Hi I just upgraded from vista to windows7 and I get a distorted sound from the speakers on sky go and listening to music on you tube. I changed the speakers but still the same was ok before the upgrade thanks in advance.
Reminds me of an old Creative X-Fi sound card that worked under XP and 32bit Windows 7, but crapped out all the time under 64bit versions of Win 7.Hi replaced the sound card works fine now thanks for all your help.
That's interesting, I had never heard that tale although I do remember having that very issue with an old Creative Sound card a few years ago, I never did get it working properly if memory serves.Reminds me of an old Creative X-Fi sound card that worked under XP and 32bit Windows 7, but crapped out all the time under 64bit versions of Win 7.
Despite evidence all over the web that 3rd party drivers, though unstable, fixed the problems; Creative denied it was a problem, issued cease and desist notices to sites that hosted the 3rd party drivers (as the drivers were based on their XP64 drivers) and discontinued support for those cards.
Whilst all reports are that the current range of Creative sound cards are some of the best on the market, comparable to the Asus Xonar cards, I'll never buy another Creative product.
