I am going to do a fresh install of Windows 7 to my desktop PC and I was wondering what type of graphics drivers would I download and stuff? Windows 7 isn't officially released yet so what drivers are you supposed to download. I am assuming whatever works with Windows Vista 64-bit will work with Windows 7 64-bit.
 
NVIDIA and AMD have Win7 drivers and it's a good idea to get the latest ones from their sites. Creative have Win7 drivers for their X-Fi sound cards. In most cases, Vista drivers should work with Win7, so if you don't see Win7 listed then try the Vista drivers.
 
Use Windows 7 drivers if they are available (there are quite a few out there) then use Vista ones if you can't find Win7 ones.
 
Vista drivers should work fine if 7 drivers are not available.
 
N00bie is correct -- Windows Vista drivers *should* work fine if Win 7 drivers are not available just yet. If you have trouble with the drivers and the installation, Microsoft does have an official Windows 7 RC Support Forum. It is supported by product specialists as well as engineers and support teams. You may want to keep that forum as an additional resource.

The Daniel_k drivers in the creative forums are much better packages then the junk creative is releasing.
