what kind of drivers?

the intel chipset and raid drivers are already be built into vista

when installing to intel martix raid i did not need to supply any extra drivers, reached vista desktop, everything was installed

So the 975x and gigabit LAN drivers would already be in Vista?

 

[Pyr0]

they were for me when i installed the latest x64 5744 build on the Asus P5B

network was connected as soon as i booted into vista, i just needed to set the static ip

the 975/965 chipset drivers are all included and newer than the intel chipset drivers available from their website
