I am using a 6700K on an Asus Z170-A, with latest updates applied (as of today, anyways). The old forums were possibly getting somewhere with troubleshooting but that got shut down.

When the card does work though - it sounds amazing until it goes back to poppin and lockin again. Onboard sound has none of these issues, just doesn't sound nearly as good. I found a package on the web with version '6.0.102.0051' drivers which doesn't fix any of these issues either. Latest official drivers on Creative's site still shows '3 Mar 17' which has all of these issues. This is a widely known issue and still not fixed.ĭisabling windows update and using latest creative drivers doesn't help, using an older driver causes it to pop even more often. Latest windows update causes front panel to not work at all.Once a while, go completely distorted until a reboot.If I scroll it up and down quickly, it will amusingly go up and down slowly over 3-4 seconds.

It didn't when I was trying to find out answers around a year ago.
