May need to get a new audio card.

Try reinstalling the drivers from creative.

I played around for hours trying to get my Audigy2-ZS to function in Win7 like it did in XP.
I'll keep it short.
Bought a new card with Win7 support.

^ That's like it ,Man!

try creative drivers first
looks like your using standard issue MS WDM drivers

You should not need a new card its easy for people to say get a new card when its not their money they are spending. Try the drivers from the creative site from my first post like king said you are using the WDM drivers which is what windows installs and usually do not function the same as the manufactures drivers do.

^+1
dont cost anything to try except 20 minutes of your time

just caught he is using same card as thread from above
BUT it is easy to go into safe mode and rollback and uninstall drivers
But what do I know
I have only been doing this for twenty years or so LOL

Sounds like that model card is a lost cause on Win7
though with this OP I would give it a shot with Creative
drivers first before buying new card
Though any excuse to upgrade is a good excuse
and the Asus card are nice for the money right now

hey thanks for the reply ive reinstalled different drivers from creative and install the audigy_supportpack_3_8 but it works on the default settings which is 16bit 48000Hz (DVD quality) =[ that the only one that works all the time without getting static, it says works best on 24bit tho :S

ive just put the settings to 24bit and put it on 48000hz. when i go on playback right click on speakers then levesl i unmute the mic its put really good. but when i go on venrilo or team speak 3 its sooo bad :/
