Asrock K7VT4A Pro & Win7

[tokko]

Hi, is there anyone who has already tried to install Windows 7 on a board with VIA KT400 and C-Media sound, like the Asrock K7VT 4a pro?

I have some trouble finding drivers for the chipset and sound. The system works somewhat, but is not fully functional.

THanks for any input that sheds light on this!

According to http://www.asrock.com/mb/download.asp?Model=K7VT4A PRO&o=All
Asrock does not support the K7VT4A Pro beyond Windows XP.

Thanks, for your answer.

I have tried the Asrock support. For reasons unknown, only after a second try most devices work now, just the recording part of the soundchip doesn't work. Maybe I 'll find some solution for that, but for now i am already using the board. Sound recording is no big deal in this case.

Try to right click on the program and select Properties > Compatibility
You might have some success in the Windows XP compatibility mode.

Good idea, I had not thought of trying this... One thinks that compatability-modes just work with software. For me this didn't work, but thanks anyway!

Does your Device Manager show any bad install device?
