I installed windows 8.1 all of last night after building. I was on xp and im a bit confused. 8.1 updated fully and has installed drivers automatically, i literally haven't used my mobo as yet, or gpu drivers. I have sound, net and i think my gpu is ok (not 100% sure as i'm literally having a look around)

Is this ok? If i installed the chipset/realtek/lan/amd gpu drivers would i just install them by double clicking if ones microsoft have installed? A bit confused...
 
Solution
I just installed the new drivers from the AMD website. I didn't have audio either, I was using HDMI audio, until I installed the GPU driver.

Yeah, it's really confused me on what i should do :s i have noticed though i have sound from headphones, but not from my speakers/stereo.

Would you uninstall the AMD gpu drivers (?) that were automatically installed, or just install the drivers from Amd by clicking/writing over? 8.1 has really fried my noggin.
