Some thing crazy happened after I installed the X-Fi soundcard. I disabled the onboard sound and install the sound card. When win 7 booted the windows generic drivers were installed. I tried out my music and all I had was the windows system sounds, when I tried to play an MP3 windows media player got a error and could not play the file. VLC would play it but no sound was heard. When I load the new 64 bit creative drivers I got no sound from anything. I finally went back to the onboard sound and pulled the card out. Has anyone experienced this problem? Thanks

Strange. I have 64 bit Pro and the Xi-Fi Titanium as well and had no such issue. What I did after loading Windows 7 was to disable the onboard sound, then install the drivers that came with the card (the CD). After that I downloaded the beta W7 drivers and software from Creative. If you have the original driver disk, give that a go first, regardless if it is for Vista. If that works, try installing the driver updates from Creative.

X-Fi Titanium is working fine on my system under Windows 7 Ultimate.

Do I need to take out the onboard drivers first? In device manager I see Nvidia high def audio in there 4 times and real tek high def in there once. Why nvidia is in there 4 time I don't know.
