I have a Gigabyte MA790GP-DS4H S-Series and AMD Phenom X4 running on Windows XP with 4GB RAM

I have tried installing Windows 7 but when the installation is over windows 7 is supposed to install my motherboard drivers automatically but it won't work
Neither has the Gigabyte website released drivers for Windows 7

there is no need to install motherboard drivers for win7.. most of the features of your mb will work fine in win7 without installing mb driver.. probably you will only need the display drivers..
pl run win update first before installing any driver..

Simple solution is use windows update options in win 7, i did same and found correct drivers for my nvidia 6150 board. It wi;l surely help you if any drivers will be available.

@ Mad Max

He didn't mentioned network drivers, mostly the network drivers are already bundled in every windows, he just said vista drivers answering your query
