Sound detection crash

Post by ZeroPhnx »

My sound card is a SoundBlaster Audigy Advanced MB (according to Creative) but runs through another program called Sigmatel.

It supports (to my knowledge and testing) Directsound, Directsound 3D, and EAX.

Whenever D3 tries to detect it in the setup window, the launcher crashes. I'm not sure if this problem is with Sigmatel or D3 (my guess is the former). The game runs perfectly fine, but it would be nice to have EAX running.

Anybody know any other way to turn on EAX or to get D3 to run a clean detection on my card?

All suggestions are appreciated.

As a sidenote, everything for my card and for D3 is up to date (1.4 Mercenary). Does anyone else use (or have to use)Sigmatel for their notebooks audio?
