s2k · Jul 23, 2005, 05:11 PM

Can the Youp abd Audigy 4 drivers not be used with the Audigy 2 value?
What are best drivers for thsi card?

you may find that some of the yuopax driver sets may not work with this card, however the audigy 4 pro drivers should work (they are based on the same revision 10k2 chip)

So the normal Audigy 4 drivers from Creative you mean?

Can somome post a link to the modded Audigy 4 drivers. If its the ISO one then it didn't seem to work for me with the Audigy 2 Value. Had to use original driver. Plus the EQ crashed and the EAX screen would not even dispaly.

This is not the same revision.

A4 Pro is based on ca0102 chip:

A2 Value is based on ca0108 chip:

I'm getting an Audigy 2 Value fo my birthday at the end of the month. I didn't need the extra sound functionality of the ZS card so the value should be fine. My main use is gaming and i want full use of OpenAL and EAX4 for games. Can you tell me which drivers are best? I'm assuming the latest beta creative drivers will be the ones after reading lots of threads?? It also appears that the A4 modded drivers wont work with the value from what has been said above.

Can you help?

Thanks peeps.

No one?

starfury6 · Aug 9, 2005, 09:22 AM

So no one uses an Audigy 2 Value and has drivers installed....

Edit: no worries after reading lots of crap I have convinced the wife to get me an Audigy 2 ZS instead.

Nice find jiiteepee, I had a trawl through the creative forums but couldn't find that.

Thanks, will bear it in mind if I do end up with the Value.
