Does this support 64bit versions of Windows do you know? My flatmate has been having ongoing issues with microphone support on his original Audigy card under 64bit Windows Vista and Windows 7 and is desperately trying ANY drivers he can find!

I have had big time problems with my mic on Win 7 x64 with Audigy 2 ZS. The solution for me: skip the audigy card and use the built-in sound instead and voila - mic works perfect.

Should do, Creative's driver packages usually cater for both flavours.

I think he's leaning towards trying his onboard card as well.. getting sick of Creatives inability to produce fully functional drivers!

That's why my Audigy 2 Platinum is sitting on a shelf in a anti-static bag. :laugh: Onboard sound is fairly decent these days (at least the HD Audio is). It doesn't sound *quite* as warm and rich as my Audigy 2 did, but it's not bad.

This! How can they release a driver update without even testing it with WMP? Even the Sound CP says the hardware enhancements are causing problems and should be disabled. My Audigy 4 is waiting on the shelf for CL to 'pull their heads out' as well. Meanwhile my on-board Sigmatel(IDT) is working great with full 5.1 and no crashes or warnings to disable anything. :)

Disabling 'enhancements' kills CMSS and EAX, effectively turning the Audigy into a generic 2-channel sound card.

Has anyone gotten auto update to work with these drivers under Windows 7x64 RTM? I have these installed but every time I run auto update I get the message: "Creative Software AutoUpdate was unable to detect any Creative products attached to your computer." Also I had a ton more features when I was running the same card in Vista x64.

Currently running this on Asus P6t mobo.

Wonderful! Worked great on my brother's old machine. He runs Windows 7 and had some issues w/ his Sound Blaster Audigy card. This update fixed most of them. One of the annoying issues left is the Creative Game Port staying as an Unknown Device. I've read about other people having problems w/ it, in both Vista and 7. So annoying. If anybody ran into this issue and has any idea on how to fix the driver, it would be great.

Thanks for the news tip.

It seems that the Creative Console Launcher Application for the X-Fi Titanium series has been updated to operate properly under Windows 7. Does anybody know if Creative Console for the original X-Fi sound cards, like XtremeMusic, will be updated for Win7 anytime soon?

      I spent a good 15 min today trying to get new Outlook to use my default browser instead of forcing links into Edge. That kinda tactic is shady and it sucks.
    • Vivaldi 8.0.4033.42

      By Copernic · Posted

      Vivaldi 8.0.4033.42 by Razvan Serea Vivaldi is a cross-platform web browser built for – and with – the web. A browser based on the Blink engine (same in Chrome and Chromium) that is fast, but also a browser that is rich in functionality, highly flexible and puts the user first. A browser that is made for you. Vivaldi is produced with love by a founding team of browser pioneers, including former CEO Jon Stephenson von Tetzchner, who co-founded and led Opera Software. Vivaldi’s interface is very customizable. Vivaldi combines simplicity and fashion to create a basic, highly customizable interface that provides everything a internet user could need. The browser allows users to customize the appearance of UI elements such as background color, overall theme, address bar and tab positioning, and start pages. Vivaldi features the ability to "stack" and "tile" tabs, annotate web pages, add notes to bookmarks and much more. Changes in Vivaldi 8.0.4033.42: [Chromium] Update to 148.0.7778.256 ESR [User Agent] Set Chromium version spoof to 149.0.7827.53 [Crash][Extensions] Using chrome.tabs.discard(…) (VB-126984) [Periodic Reload] Settings are not saved anymore (VB-128316) [Tabs] Stack names are lost after browser restart (VB-128321) [Themes] Vivaldi menu button no longer touches the upper left corner (VB-128124) Download: Vivaldi 64-bit | 139.0 MB (Freeware) Download: Vivaldi 32-bit | ARM64 View: Vivaldi Home Page | Screenshot Get alerted to all of our Software updates on Twitter at @NeowinSoftware

      Also try installing an alternative browser on ChromeOS. You have to enable dev mode and run it as a Linux app. Clunky.
