Re: New Creative X-FI Drivers Released!

I wonder if this would fix the graphic EQ "The hardware supported by this application cannot be detected. This application will exit." error that I keep getting with my Audigy2 ZS.

Wish I could afford an x-fi. :dead:

You need to completely uninstall and re-install using the setup disc provided with the card. Unfortunately Creative doesn't allow full software downloads from their website (hopefully they will in the future).

I am running the new drivers but have yet to test them. So far so good though.
