[chooch]

Hi,
Where can I find this list?

[Scotteq]

If it works in Vista, it will work in 7

 

[chooch]

Why? There are new windows 7 drivers fir my X-Fi

 

[Scotteq]

Then use the optimized drivers.

When those aren't available, or don't work well, you may use the corresponding Vista drivers.

 

[chooch]

But the vista drivers didn't work...

 

[Zoron]

The Win 7 drivers don't then either? Creative really drags their feet getting decent drivers out... that's why I started sticking with onboard audio.

 

[nukemaster]

Try the Daniel_K Driver pack.

 

[Nik_I]

the drivers should work, but maybe the installer doesn't. try manually installing the drivers from the device manager. i just used the same drivers as i did for vista for my auzentech sound card and it's just as functional as it was under xp and under vista.

No hardware compatibility list for Windows 7 yet, even at this late stage. Sound cards are a definite issue, especially the ASUS MB ones created by Creative. The final release of Windows 7 renders even more sound cards useless. Most of the fuxes that worked with the beta releases of Windows 7 do nor work anymore. Good luck, I'm waiting for the list too.

 

[chipottley]

I would like to see this list as well!!!

It may be a dumb question, but if I have a Sound Blaster 16 PCI Digital Sound card. (Model CT4730) and I'm running Win7ultimate 64, can I run "onboard" sound? and if so, how? (I have an "845 Ultra Ver:1" Motherboard)

 

[gamerk316]

Frankly, both Auzentech and C-Media have released Windows 7 drivers, so every major card NOT made by Creative has official 7 support (Remember, any C-media based card can always fall back on the default C-media driver).

As for Creative, considering how bad their drivers are to begin with, maybe "support" is the wrong word to be using?

 

[Guest]

NOPE. "if it works in Vista, it works w/7. NOPE. NOT TRUE-
PLEASE, stop posting answers that are not true. Misleading people looking for real answers to real problems don't need it.

Hello there,

It is always best to check with the software manufacturer FIRST. They will tell you if they have tested the product and the version, as well as whether or not it will work with Windows 7.
Check out the Windows 7 Compatibility site: (There you will find out about hardware and software compatibilty.)
http://www.microsoft.com/windows/compatibility/en-us/default.aspx
There is a pulldown from which you can choose "hardware" and "software".

Microsoft does have an official Windows 7 Support Forum located here http://tinyurl.com/9fhdl5 . It is supported by product specialists as well as engineers and support teams. You may want to check the threads available there for additional assitance and support.
Thanks again,
John M.

Hello Guys... 6 months inactive>>>>really!!!!
creative support is really good.. but i think win7 is the problem cuz the same hardware works great in vista, but in win7 i have a laggy, glitchy voice espicially when surf the web and play video clip or mp3 file

 

[Ajay_29]

Frankly, both Auzentech and C-Media have released Windows 7 drivers, so every major card NOT made by Creative has official 7 support (Remember, any C-media based card can always fall back on the default C-media driver).

As for Creative, considering how bad their drivers are to begin with, maybe "support" is the wrong word to be using?
