    I recently misplaced my driver CD for the Creative X-Fi Xtreme Audio Notebook card and have not been able to find the software online the came on the CD.

    The drivers available online are only for the Creative Audio Console, which does not allow routing of the audio into the notebook speakers, nor does it virtualize surround sound into headphones. I don't recall the specific name of the app, but here is a screenshot of it:

    (Not the actual app for this particular card, but looks almost identical)

    Anybody know where to find this program, or if you have the CD yourself, would be able to upload a copy of it to me if I give you FTP credentials for my FTP server?

    Thanks!

    Perhaps Accessories section was not the best place for this topic. I guess I was considering it an accessory. Moving to hardware section.

    lol was gonna say its right on the creative page.

    It used to be a major pain to find the software as they only had the drivers and I had to torrent the software since I got my x-fi on ebay with no disk, but now they have everything on there site including some newer/better stuff that was not on the disks.

    X-Fi has been a good card to me, too bad Vista does not support half of the stuff it can do :(
