we're just going to have to wait it out, i have the beta ones for my Audigy, and i only have two speaker support as well. give it a week or two and i bet we'll have some good drivers for creative products ...

how did u get the drivers to install?

everytime i try run the XP drivers it says cannot detect a card?

LiveDrvUni-Pack(ENG).exe

by **cRaSh~oVeRlOaD** » Mon Feb 05, 2007 4:09 am

when it says that it cant be installed then windows Pop-ups a thing saying use (I cant remember what it says... somthing like) recamended install or defalt install.. pick recamended.. or exctract the LiveDrvUni-Pack(ENG).exe and Force install it buy picking exctracted driver folder

i took a screenie of what is happening

I manually extracted the .exe . removed the vista one that windows detects which is wrong. then manually selected the xp driver after extracting.

Now it says that the driver is in but doesn't detect the audio device .

update:

well i rebooted and those drivers worked

same options though just stereo sound

no 5.1 which sucked.

although vista started crashing alot so i have reverted to the vista creative WDM driver

by **cRaSh~oVeRlOaD** » Mon Feb 05, 2007 5:00 am

it has yet to crash on me.. yeah sucks we dont get 5.1 but its still sound.. DAMN YOU CREATIVE.....

Download kx driver version 3538m from their forum, not official site.

Works perfect for vista. you will get 5.1, 4.1 or whatever.

If you don't know where, google it.

by **suddy** » Wed Feb 07, 2007 6:52 am

amazing work thanks

5.1 working!!!

god i missed it!

guys make sure like that guy said.. 3538m

most of the mirror sites ahve 3538j which didn't work for me

by **Burnt_Ram** » Wed Feb 07, 2007 2:05 pm
