my front speakers. Please help its driving me mad.

Forget about using the built-in audio on your mobo. I gave up on the
AC97 drivers a month ago - they are NOT fully compatible with Vista
and Realtek isn't writing new ones.

Buy an audio card that is Vista compatible and disable your AC97 mobo
audio (you can do it in the BIOS).
