My creative labs 5.1 live soundcard was not compatible with Vista so I've
enabled the onboard sound on my ABit BE7 Raid motherboard. My speakers do
not have a bass adjustment knob so in XP I could adjust the bass from the
volume mixer by double clicking the speaker icon in the tray and clicking on
advanced. I can't seem to do that in Vista, I have tried the MS drivers and
the proper AC '97 drivers, both only have volume, no treble or bass
adjustment.

If I by a cheap-ish creative Vista compatible sound card do you think I'll
get my bass adjustment back, has any one got a Creative card, if so could
you please let me know about the adjustments.

Thanks

Marcus

This is a really cheapo card (listening to Pink Floyd right now!)

Hello Carlos,

Can you adjust the bass though ??

Marcus

hey guys, I just upgraded my PC from XP Pro to Vista Home Ultimate. I have a
creative Audigy soundcard installed and after getting the latest drivers the
sound card works ok in Vista. However, like Carols I have no way of
adjusting the bass/treble in Vista. I have looked thru various settings in
Vista and nothing shows the availability of bass/treble adjustment. Any
ideas if this is supported or not these days? Thanks. TJ

Right-click the speaker icon at the bottom-righthand side of the window.

Click PLAYBACK DEVICES, then double-click on "speakers"
Click the TONE tab

That's the way it's done here, using Audigy 4. Also might be available
on the speakers themselves.

Thanks Dev that worked perfectly.
