theres still a red x beside the Realtek AC'97 Audio. Tried enabling it again as the main sound driver, pc still goes blank, restarts and sends me the blue screen.

:S

OK then the next step is as follows:
Boot into Safe Mode
Uninstall the Realtek Ac97 driver
Then reboot into Normal Mode and see if Windows installs the driver on it's own.

Go back to post #4 and under the Drivers area download driver #5
That is the chipset driver for your MOBO.
Let me know if this works.
