    Old Soundblaster live! with LiveDrive 2 works but only with the kxproject drivers, the win update drivers give terrible sound.

    Any M-Audio Delta family card should work with the new Vista SP1 x64 drivers.
    Please see my post to obtain them as the M-Audio installer will refuse to install them even though they work fine

    M-Audio Delta family 64-bit driver HERE!

    There seems to be the same issue with W7 as was for Vista. Now MS calls this NVIDIA Sound Card (hope they fixed this by now).

    Update: checkout my blog posting above, I just put a new link to a driver that just started to work for me (had installed it for sometime now and it now plays sound without obvious link to which Win7 update caused the fix - had installed Windows Live Essentials which also installs DirectX runtime and other stuff which may be related to why the driver now works, but not sure)

    Creative X-Fi XtremeGamer Fatal1ty installed with no problems using the apps from the installation CD, and the latest driver for Vista x64 from Creative's Site.
    I had to run the installer for the drivers with Vista compatibility mode though, but not with the rest of the apps on the CD.

    Haven't installed Alchemy yet, and the driver work perfectly fine with games and apps.

    Both 2.0/2.1 and 5.1 modes work for me (using analog out), but you need to change the setting on both the Windows Sound Control Panel and in Creative's Console, else it will work in whatever mode you left it on the Windows Sound CP.

    I'm quite sure all X-Fi cards will work.

    There seems to be the same issue with W7 as was for Vista (had found a driver that worked after lots of searching, but the links to it are now broken). Now MS calls this NVIDIA Sound Card (obviously cause they bought-off ASUS). If no-one can find that driver I can look at my backup in case I can find it
    hello fellow MVP and welcome...

    the reason is because cmedia has changed their domain...
    C-Media Electronics | Total PC Audio Solutions

    i cant be certain if they still hold the drivers but you should check there...

    also a Cmedia (will check the model later) and almost any realtek sound card is compatible OOB and can be enhanced with realtek drivers (had the best luck) or the OEM manufacturer....
