You could have just done a clean install of Windows 7 without having to mess with installing Vista. The so-called "Upgrade" installs have been causing a lot of problems for the end-user. Not right away, but usually within a couple of weeks or so.

You CAN do a FULL clean install with the Windows 7 Upgrade disc. Your systems will run much better too.

Go here to see the Tutorial: Clean Install Windows 7 with Upgrade Media

For your sound issue download the driver and see if that works, if not go to the Control Panel and see if in the Sound section the Realtek device is showing up. In the Playback section, right-click in the window and click the "Show Disabled Devices" it may show up there.
