Unpack the driver using Winrar, go to Device Manager, look for Audiggy 2 ZS (in my case), click on it: Update driver, look for the folder were you unpack it, and that's it, you're done.

Well for starters I found surround sounded a bit odd, and Secondly they were BSOD'ing in GRAW (the ha10kx2k.sys is the cause according to the BSOD) so Im afraid Im rolling back to the previous ones(sad too as they are getting pretty old)
