Well, I was hoping that I wouldn't have to repeat myself, but here goes.
Nope - you did not have to repeat yourself - but it does show people that you really have problems with the company that made the motherboard - not VIA....

Did you even read the whole post, Cylon?
It's not Just the motherboard I have had problems with, but also the VT6202 chip that is on my current board. the latest driver (which hasn't been updated in more than a YEAR) still doesn't work right, even on a clean installation. And VIA in its infinite wisdom decides to flat-out deny any form of support for the chip, in either technical form or drivers.
If this doesn't show an overall lack of respect towards supporting hardware (considering a simple chip that is there for only ONE function), I don't know what is.

You still seem to be missing the point. Once again, you should be blaming the motherboard manufacturer for doing a poor job in integrating the USB 2.0 chip into their PCB/BIOS, and/or MICROSOFT (since your profile shows you're running XP PRO).
From the VIA Page for the USB 2.0 drivers:
said by VIAARENA.COM:
USB 2.0 Drivers
WinXP - Due to licensing agreements, USB 2.0 drivers are not available for download. USB 2.0 drivers are supplied on CD with new mainboards. If you have misplaced the driver CD or have questions about the USB 2.0 driver, please contact your motherboard manufacturer or Microsoft.
It doesn't mean I don't sympathize with you for any or all of the problems - I do. But a sample of 2 does not make a statistically strong argument for VIA being the bane of civilized existence everywhere througout the galaxy - especially when many others here prefer VIA over some other solutions - and have tens or hundreds of successful builds to support their stance.
I'm sorry if I took this thread WAY off-topic. The direct question was about AUDIGY cards and VIA chipsets. There is no significant body of evidence that points to a pervasive problem between those specific items.
