Default Problems with drivers

I've recently installed MS Windows Vista RC1 32bit; I've reported some
troubles I noticed with drivers I got before, working properly with previous
Windows XP.
First of all, audio drivers don't work correctly (Realtek AC97 on Intel 975i
chipset): quad sounds come out from the same front speakers and rear speakers
are silent.
No way to set it up in sounds control panel 'cause jack-sensing function is
disabled. What more, game port is not recognized.
Then, my Natural Multimedia Keyboard's drivers (IntelliType 5.5) are not
recognized by Vista: the result is that not all special and function keys are
active (as the matter of fact, just a little few work !). Can anyone help my
with those troubles ??
THANX !
My platform's description is following:
Pentium IV 3.04 GHz HT - 1 GB DDR RAM - M/B GA-8KNXP Gigabyte 875P chipset

Default Problems with drivers

Microsoft supplies that which the device manufacturers supply to them for
inclusion in the Vista DVD.

You will have to wait for the device manufacturer to get off his dead *ss
and supply competent drivers. This will not likely happen until Vista is
released to manufacturing (RTM).

Thanx for your reply !
So, I have to resign to wait for new drivers.
My problems with Vista keep staying and, what more, are growing... it's
difficult to test it with a non extremely recent machine; even S/W make
troubles for compatibility reasons. We'll see.
By the way, where could I find competent drivers for my MS keyboard if
Microsoft itself don't distribute them ??

I'm sure Microsoft will eventually update their drivers.

Be patient!
