Hmm, not sure if it was a one off but my speakers started hissing and popping randomly and music was unbearable. I had to restart in the end.

PB seems to have problems with Windows 7 as it's still a beta Evenbalance aren't supporting it. Is that likely to change once it becomes a RC opposed to Beta?

well i got in touch with them over it and they said no support till it was a final release to the public :mad:

You may need to "Import foreign Disk" from within Disk manager (Admin tools in control panel)

That did it thanks.

From disk manager I had to assign a drive letter

Probly not supposed to ask here.. so I'll say 'Email in Trust'.. but where can I get 7068 from??.. I've searched and can't seem to find it!...

Has anyone else noticed that if you drag a window to the top of the screen and release it'll maximise (it'll show a little blob and an outline of it maximising before you release the mouse button)? It also does this if you drag it to the left or right of the screen however it'll just maximise to half the screens width depending on which side. A bit hard to explain and I'm unsire if this has been noticed before or not; but it's new to me!

Did you try setting the clock back to normal? I'm pretty sure Vista behaves the same way if it's not activated and is still in it's countdown period.

Had this with my audigy 2 on bulid 7057, Works fine on build 7068 though, try some different drivers. Either from windows update or creative site

x64 W7 7057 X-Fi beta W7 drivers

Anyone else getting missing audio when in the car on GTA IV with the above setup? I can't hear Niko talk and I can't hear any mobile phone conversations in the car. All other scenarios, the audio is fine and it didn't happen when I was on Vista.
