Audigy 2 ZS UT2004/Mic/TeamSpeak problems!!!

coot · Nov 19, 2004, 06:24 PM

I recently purchased an Audigy 2 ZS to upgrade from my old SB live 5.1, mainly to make good use of EAX.

However, when enabling HW 3D + EAX in the UT2004 audio options, the game feels very strange and it totally messes up my aim. Changing to normal 3D Audio brings my aim back to normal.

Not only that, but now my microphone doesn't seem to work properly. I have a Sennheiser PC150 headset with noise cancelling mic but the mic doesn't seem to cancel noise anymore with this card, if I record a sound in the windows sound recorder I can hear ambient noises like the sound of myself typing. Also, the microphone is really screwed in TeamSpeak 2 - All other users in the channel hear a horrible echo and cannot make out what I'm saying. The noise cancelling mic fails in TeamSpeak 2 and everyone can hear me typing.

This is with the creative ZS latest drivers.

Please help this is driving me insane, this £60 "upgrade" has done nothing but cause problems and i'm 10 times worse off than I was before with my old SB Live 5.1.

Thanks

use the live in the same system, and have that run the kX drivers and use it with teamspeak

If I use 2 cards in the same system, won't they conflict if I use differnet drivers?

no, several members of the kX forum here have managed to instal the creative drivers for the audigy 2 first, and then when installing kX clicking on cancel for the card with creative drivers on it
the model numbers you may need to remember are
SB0350 for the A2ZS
SB0060/SB010x/SB022x For the live 5.1
