Are you getting a message that there's no audio device present, or what? A lack of a driver will give you a yellow exclamation point in Windows' Device Manager, while NO DEVICE PRESENT means something else. I'm assuming you have great audio under OS X...

Audio under X is fine. No device driver is installed therefore Windows doesn't register the audio hardware and the audio won't function as not device is available.

Here's the fix DevNine linked to:

After you've installed the Macintosh Drivers from CD:
- go to "System Device", you'll see yellow mark on the device named "PCI Device", right click at the "PCI Device", select update driver
- select your Realtek HD audio driver path and go to Directoty "WDM" such as c:\program files\macintosh drivers\HDAudio\WDM and then click open
- Windows will install Microsoft UAA Driver , and install your HD Audio driver automatically
- reboot your machine again
This worked fine for me.
- enjoy your cool music
Basically, you select the unrecognized device (the sound adapter), and tell Windows to look for the driver in the appropriate directory. It's odd that this should not happen automatically when you run the driver install, but it's also happened on some other Macs with Bluetooth, so I guess stuff just happens - or fails to happen.

With that sort of message, it looks to me like you're basically choosing the wrong driver. Are you absolutely certain you're navigating to the correct folder and choosing the correct driver?
I'd try to install the Boot Camp 1.2 drivers now that they're out. This should fix almost any "can't find the right software" driver issue.
