Wink Great! Just inform you all we have hardmodded X-Fi OEM to X-Fi Platinum

Just post to let you all know we have successfully hardmodded X-Fi OEM to X-Fi Platinum by flashing X-Fi's BIOS. Next mod we'll go advance to turning X-Fi OEM to X-Fi Fatal1ty FPS when X-Fi Fatal1ty FPS is going to be cheaper 'cause now I don't have one.
Better wish me good luck!

I am so waiting on this mod. I am running Linux and creative has now updated there forums to let them know that they are releasing 64bit beta drivers at the end of the month X-FI Linux Driver? - Sound Blaster - Creative Labs
(end of the Page) I would love to get my hands on this so I can install the drivers and have all the features of the platinum card. I did try to register on the youp-pax.org site and it will not allow me to confirm my e-mail. So any information on this I will be waiting on the edge of my seat for!

What do you mean by its dead? I see that if I register+activate there will be a download link, right?


Such a waste, they did it, they released the files, now, everything's gone?!

If you do get the doc's. I soldier components on for a living so for me there is no risk. I am a Electronics Technician by trade. i.e. Troubleshoot and repair them for a living.. Don't go out of your way for it but if do find time I would differently be interested in it. By the way Love all the work you do on the drivers and mods you do.. Keep up the GREAT work..

I'd still be interested even if there was soldering. Now I'm not like shaman whereby I do these things for a living but I do enjoy spending a whole weekend just soldering old electronics and stuff.
