After contacting the Creative Store via e-mail an being assured the SB X-Fi Xtreme Audio Sound Card worked with Windows 7 I ordered it, received it, and installed it. As a prior PC tech I have experience installing products. My primary need was for my microphone and speakers to work in Windows 7 as I had just upgraded from Windows XP. I got everything to work in Windows XP, but the microphone portion would not work in Windows 7.
After three weeks of trying everything and reading many forums I came to the conclusion that the microphone portion of card will not work in Windows 7.
I returned the card via a RMA and expect a full refund. I was also, disappointed that after three weeks I have not received a response from Creative's tech support. Also, Creative has no chat or voice tech support. I'm also disappointed that they farm out their purchasing to Amazon.
I have sence purchased a Diamone XTreem Sound Audio Card, installed it and it works fine. They have a chat and voice support. I will never purchase a Creative product again or recommend it to anyone.Get more detail about Creative Labs SB0790 PCI Sound Blaster X-Fi Xtreme Audio Sound Card.
