Well, some 3rd party drivers does not work well...Hell, it even crashed my windows cry.gif...Btw can pm me the link for those drivers tongue.gif
I've been using YouP-Pax drivers for years now.
Thanks to PowerSlide for recommending those drivers.

Been using it since i'm still using XP.
No crashes at all.

I'd love to give you the drivers, but i can't find the link anymore, giving through YM @ MSN won't do good either as the driver is 42MB. laugh.gif

just installed the Vista and use XtremeMusic on it....

The conclusion is you will waste the sound card if use under vista environment, all sound are software rendered, and i noticed the sound quality in Vista is significant different from XP, loss detail in the high frequency part...and NO DOLBY function in Vista...
Dude, find YouP-Pax driver.
It's a modded driver for Creative Sound Card.

The YouP-Pax driver will show the true colour of your card in Vista. wink.gif

By the way Lacus, how's the driver?
Working fine under your Vista?

For me, i feel that with YouP-Pax driver, my Audigy 2 ZS produces better sound compared to original Creative vista driver, what about you?
Do you feel the same?

but latest is which version?
I'm not sure about that either, because i rarely check for the latest driver.
Once i got a driver that has no bugs or crashes with my system, then i'll just stick with it, malas mau cari updated version. laugh.gif

The YouP-PAX-AXv4.09 is even worse than YouP-PAX-AXv3.63.03! shakehead.gif
Now look at all the work i gotta do!

Sigh, have to uninstall the YouP-PAX-AXv4.09 and reinstall YouP-PAX-AXv3.63.03.
And uninstalling creative soudncard driver is a real PITA. vmad.gif

fariz!
If you didn't open this thread about creative stopping daniel_k making modded driver for Sound Blaster, i wouldn't know about it. laugh.gif

All i can say about daniel_k's driver is that his driver is even better than any other modded driver i've ever used.
It's even better than YouP-PAX-AXv3.63.03 driver for my Audigy 2 ZS.
The treble sounds smoother, and the bass seems sweeter than the best modded driver i've ever use which is YouP-PAX-AXv3.63.03.

Thanks man! notworthy.gif

And Daniel_K, you rawk! icon_rolleyes.gif
