Asus Xonar DS Win7(64bit)/7.1 Issue

Hello,

I have a problem getting the 7.1 working under Win7 64. I installed newest drivers. Played with the settings and got 5.1 for a while. After restart a have 2.1 and just cant get more even with older drivers. Any ideas? Thank you for answer.

[Motherboard: ASUS P8Z77-V LX, Repro 7.1: 3 jacks]

What driver are you using? The latest Asus seem to be 7.12.8.1794. If that doesn't work try the unified drivers:

LOL the Xonar DX uses a C-Media Oxygen HD chipset to be specific. Not sure where your getting Realtek from.

Edit: My bad it's a Xonar DS but it's still using the same chip.

Odd. I highly doubt it is tho I don't know how he does these drivers. Sometimes a "hack" is used that may show up as malicious(the Realtek to X-Fi hack had that issue)

I can't say anything about the drivers I just know they are well regarded and seem to be less hassle, updated and "better" than the ASUS ones.

I'm on Creative X-Fi so I of course use the equivalent drivers by Daniel K.
