Currently downloading RC1 (100-200 KB/sec - ~6 hours left). Does Vista
now have common SATA drivers baked in or do I still need my driver CD? |

However it is by no means all SATA controllers. On two of my machines, only the Silicon Image controller (which is a secondary controller) doesn't have drivers, both the VIA onchip (on the same board) and the nVidia on my other machine do. |

Found a note somewhere online about using OEM sata drivers so installed the drivers that came with my board (MSI). No sound stuttering or mouse skipping. Seems the SATA drivers in RC1 are crap. |

Loading older VIA SATA drivers cleared up the sound studdering issue. I saw lots of people with this problem I hope they find this post as well. I did the same thing, went from 64 to 32 bit install and am wondering if I should spend the time loading the 64bit version again. |
