A couple of the versions of drivers I tried were signed, so that is not the problem. At this point I'm not really interested in troubleshooting that particular card in Windows because I've seen similar issues with older Creative products on newer versions of Windows before, and I have little hope of resolving the issue. And it seems wrong to ask a LUG for help getting something to work in Windows! Thanks for the idea, though. On the upside, this issue has caused me to re-assess what I actually NEED to use Windows for, and with a little bit of work, I may be able to use Windows so rarely that I won't even care if sound works. We'll see how that works out. - Justin
