I recently installed an AV-710 on my second puter. Have had another for over a year with the 473b driver. I installed the current 500b driver on the new machine and it sounds fine. I'm using the rear hi-sample rate analog channels, and the resolution can be set on 96 or 192, it doesn't seem to matter. OK. I've read that people have experienced better sound with 473b drivers, and since I have them on hand I figured why not give it a try. I used the Audio deck Uninstall feature to remove the 500b driver. There is no mention of Audio Deck, Envy 24, or VIA in Add/Remove Programs btw. After the uninstall utility runs, one ini file is left in Programs/Audio Deck folder. I manually deleted that and then reboot. i install the 473b driver, and reboot. Lo and behold there's the same 500b Audio Deck that I tried to uninstall and thought I had. Went thru the whole thing again with same result. Do I have to manually scrub the registry or what? If it's too involved I'll just stick with this driver which sounds fine. It's just, what if it could sound better...
