Hello, everyone! I am new to the forum. Last week I got a new computer with Windows 11. It seems Creative is not thinking about updating its drivers. I have been reading another thread about these cards and it seems mine -X-Fi Titanium, that is-, will have to end up either in my older computer or who knows where. I got an AMD A8-7650K Radeon R7, 10 Compute Core 4C+6G 3.30 GHz, 16,0 GB RAM with Windows Pro Education 22H2. Are there any chances for me? I'd more than gratified if I can go back to that lovely sound. I miss it a lot.

The card will work fine if you disable core isolation.

Oh, I'll have to research on how to do that. Thank you.

I can't. It says I need Administration priviledges although I am the administrator. I guess I am not computer savvy enough to do this.

Kernel isolation works using virtualization. You can try disabling virtualization in the BIOS.

Not working for me..
Blue screen with ha20x2k.sys when is ~70-80% installing driver.
Win10 22H2 Build 19045.4780 in test mode and disabled signature.
My patient X-Fi SB0460..

How I can fix this?
Need to replace with old ha20x2k file in your installer?

Which driver version shall I use?

Which driver version shall I use?

If you don't play old EAX games, then version 2.40.0019 is quite suitable.
