Creative X Fi 7-12-06 Drivers

[Guest]

Has anyone had any luck with the new creative drivers released on 7-12-06 for
the X Fi series sound cards? I spent a few hours yesterday trying different
things; disabled UAP, firewall, windows defender, after f8 at boot up
disabled compatibility warning, ran the suggested script given by Creative.
Uninstalled after each attempt with reboot <sigh>. Good thing it’s just a
hobby! I am going to burn the new drivers on a disk after work today and try
all the other stuff and see what happens… . If anyone has had similar
problems please share your thoughts/suggestions.
Thanks,

Did you run the setup.exe that gets extracted into the CFR000\Drivers
directory? That is the only way I've ever got it working and it worked with
the old driver too.

Worked (after a fashion) for me! More details in the post linked below. -Ron

I did run the setup.exe file. Still no luck. I even burned a new driver disk
and tried it from the disk. Thnaks you guys I will take another look at it
tonight after work.
Have a great day! Happy Friday!

I have the Elite Pro card and in both drivers my external console
ceased to function and as I have 7900 Inspire 7.1 speakers I was given
the option of 2.1 setup.
I uninstalled the Vista drivers completely and installed the latest XP
drivers v. 2.07.0004 as the 2.09 drivers released in the beginning of
july do not support the Elite Pro card (for some reason :?: ), thus
re-enabling EAX, CMSS Surround and my trusty external console. As you
have the Extreme Music card, you should get the 2.09 drivers.
