        Saw the link for these the other day.

        IIRC the core drivers are still version .253 or so.

          If the core still is .253... why does Creative even bother releasing it!? >

              Speaker settings in Creative Audio Mixer are synchronized with Windows Multimedia setting.

                Since we're talking about Audigy, can someone please help me with this?

                The drivers have a checkbox for "Digital Output Only." If it's checked, then the digital output to my speakers works, but my headphones and microphone do not If I uncheck the box, then the headphone/mic are fine, but the speakers are off.

                With my SB Live! in the computer, the checkbox is there, but instead of the box doing (digital only/analogs only) it does (digital only/all outputs). Can I get my Audigy to do this? I'm tired of toggling that damn box.

                  Wombat:

                  I'll fiddle and get back to you. But you might get a quicker answer on the 3D Sound Surge forums.



                  WyWyWyWy:

                  Yeah, I downloaded these to double-check. Drivers are still .253 core, although a lot of the ancillary bugfixes from the .283 UDA driverset seem to have been incorporated.
