    Stumped...Hope This Is The Right Section
    « on: April 01, 2010, 07:28:23 PM »
    I have an older PC. 2.6G Intel Pentium 4 processor and 2 G of ram. I'm dual booting XP Pro and Win 7 on 2 separate hard drives.
    I have an old Sound Blaster Live card that works great on XP. I couldn't get the drivers to work in 7 so I got the KX drivers.

    After some tinkering, I was able to get all six speakers working and sounding good in 7. Now, what I'm having a problem with.
    I play my X-box 360 through my 22 inch PC monitor, and had the sound routed through the SB card via RCA couplers to a 3.5 mm adapter. Worked great in XP.
    With the KX drivers on 7, I can't get any sound from the X-Box. I've Googled this(or Topekaed.... ;)) and can't seem to find the answer.

    I think it's a setting in the KX mixer, but I can't seem to figure it out. Any help is much appreciated.

      Just to update, I got it working. Apparently by default, the KX drivers have the line out on the sound card muted.

      I finally found the place in the settings to un-mute it and now have sound with the Xbox 360 in Win 7.

      I know this was kind of a wonky call for help, but a lot of folks viewed my issue, so thanks for taking a look! :)
      I've never used the KX drivers for sound, so, it's been a good learning experience.

      Anyway, all set!!. Thanks!
