Well, there *should* have been a control panel I guess this problem is caused by the fact that I use the Audigy 2 ZS drivers, of which the inf file is *exactly* the same as the Audigy 1 driver's inf file... I think I'll have to re-try the hack of the Audigy 2 ZS drivers to make them compatible with the Audigy 1 series then... But you're the first one who has reported this problem to me: I've had several positive confirmations... Untill the next update, please integrate the Audigy 1 driver yourself. By the way: is it only the control panel that shows this error, or don't you get ANY sound at all???
