I downloaded it and Sound blaster wouldn't record audio. It's only for service pack 1-Not 2 (vista).

Is it worth even having service pack 2 on Vista?

I have Vista home premium 64 bit BTW.

Yeah, it's worth having SP2 installed. When I had it, Vista overall felt more responsive, not to mention having the better security and fixes it gives.

I don't use this software, sorry. My advice would be if you're having problems with it, then roll back the driver to the previous version that was working fine, in the Device Manager.
