I recently ditched my X-Fi, since the driver CD is useless on Windows 11, while Creative want me to sell my soul to SatanGoogle in order to download newer drivers.

Can you explain that part?

The drivers from the CD do not install on Windows 11. Creative's website asks to solve a reCAPTCHA challenge (served by Google) before any drivers can be downloaded.

Daniel K's driver pack is better in my experience anyway, and no strings attached.

When I was 10 I convinced parents to have a person in the yellow pages come and do a few upgrades (including 16MB to 80MB RAM) and I asked for a zip drive. Got a stupid parallel port Syquest drive instead.

Don't think I have posted in this thread yet... but if I did it is probably the same thing I am listing now...

1. Matrox Mystique. Had it for a couple days and then took it back due to suckage.

2. Voodoo Rush. Was the upgrade from the Mystique.

Replace it with a Banshee and that was a lot better. Upgraded to. V3 and then a V5 layer on.
