Windows 7 Slow Startup/Sound not detected Until Restart

Ok well I am at a loss as to why the Realtek port will not work and looking at the support site and drivers for 10 I cannot find anything related to it. Now unless I am terribly wrong 10 usually loads the drivers for stuff like that and I cannot understand why it hasn't.

I changed OS search for 7 64bit and found a driver for it P8Z77-V DELUXE | Motherboards | ASUS Global I don't know if it is worth trying that if nothing else and worst it just simply will not work.

I see the BIOS for your board is the same version for 7 and 10 which surprised me because I have an Asus ROG laptop that I had to update the BIOS before I could load drivers for 7 because the machine was originally a downgrade from 10.

I have recently gone back to 10 on that machine and it actually downloaded all the drivers through Windows updates hence why I am wondering why your set up is not doing the same.

Now also the board has two Ethernet ports so can you remind me why you need both??P8Z77-V DELUXE | Motherboards | ASUS Global

Hi, I've been having this soundcard not working and slow startup issue, for 5 months now. When I start the computer it's slow and the soundcard is not detected at all. I go to playback devices and it's not even something I can select. Restarting the computer always corrects the problem. Once Windows starts everything is fine, but the initial startup is very slow. Occasionally the internet.

Hello and welcome robertosburn mate not wanting to sound pedantic but it would be better to start your own thread as coming in another members thread even though it is a similar issue leads to confusion because when we answer the separate posts it can lead to us answering what may be different causation's.
