Hi, I've just done a clean install of Vista Home Premium after install
Windows installed a Realtek AC97 audio driver for the Abit KV7 mainboard but
the sound did'nt work so I got a driver from Abit website which appears to be
the correct one and works ok but I now find that when I click Start/ Control
Panel the PC crashes to a Blue Screen and reboots.Using System Restore cures
the control panel problem but leaves me with no sound, I have not made any
other changes. Am I stuck with no sound until Abit write a Vista comptable
driver for the KV7.

Yep! A possible workaround is to install a soundcard, if you have a slot
available. Make sure drivers are available before upgrading any machine.

Thank You Wandering, Ive now got a driver that works, Microsoft downloaded it
presumably in response to all the Find a Solution Online requests I was
sending when the PC crashed.
