Everytime it tries to install if knocks the sound out of the system tray and fucks up my sound so that i don`t have any. :dry:

The file in the picture say theres 0kb file to install.?

Am i better just to install the latest motherboard software from the abit site.???

One last thing how do i get the little yellow shied off in the system tray with out updating. :unsure:

go to the windows update site and click options or settings (can't remember which it is) and choose to always hide that driver.

then install the latest from the nvidia site or your mobo maker's site.

@enoughfakefiles,Its funny a few post abouts about this problem . Wonder if its something to do with a recent winupdate ? You realy can't blame someone who "see's " update your software drivers ,then does it .You have to hide the option.Feel sorry for NoObs who think their covering all the bases . I hate auto updates but some of my buddies are not very computer illiterate ,so usualy set up that way for them . :(

I search a bit on the internet last night peat and all i saw were *don`t install these updates* every where. :dry:

I thought these updates were from last year. so why is it trying to update now.:whatsbillgatesupto:

I think that the people having problems with the nVidia sound driver update don't realise they need the Realtek drivers, like myself (Soltek SL75-FRN2-L) and my brother (Asus A7N8X-X).
