I have a Elitegroup 7050-M v1.0a motherboard an I've used the
Realtek HD audio driver it came with for years under Windows XP 64 Bit. There was a nice mixer panel, an equalizer, sound profiles that added effects, etc.. All of these menus are gone now that I've moved on to Windows 7 64 Bit. All I have is the basic settings under system control -> sound, but they are not nearly as detailed.
To clarify: Sound works, but the advanced settings I got when using older OS's are gone.
Older drivers don't seem to work under Win7 and I can't find one for Win7.
So how can I fully utilize the capabilities of my HD sound chip under Win7?

All I have is this: E:\Program Files\Realtek\Audio\InstallShield. It contains the program and driver files for my XP installation, but as expected I can't run the control panel from within Windows 7.
Or what else was I supposed to find/do in that folder?
EDIT:
Nvm I was stupid. I didn't find the generic HD audio driver on the Realtek site because I was looking for a specific chip. The generic driver works fine and I have all the settings back.
This can be closed now. ... oh wait
