Audigy2 ZS betas

robprime · Jan 4, 2006, 12:41 AM

Hello,

I'm wanting to update my sound card drivers- (and clean up the remains of a couple previous cards w/ driver cleaner) In an effort to get a little better performance and maybe resolve a CTD issue while playing x3.

I saw some Audilgy2 betas on the Creative site and they are supposed to work good with x3- But they say they require XP Sp2 and I have Sp1, and don't care to update to Sp2. Is there some way I can install them anyway?

I think those beta drivers are older than the newest YouP-PAX driver set (which is based on the newest X-FI driver).

I used to use the beta, and it's great... but I think the newest YouP-PAX driver set sounds better.
