Install Audigy4 drivers on your SB Live!/Audigy/Audigy 2/Audigy2 ZS

The latest driver modded using Audigy4 drivers, but it does no work with Audigy4.

Cnbeta Pax V1.0 driver was produced by admin_guo and YouP through a new mod method without modding any system files(For Win2000、WinXP、Win2003、Win98se、WinMe、Longhorn & etc. operating system). These drivers are optimized for X86,Ia64 and Amd64; and support SBLive, but we haven't been tested for most SBLive cards more.(not strongly recommended to install on SBLive). Support Audigy（not Audigy LS）、Audigy2、Audigy2 ZS series. Please install DX 9.0C or higher version before you install these drivers. To ensure your installation complete, please uninstall all sound drivers now you are using! Use PAX uninstaller to remove current PAX drivers, do not to use Cnbeta Pax V 1.0 uninstaller to remove the old drivers on your OS.

If you are using Windows XP, you would better have at least one NTFS partition on your hard disk (it can be any path). If you have NTFS partition, your volume of analog output will be at least twice higher as the volume without NTFS partition. It suits for headphone, and analog output has improvement with headphone. Turn down your speaker volume (on your speakers) lower than 60% of it before install the drivers.

The drivers have been re-uploaded. PAX NewYear 1.2 drivers you are downloading now have no language issue. If you downloaded these drivers before, you have to look at words below to fix language issue:

or

And thank DaEnigma and hacker3000 for providing the help.

You just need to extract this file to be 3 files and copy them to "C:\WINNT\System32\"(to this path if your system is Window2000. If your OS is Window XP, the path should be c:\WINDOWS\system32) only. Next, cut them out from "C:\WINNT\System32\", and then copy them to "C:\WINNT\System32\" again.

also, the installer readme says its not meant for audigy2zs except audigy1. true cos im using audigy2zs

 

if these are not meant for audigy 2 zs then does anybody know where i can find some modded drivers that are good for gameing and are not kx related???thx

 

the old pax drivers sound better than these

I've installed it hoping that in Audigy4 drivers they fixed this bass redirection thing...but they still don't fix it

Classic Leon => maybe You can help me with that (I see that You are professional driver modder) bas redirection ? Can You (it's not only my request - on official creative europe forum is hundreds of people searching for anser of that question) mod this Audigy4 drivers (or orginal drivers for Audigy 2 ZS) to have bass redirection option working only on subwoofer output without cutting base from front/rear/center speakers ??? Please !!! I can't find nobody who can do it You are my last hope...no one in any forum can help me...
