I bought this card because I'd been having trouble with the onboard sound on my Asus A8N-SLI motherboard since upgrading to Windows 7 64-bit.

I bought the card from another online retailer and it wasn't packed very well. I suspect Amazon would have sent it in a box at least.

Steps I took:
Downloaded the most up to date driver for the SoundBlaster 5.1 VX from the Creative Website (driver dated July 2009).
Powered down the pc and installed the card in a white PCI slot.
Powered up the PC and installed the drivers followed by another restart.
Spent three hours trying to get the card working right.

First thing to note, having installed the card, Windows 7 recognised the new hardware on start-up and started searching for the best drivers on windows update. I cancelled this as I wanted the proper Creative drivers.
Went through the Creative driver set-up - no problems. Restarted the machine.

My set-up is a standard 2.0 speaker high-fi connected by mini-jack to the PC. I opened up my winamp player and put an mp3 on loop whilst I tried to work out the right settings. The closest I could get to having any sound was to have the Audio Channels set to Quadraphonic and sound coming through when I tested rear left and rear right. I could barely get any of my mp3 track through the speakers though - obviously this was being channelled through the (phantom) front left and front right. When setting to standard stereo setting, the level indicators where moving but there was 0% noise, even whilst pressing the test speaker button.

Unfortunately, I don't know exactly what triggered the working solution, but around three hours in I had disconnected the 2.

Rubbish, broke within a week, constant noise coming from it. Wouldn't buy! Waste of money, found better USB ones. Stay clear plus it fills your PC with a loaf of software crap.

I wasn't happy with the Realtek HD Audio that's onboard the Asus P8Z77-V LX motherboard. I've used Sound Blaster boards since the 90's and they've always been reliable (time will tell on this one), the audio quality is spot on and driver support it great. My system is Windows 7 Pro 64-Bit and I used the "Creative Sound Blaster 5.1 VX Driver 1.04.0090" drivers from the official site. Worked first time.. Very Happy Customer.

The packaging and docs are very minimal - maybe should indicate that it's OEM rather than a full boxed version?
