Creative Audigy 2 ZS-Problems

I just bought Audigy 2 ZS Platinum Pro. Everything works fine except the remote control does not work. The IR light is lit up at my external one but it seems does not do anything. For example, I want to turn off the external by using my remote but does not work.

the power button on the remote doesn't turn off the external box, it shutsdown / powers down your pc ;)

I have a A2 ZS, no platnium or p pro drives. It is either drivers or a mobo problem you all have. PSU problems are bs, i am running 4 hdds, 2 optical drives, an ATI9600xt, and about ten fans off a 300 watt psu, the zs will draw about 18watts (apparently). Check you connections (with a torch, colours look so differant in proper light). I get what can only be said is THX sound out of my Logitech z5300's, you just gotta set it up properly.

That said, the only problem i am having is the bloody stupid master volume control is not only "tied" to the wave and cd-in volume controls, but at differant increment levels (one increment on the master = three on the other two levels). If anyone knows how to "un-tie" them email me please.

After spending all weekend trying to get my Audigy 2 ZS Platinum Pro to work with no success i am going to ditch it in favour of another brand.

None of the drivers install properly including their updates off the web. this thing is junk!

I should have listend to my friends and spent the extra dollars on a M-Audio in the first place

i can play music without any issues. When i start the audio calibration or when i play games it got hanged. When i do testing in the card, it shows failed for midi,directx wave except first one. mail me at jayakumar3.k@tcs.com
