Dear Forum, Anyone try to use the alternative driver for SBLive/Audigy from kX Project ? I hope someone would share experience if already try that driver, since the Creative's support for Live/Audigy is very bad.

A long long time ago when I actually used or was forced to use Creative cards the kx drivers were definitely more stable IMHO. I suppose the same could be said about the very nice Omega version of Nvidia drivers now too:)

Thank you for the reply, last night I try to use the latest Kx driver, it's OK with stereo mp3 and ogg, but problem with 5.1 ac3 :( So, I stay with the Creative's driver.

Hi, I also had a problem with AC3 in Windows 2000 using the kX driver. Also the latest Creative driver from August resolved nearly all my problems (apart from Vorbis 5.1). As far as I know also Direct3D and EAX aren't implemented fully, so when you play a game... Cheers, tiki4

Sorry ookzDVD, I should have mentioned I really only used the driver with SPDIF so didn't thoroughly test it. Check this page out also-

@MaTTeR, It's OK, no problem at all ;) @tiki4, Hi, nice to see you reply my post, I think we have the same problem ;) Vorbis 5.1 still not working without ChannelDownmix filter. I'm still waiting the next Creative's driver update, but I dunno when :( I hope the release of Audigy 2 will make new progress on the driver development ;)
