Thanks

I don't think its up to windows. It's Creative's drivers that need to get compatible with Vista to be able to support EAX properly, so i wouldn't worry too much about that.

Glad to hear that.

I hope Creative don't Dordle around with the drivers then !

Hi,

Depending on the games,EAX might not work. If the games sounds use directsound for the audio, then EAX will NOT work since Microsoft disable directsound in Vista. The game uses OpenAL for audio, then EAX will work,since OpenAL will be support by Vista.
