realtek audio in windows 7

Hey guys!

I just recently got windows 7 (build 6801) installed on my pc and tried installing the drivers for my on board sound (realtek HD audio), but the sound is crackly and nothing will fix it. The thing is I cant use the drivers that are with windows 7 becuase the output port (green one) is broken so I have to be able to use the realtek HD audio effect manager to set the other ports as output. Any help will appreciated as to how to fix this, been searching for hours trying to find something. but alas! nothing.

Thanks all!!

I am not sure, but I guess it is a beta edition and not the release candidate? I believe the beta I am having a dvd of lying here, is build 7000. It may be a bug in the OS, if it is indeed an early version. Did you install drivers specially made for 7?
