[QUOTE=''Jim8989'']so then what should i do then??iam not sure fix it or buy XP and have problems solved![/QUOTE]Wait until better Vista drivers come out .. I know that's a lame response, but that's honestly all you can do for now. :(
I have the same card and sound works fine on Vista, but you should try the [url=http://connect.creativelabs.com/alchemy/default.aspx]Creative ALchemy Project[/url] since it's not working properly for you. Follow the directions on that site closely, because you're installing stuff on top of your existing driver as well as in each game directory that you're having problems with.
