	Well i do have chipsed and cpu from AMD so they allso provide exactly same drivers for those as Asus does. Same thing as you get your graphic drivers for gforce 8800gtx from Nvidia even thought Asus has clued their logo on it. And now days is very rare that there wouldnt be vista x64 compatible drivers. I have been using vista x64 over year allredy.

AMDs drivers are not the same drivers provided by Asus, they are specific to your Motherboard and provide better compatibility and support than the AMD generic drivers on there site.

Graphics drivers and Nvidia are a different story.

When its about cpu and Amd cpu functionalitys it wont matter do you download from Amd or from Asus. Ofcourse only Asus can provide drivers for their own extra functions.
AmdLive is Amd cpu or chipsed function that aint only on asus motherboards. Allso Asus wasnt able to offer any driver for that.

Anyways , i did get sick of all troubles SP1 was giving. Im running now with out SP1 and did get rid of most problems (how ever got few new problems now). I havent get any missing drivers this time , and i havent installed amdaway(i didnt let vista download any drivers of its own and did just install same drivers from motherboard cd as before).
