    Creative SB - Live! Value - distorted sound


    After installing Windows 7 - 64 bit 7077

    my sound is somehow distorted (and not clear).

    I have
    Creative SB - Live! Value , PCI
    I checked on creative website, and I installed the following
    SBL_PC64DRVBETA_LB_2_03_0005.exe
    LiveDrvUni-Pack(ENG).exe

    Same thing!

    I saw that windows update installed and updated 2-3 times the driver but still the same thing.

    Also at one point the sound stops completely.
    Then if I go to :
    Sound - Playback - Speakers (of the creative device) - Properties - Custom
    Then uncheck and check "Digital Output only" the sound is back for a bit.



    For now Im working with an older C-Media 8738 card wich had good drivers on its website and works for now.
    It has another problem - if I click on the icon of C-Media software in the system tray it freezes.
    From this icon I can switch between 2 and 4 speakers etc etc
    For now I do not click on this icon ...

    Thanks!

    Looks like my problem. I downloaded the drivers and attempted install.


    Cannot confirm yet if its working. Enabling my creative card freezed the pc.
    (maybe I even disabled it because of that). On all further restarts freeze again. This shouldnt be a driver issue. (the pc was with 1 onboard and 2 pci sound cards. Yet shouldnt be a problem but ...)

    Ill play with it when I have more time.
