[quote][i]Originally posted by Federelli [/i][b]will creative ever release drivers for soundblaster live! 5.1?? [/b][/quote] I tried to install them for my live! 5.1 and obviously it didn't work.Then I went to my Windowstemp folder and found the setup files that were extracted in CRF000Drivers and ran CTZAPXX.exe which updated my 5.1 drivers with whatever new version is in that folder.The current 5.1 drivers suck atm because when you turn EAX on in games, its usually makes the fps worse then without like in UT2K3. Something to do with the OpenAL acceleration which these audigy/5.1 drivers claim to fix.

guess it's taking a while then to optimize the drivers for xp... lot's of crackles and noisy eax
-
All audigy driver packs are compatible with the Live! 5.1, u just have to use the method described above to install the DRIVER.
-
I'd give Creative's drivers and driver support about a 4/10.. They are usually functional, but buggy. Updates come so rarely I consider them a Christmas gift... Creative's drivers suck. But hey, they usually sort of work. I guess that's all we can expect. :rollseyes:
-
is it alright to do that driver thing? i've tried once, but there was no sound, what do you think?
-
actually even with an audigy and these new drivers u lose fps when u enable eax... creative sucks, period
-
EAX sux, better stick with Software 3D Audio i.e. Stereo
-
u can always use a3d at least, eax sound crracky on my pc anyway...
