Guys, is your Audigy 2zs still working in windows 10 or 11 ?
I think Microsoft finally killed it.
It does not work anymore even with the Audigy RX drivers.
Audio is erratic.

No official driver has worked since Win10 1903. The unofficial Daniel_K driver packs might still work.

Microsoft recently announced that it will no longer support drivers with expired certificates, which may be related.
Daniel re-signed his driver packs with some third-party Chinese certificate.
XFi works with his driver pack on the latest version of Windows.

These events truly unfolded only this summer.
