Is the card detected by Windows (Device Manager) ?

Be aware that Creative's official 64bit drivers break if you have more than 4GB of RAM. Better to use DanielK's modified drivers on 64bit systems:

Maybe these work with your OEM card.

AFAICR, the bug/issue with more than 4GB RAM was present at X-FI launch time and resolved a long time ago in official drivers, if it is the same one that I vaguely recall. Are you referring to a different one or even perhaps an Audigy specific one that Imight not know about or remember ?

That being said, I agree there are very good reasons to try the Danielk ones, as you suggest.

If someone (like me) uses Audigy 2 as a sound card, and not as some kind of fetish of those times.
The drivers from Daniel_K add CMSS2 virtualization for headphones.
And I like its better.
Although some say that its is not a true.
