Creative labs SB live 5.1 - vista troubles

I'm really impressed with these drivers now.. the sound can be manipulated in many ways..

Yeah...

There's a screen in there somewhere where you can basically route stuff through the the on-board chips however you like, so you can unplug all the bits you're not using and streamline the bits you are.

I think I got my latency down to 8ms, which isn't bad for open-source drivers.

So that's what that screen is for. I did notice it before but thought it's best safe to leave alone cause I'll probably mess something up. For now that's stuff is way over my head, I don't quite understand it. I did try something today but it lead to loss of sound quality, so I did reinitialize the settings and was glad that the option was there. No routing for me today until I learn more about chips I guess and how it all works, cause one would probably need to know how something works before enhancing it's performance.

Kudos TM :)

Still very impressed with driver performance and all the options it offers.
