Just thought you'd like to know!

Techpowerup=even better place to download this kinda stuff

never thought to check techpowerup for the downloads, thats a diffrent version of the driver from mine, yours has the volume slider at the top, strange,

oh well try using driver cleaner pro to remove the driver and all its leftovers(think its still got realtek in its list)

then install the latest one clean, see if that helps^^

Random person, which soundcard did you purchase in the end, and how does it sound with your speakers when watching dvds, playing games etc? any regrets?

Creative has good hardware but shit software. Its more like rotten skin on a freshly made apple.

I have got to disagree.

As far as software goes creative overwhelms users with thousands of applications ranging from equalizers to sound players. It is far to bloated!. I can remember once installing a creative card just to descover that I had like 8-10 extra processes running!

And as far as hardware is concerned I feel that creative dont know what their customers want. We want hardware DD and DTS decoding, and SPDIF on budget cards as well as high end cards!
