Default Windows 7 driver

I'm looking at buying the Gigabyte GA-EX58-UD4P motherboard but I
don't see any Windows 7 drivers other than audio. Is it possible to
install Windows 7 RC with this board?

Will all drivers be available then? Or do you resort to some generic
Win 7 drivers?

All the drivers needed are available on other manufacturers sites. For
instance the Realek Network Driver is for Windows 7 is available on the Asus
website. You will need to Google on part numbers but there are drivers for
all components.

If need be, you can use Vista drivers. They will work fine in Win 7. You'll
probably discover that most, if not all, drivers you need will be on the Win
7 DVD, anyway. As a member of the tech beta test team, I installed Win 7
beta and RC on several PC's running Vista, and not one driver issue
surfaced.

I don't know about your board, but I have the GA-EP45-UD3P, Gigabyte's
driver site has no drivers listed for Win7. All drivers installed
automatically with Win7.

Awesome!
