Vista - Creative Sound Blaster Audigy 2 ZX Platinum

Hi,

I have this card, actual driver from creative and cannot bring the windows
to use my creative 5.1 analog system.
There is always music only from front speakers and SubWoofer.

I wonder if somebody has already seen this problem or solved it.

When I go to the speakers settings, there is that I have only 2 speakers,
when I switch to 5, the sound stops to work, and I have to reinstall the
driver.

I assume it is error of the beta driver from creative, but if You know some
solution, please let me know.


Thanks in advance

richard
