Hi there,

I own a PC pentium III 866 mhz - 512 mb RAM and it had installed a layla soundcard which performed extremely well with win95 using cubase 3.7...

Recently I got myself an audigy platinum EX and I had to install a newer Windows version and all I had at hand was Win98. Now I'm having such a hard time. Cubase refuses to recognize the soundcard's inputs, and it freezes the pc until I have to reboot the machine.

the question is... is there any kind of conflict between older cubase versions and audigy? something in the win98 installation? any kind of reatures which does not support any of those components?

Thanx in advance

Creative's drivers have sucked for quite a whille. I'd recommend you either go back to your old card, or find something else.

"Creative's drivers have sucked for quite a whille"

Slight Modification:

Creative has sucked for quite a whille. I'd recommend you either strap it onto your bike spokes so it makes a nifty sound when you're riding it, or go down to the bargin bin at Wally World and take your pick of the litter (anything will be an improvement; even AC'97).

Try updating to the latest drivers for the Audigy and installing the latest update for Cubase (I think it's revision 2).

If that doesn't work & you installed the Audigy with all the extra software from the install CD, I'd remove it all -Including the Audigy itself from device manager. Re-install it by restarting the PC and letting Win98 detect the card and give it the driver CD when prompted (so you get rid of any of those little gimicks Creative likes to install with the drivers) and then install the latest updates for the card from Creative. Also, try the Cubase forum:

There's a couple of posts which relate to Cubase users who have had problems with running Cubase through an Audigy.

Their speakers are pretty good, the one saving grace.
