Vista - RealTek Ac'97 Audio Driver for Beta 2 5384.4

I am not having any luck getting an audio driver to work with this build.

I am running an HP PC,
AMD 64 X2 3800+
1 GB RAM
RealTek AC'97 Integrated Sound

I have tried HP directly, and have also tried the Nvidia and Realtek Vista
Beta1 drivers. Anyone have any other suggestions?

--->Thanks Much!

Found a link to BETA 2 drivers on ntcompatible.com, I can't tell if they are
x64 or x86 drivers, that you have to find out:

While I don't have exactly what you have, mine is Realtek 882D integrated
sound on an ASUS board, I also was unable to get any of the Vista 64bit
drivers from Realtek to install. Out of desparation I used the latest
installation pkg from ASUS, which I also use on my base XP 32bit install.
After installing the drivers and updating the driver from the device page
{using the pick from specific location option} I was presented with 4 options
of INF files to choose from, first one would not install, but the second one
did, and after rebooting I had sound.

Might be worth a try.

I went into Control Panel, selected Windows Update and Windows installed the
Realtek drivers. Sounds works fine although 5.1 sound comes out of only two
speakers and the woofer doesn't work.
