No bass sound or weak in EAX...

Hello!

I have a question

When i want to enable eax in games sound is getting very quiet (i must adjust the volume to 50% up when normally that level of sound takes 5-10% in potentiometer) and there is very very weak bass at all coming from my subwoofer (in f.e. GTA) or no bass at all (Need for Speed Carbon). When i diagnose my speakers in creative diagnostics the bass sound is playing clear, only when enabling eax bass is vanishing. Rest of speakers works very well and they`re 'producing' EAX sounds very well.
I also have that same problem when watching 5.1 films with DTS oraz 5.1 AC3 (quiet sound, weak or no bass)

I have Audigy modded to Audigy 2, YouP PAX drivers 2.33 and Logitech X-530 speakers. I tried many YouP PAX drivers 2.31-3.33 and i dont see any difference, or sounds in surround are very quiet and there is no bass coming from my sub (or very weak in some cases)
And i dont have ticked "enable audio effects" in EFFECTS tab in EAX CONSOLE


Greetings, please help me if anyone can

Update your drivers and verify your card is connected to your speakers correctly...
Also make sure your card is configured for your speakers and windows control panel is set for the right #of speakers...

Thanks for your reply.
