    On Windows Update, it says the date is 3/13/07.

    I really HOPE this fixes that BUG I had where Vista lagged at boot up for a good 20 seconds then the screen flashes and then you were good to go. For the past month, I've just been using Vista's native audio driver as it didn't have the Conextant problem.

    I'll let you guys know if this new version fixes the problem.

    Well, bad news. It didn't fix that Start up bug. Back to the native Vista audio drivers again for me....

    Here's the version number and date for those wondering:
