Vista build 5308 February CTP and soundmax audio drivers
I had installed December CTP build 5270 few days ago on Winxp Sp2.
But I was not able to install soundmax audio drivers which I used on Xp sp2 in Vista. It said those drivers were not meant for this OS (vista). I looked on internet for solution but all in vain. Now I m going to install February CTP build 5308 and I want a solution at hand before installing vista. I have come across some threads on forums which said they have installed on Decembef CTP. Is there anybody who has installed it on Feb CTP? Plz help me :(
So my question is "How can we install soundmox audio drivers on February build ?" or "Is there any problem at all with audio drivers in Feb CTP?"
thanks in advance
System specifications :-
RAM 1 GB DDR 400 Hz

In both 5270 and 5308, the drivers for my own SoundMax device hasn't been available from the Vista DVD. But it is available from Windows Update. Meaning you go to Device Manager, in the properties of the "unknown audio device" select "Update driver...", and then allow it to go online and search for updated software. In both the x86 and x64 versions of Vista, this has been able to successfully find and install SoundMax drivers for my ASUS motherboard's on-board audio. For what it's worth.

Alan can you please send me the update of the soundmax driver in ASUS Motherboard.
I really need it, i can't connect to the internet simply because i have no connection.
if your kind enough please send me the update....my e-mail address is Lester_gogo@yahoo.com
One thing you can do that i just found to get it working when nothing else works is download the drivers from your oem or motherboard's site, and run the setup file under compatibility mode for windows xp, i just tried it and it went through fine and my sound actually works, hope this helps!
