I keep reading in multiple locations that the Sound Blaster Audigy 2 NX will *NOT* work with USB 1.1, but on Creative's website, they mention that USB 2.0 is only required for 24-bit/96kHz 5.1 playback. The unit works with 98SE, ME, 2000, and XP, but the features page also mentions "USB 2.0 is only supported in Windows XP."

Sound Blaster Audigy 2 NX Features

Has anyone tested it with USB 1.1 and how well does work?

I have a laptop that only has USB 1.1 onboard, so I would have to use a PCMCIA card for 2.0 and I'm not sure what the performance differences would be between the two.

Thanks
