Another Sound Blaster post, the drivers in Windows 7 beta just don't work with Creative Sound Blasters. The problem is random crackling so bad I can't hear. There for a few minutes, then it works, then it's back.

There is no Vista driver on the Creative site for the original Audigy (yes, I run the original Audigy - old school). I ripped it out and am running on on-board sound.

Anyone know of a driver that will work for the Audigy series?

Sound blaster crackle problem

On the Sound Blaster issue -
This is what worked for me -
Using the default driver that Windows Update selects and installs -
Go tho the proporties of your device - Make SPDIF your default device -
Set your sound settings in the properties on the advanced tab of your speaker and SPDIF to - 24bit-96000Hz -

This solved it for me with Sound Blaster Audigy 2 ZS - and i assume it will for others as well -

I found this option after 4 days of reintalling every driver I can find -
The problem is NOT in the drivers - well it is - But - It works if you chose 24 bit sound - and it sounds a lot better too :razz:!

LOL -
Sorry for all the typos - My batteries were bad and I did not check before...
I'd try the above download.. Oh don't forget to uninstall the old driver first..

Failing any of the Above working use google and search for DanielK his driver packs work I have 1 audigy 2 and 1 ZS using the danialk driver and they work like they should using anything from creatives site fails miserably
 


This driver does work on 32-bit Windows 7, and all of the included applications have been tested, and work. This driver pack is the only one to my knowledge with the most up to date drivers from Creative.
