Re: microphone boost on audigy 2 with newer drivers
Yeah I've been through the audio setup stuff already here. I probably will have to contact creative support and see what they suggest. The drivers did work at one time so somehow they've broken something somewhere.

Re: microphone boost on audigy 2 with newer drivers
The creative site says the ZS drivers aren't compatible with the standard Audigy 2 so I doubt it would help.

microphone boost on audigy 2 with newer drivers
Hi Everyone, Well I seem to have a rather bizarre problem here. Using newer drivers for the SB Audigy 2 will not allow me to check the microphone boost. When I check it and then verify it's checked, it's not. If I use my original drivers that came with the card the option works but the machine blue screens from time to time randomly. I wiped the machine this weekend and put XP home SP3 back on the machine with the same results. I verified the cause of the blue screen crashes to be the ctaud2k.sys file which is one of the sound card driver files by using the Microsoft debug tools and a third party front end for the GUI. Not sure if this is because of SP3 or Jaws as the problem doesn't seem to happen with other screen readers as far as I can tell so far. Any advice for fixing the problem is appreciated as I very much need the microphone boost feature to work here. BTW I've tried drivers from both the microft update and from creative directly.
