- Thanks, I heard that there was a problem with this card working with y7100 but not that Creative has dropped it... maybe I'll write them to see if they'll give me a replacement for my lemon.

It is hard to say. It seems Creative no longer supports the Audigy 5.1 card, however if the sound card is in your system Creative does have a site that Auto updates your card. It's worth the try.

There may be a fix here at Microsoft at this link.

The Audigy 2 Value seems to be the next generation software which includes the audigy 5.1

- You should be able to install these drivers from creative at this link. They may be newer than what was on the CD that came with the sound card. http://us.creative.com/support/downloads/welcome.asp?action=next
