Speaker setting continues to revert to desktop speakers

[Guest]

After each restart of my computer the setting for my speakers reverts back to
Desktop speakers from the 5.1 Surround sound speakers. Everything works fine
when in surround sound speaker setting.

Does anyone know how to make this setting "stick" through restarts.

Thanks in advance.

After you changed the speaker settings did you click Apply first before
clicking OK? Try it, that sets and SAVES the settings.

Yeah I tried all the normal things. I have been all the way through the
device settings, etc.

I am thinking it is either a "stuck" registry or personal setting.

Thanks for the suggestion. Any others.

Try logging in using the machine Administrator account. Even if you are
logged in as "an" administrator on a regular basis (naughty!), I still
encounter drivers (Wacom comes to mind) that seem to be hard-wired to
"the" Administrator.

I have been having the same problem for months now with no help from anyone.
Good luck. I wish some one knew something about it. It is very aggravating to
have to go into control panel everytime I start the computer. I have an intel
MB, with sound blaster live sound card. Win XP with sp2. Creative's web site
is about useless for support. It's all questions with no answers.

I have same problem as everyone. Is there any other web site that actually
has answers instead of people like us asking questions? Please, none of us
needs any suggestion to "apply" settings....we get it.....it still doesn't
work.
