Audigy2 ZS drivers

I have seen a blurb on another forum about using them with the Audigy2.
Has anybody tried these drivers yet?
Hopefully I will have a working link soon....

Yes, they are the drivers for the NEW 7.1 cards.
If you don't know the details about these new cards check the Creative site.
From what I have read The graphic EQ doesn't work. (With the Audigy2)
Karaoke tab in EAX console disappears.
THX setup console works.
Effector works well w/ DD decoding.
Bit accurate recording in AudioHQ doesn't appears.
All of the other software appears to work.

The WDM driver is located here:
http://www.forgotten-realms.cfl.pl/o...in/wdm402b.rar

VXD are here:
http://www.forgotten-realms.cfl.pl/o...vxd_a2zscd.rar

Apps will be up when i'll test my ripped installer (down to 35MB).

Note that I haven't tested the drivers yet.

Use the ctcomp.exe, it might help (check the thread about hacking Audigy2 drivers to work on Audigy1 for links and info).

Crativeware works fine.So far,none reported he had installed .402 driver on A1/A2.

I think Ctomp.exe is hack Hardware testing when you install soft but not help us install driver.

Yes, I see now, drivers don't have standard "setup.exe" like web updates, also, evil_one says it's corrupted, so it's probably the reason why you couldn't install it.

The EQ do not work anything else?
For those of you that care about Stereo X2.............it's back.

Edit: The Bass Boost works with 2.1, 4.1, and headphone "speaker modes".
The fader controls were re-done and my AUdigy2 is now shown as one.
Rightmark numbers yeild no improvments.

So using these drivers on a Audigy2 will give any benefits? What about on SBLive and Audigy?

Well, they are newer, that's enough itself
I am not sure if they will or will not work on SB Live! - someone with that card should try it...

I installed the new driver on my Audigy 2 and there is still no Stereo X2.

Am I doing something wrong?

Are you trying to install VXD drivers on Windows2k/XP/2k3? Because they don't support it.

A guy that mods Creative's drivers (used in my guide at FM at Guide#3). said that to use the ZS drivers and apps (THX) on Audigy2, they need more than just patching em with the ctcomp.exe. If i will get them in my hands, i'll post here to share em.

Till then though, how about a working link of the ZS wdm drivers?. . .

I have already provided a working link to the WDM drivers:
http://www.forgotten-realms.cfl.pl/o...in/wdm402b.rar

They are working flawlessly on an SB Live! card.

As for the new apps, I had issues getting them to work and dropped the idea for now. The old apps will still work fine.
