Soundstorm question

[Guest]

I have the A7N8X-E deluxe motherboard which came supplied with Soundstorm
software.
The sound works fine for my limited use but each time I double click on the
soundstorm icon I get an error box which says

'incorrect size returned during FXMANAGER_ALLOCATE'

The only option is to click OK which I do and the control box for the
soundstorm comes up normally and works as far as I can tell. My usual option
would be to re-install the software but I cannot find where it is on the CD.

1. Is it hidden in another driver and if so what would be the effect of
installing the older driver on the CD over the (presumably) newer driver on
my system?
2. Has anyone else heard of this error message?

Thanks in advance and Merry Christmas!!

Mike,
The Soundstorm Audio software is part of the nForce Unified Driver
Package (UDP) on the CD. The most up to date UDP is available at the
link below. This will update all the chipsets functions to include the
audio.

Does the result vary when you try different drivers?
Did you read the results from googling?
