probably the program for controlling your sound device. Is it a seperate program from your Audio driver or was it installed as part of the package? If its seperate then you probably could remove it but if its part of your audio driver then I would leave it alone.

    It's not necessary to load at boot. But no need to uninstall it.
