I installed the realtek drivers from asus.
it was a 84 meg download for all windows os's.
i installed them and clicked run as administrator.
when it was done the icon showed up in the tray and allowed my to get all of
my speakers working.
before that the speaker setup would only have sound out of the front's and
the center
it showed all of the speakers but no sound came out the sub or the rear
speakers
when tested.
i'm running vista rc1 bld 5600

Vista is installed and works fairly well for a number of applications, but
it does not recognize my motherboard at all. I know it has to see it at some
level to have everything working, including the onboard sound and nforce4
processor, but whenever I try to do things like update the board bios or
install the asus monitoring tools it lists that I have no Asus motherboard
installed. There are also 'unknown devices' which I have tracked down to the
game ports, but it won't let me install the drivers for them because I don't
have any Asus motherboards installed.

Has anyone seen this before and know how to get the system to recognize my
mainboard? I can't find any Vista drivers on the Asus site.
