FYI for Creative Soundblaster X-Fi series users...new driver release

[Tyndaleon]

I'd been using the new beta driver, but there's a new public release driver now finally I discovered this morning, as of March 14th, version 2.15.0006.  You can either run the Creative Software Autoupdate module included with your software if you have that installed and it will pick it up, or you can download it manually <a rel="nofollow" href="http://us.creative.com/support/downloads/" target="_blank">here.</a>Addendum:  This applies to both XP & Vista users.

the driver has fixed alot of issues i have had regarding vent, winamp and some other programs running while using creative alchemy and eq2, having more than 4gb ram

Yeah I forgot to mention, one of the main things about the driver is that it's supposed to work better with users who have 4GB or more memory.
