JUST got my audigy 2 zs at best buy. was wondering if I should install the full installion in the drivers or the driver only? what are the advantages and disadvantages? I have the full installion on here right now but I'm still wondering. thanks a bunch!

[Mr.Radar]

IIRC, the full installation installs the drivers and Creative's crappy control panels. Try just installing the drivers and using the alternative control panel described here.

 

[justi]

whats IIRC mean? and should I just do like a uninstall of the drivers right now and a driver cleaner then install the driver only option? thanks again

 

[Mr.Radar]

IIRC means "If I Recall Correctly".

If you've already installed the full installation then there is no advantage in switching to the driver-only install unless you have problems with Creative's control panles.

 

[justi]

they are rather bulky so I decided to uninstall them and do drivers only, I can't find the panel the guy was talking about in that post tho. I will get the driver update and see if it shows up after that.

 

[justi]

yeh, after the update that file shows up. SO VERY MUCH BETER THAN ALL THAT CREATIVE JUNK! thanks a bunch man!

With everything installed is seem to remember the computer booting with an extra 100 megs of Creative stuff in memory. That alone made me do a driver only install.

 

[justi]

yeh I saw that right before I did the driver only and was like wow I shoulda just saw that

 

[justi]

can someone help me with my audigy I don't like the EQ really =/ I have HD570s and it sounds really bass and like its blowing out the speakers, any ideas on fixing this up?

Take the volume control, drop the bass setting as necessary, and for EQ, drop the lower frequencies until it sounds correct
