Re: Game sound transmitting through mic

I had the EXACT same issue on Second Life..on both an XP and a VISTA box. I determined through trial and elimination it was the Creative Cards. They are not even CLOSE to what they once were..matter of fact they are pure shit now. I went back to onboard sound on both PCs and the re xmit stopped completely...Creative aint what it used to be...

Oh man, so my $250 sound card is "worth less" than my built in onboard sound?!

 It *could* just be a drivers issue. I personally decided after the dismal Vista support offered and all the excuses over at the Creative forums,plus the re xmit issue I aint doing creatives anymore

I doubt you'd notice any audio quality differences between the creative card and the onboard to boot. Creative just isn't worth it anymore - Their driver support is horrid.
