EAX effects work under Vista with ALchemy software - available from Creative
downloads website for a year now. I use it with my X-Fi card: EAX and Vista play nicely together.

If Xonar drivers actually trick games into seeing EAX capable hardware that is not there then it is just matter of time before
someone sues ASUS. Myself I am rather tired of their rather thick
marketing claims about just anything. ASUS are so irritating and
will not see my money for long.

This is becoming interesting anyway. More here:

Unless Xonar cards have audigy or x-fi chips or the the one use on E-mu in it, EAX is not posible.

If it has a different processing system but they can't call it EAX.
If your into games surround is good enough but for die hard gamers Creative chips is the top rank due to EAX.

I just don't like creative terminal connection system on thier none pro cards, but thier cards are good.

So what can we say about the company who pioneered home pc audio system? making posible to do HTPC.
