Hello! I'm putting away my CRT and 98/XP era systems away for the summer, and will be using my boring Windows 10, i7 etc system and flatscreen monitor.

I have a X-Fi that I'm using well with Windows 10, Alchemy, not too bad, and do have access to EAX 2,3,4,5, but it doesn't support EAX1, and that's the issue, i do like a bit of Baldur's Gate, the original of course, not EE, and can get it working fine, but the best thing about this game is the incredible EAX, and i just can't seem to get working.

Alchemy with the X-Fi will allow it to be enabled, it does not work in game though
I switched to a Xonar DG soundcard at one point, as it suppotrs up to EAX2, and it does work in this game and I get the effects, but the sound seems a bit off/like a blended jitter to it.
I have tried some DSOAL files I have found specifically for Baldur's Gate online, it enabled EAX, but seems to just add reverb and nothing else.

Has anyone got a solution that I can try, and get good old EAX back, the way it's supposed to sound? Worese case I'll just bring back my old system, but trying to keep it cool in the office!
