I would imagine that drivers for this board are included with the Vista distribution. AMD lists the RD480 as Vista compatible. I know there are LAN drivers available at the Marvell site. The only problem I can see would be the SoundMax drivers. There weren't any drivers for the release candidates and I've not heard of any being made available. And even if drivers exist, AD doesn't release generic's so your stuck waiting for Asus.

Personally, I've found this board to be so flaky that I'll spend the money for a Vista upgrade on a new mainboard. It's by far the worst board I've ever owned (that wasn't actually dead).
