Noticed that Gigabyte has updated their downloads for my mobo EP35-DS3R to include Windows 7 specific items for 32-bit and 64-bit.
If you are running a Gigabyte board, might be useful to see if updated Win 7 downloads are available for you.

Great, thanks for the information. i am a gigabyte user and not having problems..but it's always good to try out new drivers.
Edit: I just checked the website for my board (GA-EP45-UD3R) and there aren't any updates. 1 sole update for audio and that's it.

The only updated package I saw for my board was for the Realtek audio as well, but it was dated July 2009 and unique to Windows 7. More importantly when checking the downloads I was able to select Windows 7 32-bit and Windows 7 64-bit. So I guess IF they built something new it would be findable.
