chriss 013, We all tried this in the beginning of last year, connect 25 and 35 to get AC3 decoded through external source. But we only used Digital I/O to finish tempting and Optical In is required for input of stream from external device, eg. PlayStation 2. Not only Audigy2 card can do, Audigy sound card can also do this. micm said right, using Creative drivers and using PAX drivers are the same for decoding. I suggest you to use a Digital I/O for you card which costs about 10 dollars only to try it in that you have more functionality with your card.

Does this have the newer audigy2 drivers mixed into it too ? (i refrained from messing with the beta having already got the pax 1.2 drivers in place, didnt think it would mix to well installing over the top).

You must uninstall your current driver first, then install this driver. It will not effect (or should not effect) the newyearpack.

It works just fine on my setup.

I've got problems with those drivers when playing Source engine based games. Sounds are distorted and clipped. Despite this - this driver rocks!

I'm using version 4.00 on Audigy 2.

People, please read the info provided before installing ANYTHING. These drivers do not support Live cards unless Classic Leon forgot to mention it in the post he wrote which I doubt. Live cards usally have separate drivers released.

If it says a driver pack supports Audigy cards, do not assume they work on Live cards and vice versa. Even the model of different cards can be unsupported so check before installing.

Just a heads up.

the live is based on a different DSP chip than the audigy series - that is where the incompatibility may come from

I haven't experienced no problems with these drivers in any Source games. Are you sure you removed everything of Creative before installing these drivers?

Yes. I was using kX before, and I removed them using Driver Cleaner Pro. Maybe it has something to do with CMSS or things like that?

If you have the live card choose the live packages and drivers. If you feel like it you could try to install the newyear package first without installing drivers and try it out with the live drivers. Haven't got a clue but I guess it might halt when trying to install the newyear package since it cannot find the correct card. Again, READ the instructions and what cards are supported.

What do you mean? Is the "Enable Audio eEfects" button greyed out or something (meaning you can't place a check mark in it)? Or do you not know how to get to the EAX console? Also list your sound card and what did you do to install the Newyear Package? What driver did you use?

You have to uninstall previous drivers and software before you install the New Year Package and the new v4.00 driver? If you didnt do that, maybe that's why youre having problems. Probably some of your questions would be answered if you read through this entire thread (from post #1).

I have an Audigy sound card. The new v4.00 drivers will install if you install the New Year Package first, but I found that you have to install the New Year package using the option that includes the drivers. However, when, the window with the black guy pops up and you begin to install the Creative software, you can do a custom install and unselect Windows Drivers, so that you dont install the windows drivers Of the New Year package.

You can install the updates after the software is installed, and after a reboot, install the new v4.00 drivers. I would say do not try to install the New Year Package using the software only option! That didnt work for me. When using that install option, the Creative Splash Screen, and the window with the black guy on it, never pops up.

[color=#242f37][color=black]Sorry maybe i dont understand you exactly because i dont speak Eng well.[/color][/color]

[color=#242f37][color=black]How i can unselect win. drivers when i select to install them.[/color][/color]

[color=#242f37][color=black]And instalation without drivers in this Package works for me (with splash screen and screen with good guy) ,[/color][/color]
