Sound Cards **That WORK**

C-Media 8788 soundcards work fine too with the latest Windows 7 drivers from Auzentech (X-Meridian).

Works with beta driver for Windows 7 64 bit. PowerDVD does not work with this driver.

Update: The latest Asus Xonar drivers for Win 7 work perfectly however...for the drivers to work properly with the newer versions of Win7 "7200 and up" you will need to install the patch from the Xonar driver Vista 64 page in the Asus driver download section. It's right at the top of the page.

The patch description doesn't say anything about this fix but it works perfectly none the less.

If you don't install the patch you will see that IE locks up and most of the control panel is non operational.

It's best to install both the Win7 Asus Xonar drivers and the Vista patch before rebooting. The patch only takes one second to install.

Reposted this fix for Asus Xonar owners.

Nvidia 8800GTX 768MB PCI-E works fine on my setup.

Yup, just tried that and it seems to have fixed things.

Happy boy now, thank you!

:)

And now it's pumped again.

Have changed nothing, and the mic is back to being all garbled etc.

Tried a driver reinstall, but just the same.

Pah.

The Auzentech Xploion 7.1 Dts connect works can that be added to the list and there's also a win7 driver over at there website i can confirm it works in x64 also

Sound Blaster X-Fi Xtreme Audio works with default drivers.

IDT Audio 92xx

Intel 945x motherboards

Works - With tweaking ...

I can't test the optical output, only the analog, 5.1. I've had a great experience with using the Windows 7 64 drivers from Asus for the P5Q PRO Turbo motherboard onboard sound VIA VT1708S.

The file i downloaded is named VIA_Audio_V6017100_Windows7.zip Windows 7 ids it as 6.0.1.7100 dated 5/8/2009 from VIA Technologies, Inc.


I've tested the sound in MS Flight Simulator X, Caesar IV, and The Sims 3 as well as music in iTunes. I was a little concerned when I bought the board that it had VIA onboard sound rather than Realtek, but I am very pleased with the VIA onboard sound. At least on the analog side the drivers definitely work.
