I downloaded the new WinXp AC97 Realtek WHQL audio driver from Gigabyte but when I run the file a box appears with a bunch of question marks (?) and no english words. What's up with that?

I can only guess that the files should be uncompressed into a folder from which setup.exe should be executed? If this is a common thing with Gigabyte how will I ever be able to update my MB Bios without having a heart attack lol.

All BIOS updates I have used have been in English. All the driver updates have been in english too. Have you checked the BIOS update to see what its in?

I was referring to the above statement and not the MB Bios. I have since found out that the new audio drivers are in a WinRAR compressed executable format so you just open the file then click the left box and it uncompresses all the files into a directory. Then just run setup.exe. The only difference I've noticed with the new audio drivers is that the sound level loudness has increased and the AVRack player has been deleted.
