Just downloaded. Other then some reassignment on 5.1 it works great on my X-Fi Fatal1ty. Initial testing on music CD I must say it is better then Support Pack 2.0 Thanks.

X-Fi support pack 2.0 has Volume Panel 2.21.10, is there a good reason why this pack has version 2.21.08?

And big thanks for this pack!

Hello guys,

I would like to instal these drivers, but i don´t know if it works on my Xp SP3. Can you someone please tell if it works for you on xp ?

Thanks

Thanks, I use the Prelude Beta pack you made available earlier, so going to update to this pack.

I'm also downloading the new Creative beta driver made available, but I dunno if that will work without constant crackling on my older nforce motherboard with 4GB.

I don't understand the driver streams Creative has, and I wish Creative would clear it up.

2.14.0001.25

2.18.0013

2.20.0000.20

I'm currently using 2.20.0000.20 with an XtremeMusic, is there any reason i should be using 2.14.0001.25 instead?

This driver works well for people with some nForce motherboards and 4GB memory with 64-bit Windows 7 and Vista. For me it solved the "constant crackling problem" that the standard drivers have when using 4GB+ in Windows 7 64-bit. That problem is fairly specific for certain configurations with 4GB memory and motherboards.

Otherwise you might want to stick with the standard driver.
