ASUS P5W64 WS Professional

ct, I have this MB in both my comps,  ASUS P5W64 WS Professional,
I was worried about upgrading to Vista which I have on order as to chip set drivers and on board sound drivers ,  raid etc...
The ASUS site has no reference to Vista drivers for this or any other ASUS MB,
Well,  I did some research and was told that Vista has all these drivers included,  now I can understand the chips,  975 are pretty stands...
What about the rest?
Have you herd anything...

Having an ASUS board myself I know very well that all of their drivers and programs work just fine in Vista, even the BIOS flash utility which I was sketched out on.

As for being included, they are and arn't. You still have to install your AC97 drivers, but now it dosn't blue screen the OS when you use your audio for more than 5 minutes. That and your video card are probibly the only two that you are going to need to install, at least when I booted RTM600 thats all I needed to do.
