Aureal SQ2500 and W2K Pro.

mdkathon · Jul 10, 2002, 09:36 AM

I'm trying to find out more information on how to find/install drivers correctly. I can't find anything online about drivers for this card in W2K.

Anyone know ANYTHING on where I can find drivers, or how to use older ones in W2K? I have an Aureal SQ2500 and I really want to use it!

Thanks in advance,

The latest drivers for your soundcard can be found here:

http://www.vortexofsound.com/drivers/drv_v2wdm.htm

The main site is http://www.vortexofsound.com (you can find more fun stuff for your card in this site, I guess).

Also does anyone have any good tips, tricks, etc that they've learned? vortex of sound is good, but i'd like to know more since I've had issues getting it to totally work..

thanks!

If you want A3D with drivers that work in Win2K with no heachaches; I hate to say it but you really should upgrade to something esle. I would recommend one of the Hercules, or Philips sound cards. You will not have to spend too much to get back the sound you love.

Necrosis,

I figured at much, just trying to stall.

Thanks though, I think it is about time, I'm trying to wait a little longer so I can see if the new VIA Envy24 is going to be good.

Thanks again.
