StaffSaberist Posted December 31, 2005 Share Posted December 31, 2005 Hi, everybody! I wanted to celebrate my Christmas gift (7.1 surround system) so I plugged it in, painstakingly, and I turned on EAX Sound from Creative Labs. My speakers are also Creative, so I figured there would be no problems. Wrong-O! The sound seems... well... broken up. I guess I should say that the sounds don't mix like they should. So instead of hearing *Saber hum, blaster fire, defection, saber swing, music all together* I hear *Sab-* *Blas-* *De-* *Swi-* *music* uh... I can support this, my computer's all set up for Surround. So what's the deal, here? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crow_Nest Posted January 1, 2006 Share Posted January 1, 2006 I've never heard of a sound problem like that before. the 1.01 patch is supposed to improve EAX support right? Why isnt it "improving" it already? Also, have you ensured you got the latest sound drivers from Creative? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StaffSaberist Posted January 1, 2006 Author Share Posted January 1, 2006 I do. And to be safe, I downloaded them again. Nothing. It's all broken-up like usual. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Det. Bart Lasiter Posted February 9, 2006 Share Posted February 9, 2006 What kind of video sound card is it? There are a lot of 7.1 cards on the market. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are a lot of 7.1 cards on the market. lol, i think you mean sound card not video card Im sure the prices of the Audigy 2s should drop after the release of the new Creative X-Fi's. Go grab one of them, you should be ok after that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
