Did you install the motherboard drivers? If not, there's your problem.
Check on the Gigabyte website for that specific model board for Vista
drivers. If you did install the drivers, see if there are any updated ones.

The usual fix is to delete this file, which has been corrupted:
C:\windows\inf\INFCACHE.1

You must first edit its file permissions to grant Full Control to the
Users group before you will be able to delete it.
