I'm just getting the drivers for the sound off the Gigabyte Web site, it's DL'ing at 12.7KB/s, their web site is SO slow!

This is really, really, really freakin' irritating, it takes the piss!

Why won't anything work!?!

why the vista move ?
i regreted getting Vista business.
2 weeks ago my boss told me he had a presentation and he needed the laptop.
Fine with me, but the program he was going to run doesn't run on vista.
OUCH, i had to get him a desktop which h didn't like at all, my lappy still runs vista but i highly doubt i will keep it cause i get a lot of problems with other software and network especially

In the device manager, are there question marks next to any devices? Did Vista already install drivers for the sound?

Yeah, I know. I've been there. We'll straighten it out.

Nope, there aren't any question marks or anything...

Nope, I had no sound when I had first installed Vista...

I really, really hope so, this is so annoying, I want to smash my computer up, seriously!

ha ha. Awesome.

I've been reading about the error, and I can't find any useful information that would apply to you. An overheating or overclocked processor can generate that STOP code, but that's unlikely in your situation. However, you can try temporarily returning your processor to the default speed and see if you receive the same BSOD.

Another option is to manually uninstall some of the updates. Not sure where you would start, though.
