nope try gigabyte website before you even get to the download :<
Maybe because is too far from your home?
Example, if you live in Italy, and you want to download a driver, you get 2 options to Download the driver, from US server and one from UK server, the UK server will be much more faster because it's closer than the US one, it will only be slower if the the UK server is much worst than the US server.
Translating, the servers which are more close to us tend to be more faster.
Two mirrors:
Vista Version: ftp://majorgeeks.mirror.internode.on.net/.../Vista_R185.exe
XP Version: ftp://majorgeeks.mirror.internode.on.net/...rs/WDM_R185.exe
I have some doubts this will fix the mic issues people have with onboard sound. It's never been fixed before. Google realtek mic problems for thousands of posts.
Your codec is from the AC97 series.
You can find the latest drivers for your codec here: http://www.realtek.com.tw/downloads/downlo...GetDown=false#1
Have the changed the ugly systray icon yet, I wonder.
Somewhat tempted to buy some hardware just to try the drivers out. Realtek keep piling on the changes :p oh and my amp would like the distraction no doubt.
