x-fi drivers

I've had the x-fi xtreme gamer for ages, and back when I played cod2 on XP I just used the drivers that came on the disk along with the card and they worked brilliantly. Since I changed to Vista though, I can't seem to get the same functionality (i.e. control panel, EAX in games like cod2/DiRT/BF2142) that I did before. Obviously the old drivers don't work, so does anyone know where I can get drivers that'll do something useful? There's no point me having a 50 quid sound card if it doesn't work properly :|
Also it's 64 bit Vista :O

that's because of vista.
on XP the X-Fi accessed the os-kernel afaik, which is impossible now.
and how about www.creative.com? =/ |

I've tried about 3 different versions of drivers and none are any good... I might give that guys 3rd party drivers a go to see if they allow me to at least use EAX in games :/ |

Didn't you get a XP and a Vista driver cd with your sound card? At least I got those when I bought my X-Fi Gamer. Tho, I dont know if it's meant for 32/64bit. |

I bought it before vista came out, so I just have a (very old) XP disk. I'll try installing openAL, and if it doesn't work I'll try head-fi.org :P |

Got the newest ones off the site just to see what kind of difference they make. With a bit of tweaking in the audio console thing, it's now actually interesting to listen to music again, and games (all games I've tried anyway) have pinpoint accurate sound. AWESOME MATEZ |
