This is a very good sound card, and I give it a perfect 5, if it's drivers worked fully with Vista. Even though the Vista is at fault, not the soundcard, it would be nice to know that Creative were trying to find a way around the problem. All in all, a very impressive card, drivers worked with 64bit Vista, but still no HAL support for the stereo mixer.
