USB Audigy 2 NX

Anyone have the Audigy 2 NX USB? If so, has anyone
managed to get it to work under USB 2.0? It shows up
under the Basic USB Root Hub and not the USB 2 Root Hub.
I have installed all the latest drivers but still no joy.
Creative say that is a bug in Windows XP, and that
Microsoft are working on a patch for it. If anyone has
this patch, can they please tell me where they got it? It
seems strange that a supposed USB 2.0 ready device wont
use it.

My PC spec is:-
AMD Athlon XP2200+
MSI 6590 v1.0 Motherboard (VIA Apollo KT400 Ultra)
512MB PC 2700 DDR SDRAM
80 GB S-ATA HD
Creative USB Audigy 2 NX

Hi,

I would first suggest you to update the mobo chipset
drivers and the BIOS.

Have you installed SP1a ?
If yes, there is an update patch for USB1.1 and 2.0 from
the windows update site in the recommended update column.

Hi,
I have the latest BIOS available for my mobo, Hi have SP1
installed but not SP1a. I downloaded the USB updates in
work as i have the internet there, so i have all the
latest USB drivers. Dont have the internet at home, so i
need the full version of SP1a from microsoft or wait for
it to appear on a cover cd of a magazine. I have the
latest chipset drivers available also. I have a USB 2
scanner, which is being recognised properly. I know that
with ever new driver release for the Audigy 2 NX, the
firmware is uprgaded. The only thing I can think of is
that the drivers and firmware to make it use USB 2.0
haven't been released yet. What's ur view on that? It
seems stupid that Creative would release a product that is
USB 2.0 ready, and not have the proper drivers ready.
That doesn't sound like Creative to me.

I bought a USB 2.0 controller PCI card just in case there
was a design flaw on the mobo USB controller, but that
didn't work either.

Any other ideas?

If you have SP1 you don't need SP1a, as they are almost the same, the
difference being SP1a doesn't include java (MS-VirtualMachine) "as per
agreement" (=dispute) with Sun.
