Has anybody had the issue with the Audigy and WinXP where the sound is very choppy during certain game cinematics? I am having issues with choppy sound in Red Alert II and Civilization III, I have installed the update supplied by Creative as well.

Kensington VideoCAM W2K firmware upgrade -> Shift back?

deathphoenix
I was using WinME (don't laugh) until it completely crapped out after I got a new hard disk, and decided to upgrade to Win2000. According to all the stuff I've read here and at Kensington, I'll need to upgrade the firmware on a Win98 machine, but then I won't be able to use the camera on a Win98 machine again.

Logitech Clicksmart 310 Usb

Jfk-Sting
Hi, it's Sting. I've installed the webcamera above and there wasn't problem until I unplugged (it's a photo-camera too) and plugged to upload my photos to windows. When I've plugged the web in the usb, Win Xp found a Uknown device and not the previous driver (Usb Logitech Clicksmart 310).

Xerox do not provide and never will provide proper driver support for this printer apparently. I am having big arguments with them and am attempting to drum up lots of unhappy people to present to them.

Multi Channel Sound On SBLive!

tsonta101
Strange thing. . . my computer keeps changing the speaker settings in Control Panel/Sounds & Audio Devices/Advanced from Quadrophonic Speakers (see my specs below) to Stereo Desktop Speakers. This happens usually with Winamp 2.

Disable Autoinsert Notificantion

Greg S Trouw
OK, through the entire beta this has been, well rather annoying. How does one disable auto-insert notification and drive inventorying in Windows XP. In Windows 2000, there was an option to do this in the Computer Management Council under removable storage.

XP did not install ACPI?

Seducer
guys. . just wondering why XP did not show in device manager that ACPI installed? but instead MPS (Multi-Processor System). Yes my mobo is a multi-processor capable but I only use 1 CPU. And I think this is the cause why XP will not shut-off my box! My is a dual boot XP/98.
