looking for HD Audio driver for Commando

Hi all,
Just rebuilt PC-

e6400
Asus Commando
2 gig teem xtreem 667
7900 gs
700 PSU

The Commando is brand new but I can't get the sound going on it. Apparently I need windows sp 1 prior to installing my mobo's drivers for the HD audio soundcard that comes with it. I can't get my Windows activated for another 10 days and my onboard legacy doesn't work. Just went out and bought cheapo soundcard but that won't install properly eitherconfused

Is there any way to get that HD driver in their without sp1? Last nite i downloaded the 'unofficial sp3' from this site which contains the driver but it also requires sp1.

Thanks for any help.

Ok these are the files that seem to be needed according to MS site:

Thanks a bunch Halo!

That was indeed the problem -Windows refused to accept my validation key so I couldn't D/L from MS. Didn't know they had that here.

Off to game!
