bphlpt Posted January 7, 2022 Share Posted January 7, 2022 Go here - http://www.opendrivers.com/download/driver-83547.html The "Official Server 1" link didn't work for me, but go down to the bottom of the page and find the "Backup Server" link. That worked for me. Cheers and Regards 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be fair, you were actually very accurate and provided a lot of details in the question. More often than not similar questions go *like*: Hey guys, I remember having got from the internet a driver for my Xonar audio card that worked so much better in Vista than the one I have now. Any ideas on where I can find that driver? jaclaz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
winvispixp Posted January 7, 2022 Share Posted January 7, 2022 (edited) you could use the wayback machine to see if the download link was working some time ago (or even saved) Edited January 7, 2022 by winvispixp Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't have that exact card, but the driver also works with other Xonar series cards, just need to replace the device ID, a very good driver, indeed! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
