Anyone having problems w/ the new Win2k/XP SB Live drivers?

[BigToque]

The volume seems soooo low now, even when I crank my system up (Its connected to my HT setup). Also, it alse seems like there is a fade in/out when you try to scroll through songs and also when you start and stop songs. Sometimes I don't even get any sound at all.

I've tried re-installing the drivers a few times but always the same problems. Now I'm just using the Win2k drivers supplied by MS. My fading problem is still here w/ these drivers now as well.

I had the low volume problem too and didn't feel like spending time figuring it out so I rolled back to the old drivers.

I dont have dolby digital output with them, and no option for "live surround". Just 2 or 4 speakers

I had to turn up the volume in the mixer, otherwise it defaulted to a very low sound.

It sets the volume back to like 20%. Just change it.

However, the drivers screwed up the sound in Nascar 2002 when racing side by side.. especially in turns. The audio gets all screwed up.

I have trouble loading really big soundfonts. (eg ~140MB Fluid3)

Is there anybody not having problems with creative labs sound drivers. I wish Aureal Vortex 2 chips could make a comeback.

Get ready for a shock,8 years of using Creative sound card drivers and I`ve had no problems over that period of time 😉.
