Re: Realtek Sound Drivers


I was unable to install Vista Home Premium via an upgrade to my XP home
rig due to the realtek drivers. It would get all the way through set
up after about 2 hours, then, after the final restart, the BSOD
appeared and the computer went into an endless loop of automatically
restarting to boot to reach the BSOD. After rolling back to XP, the
box "Microsoft encountered an error" appeared. After reporting the
error, a website appeared blaming the Realtek drivers and sending me to
their site for an update. I installed the Realtek Vista drivers on XP
then retried the upgrade and had no problems. I'm thankful that XP
recognized the error, when it reverted back to XP after the failed
setup, and was able to point me in the right direction for once.
