Just received a new Xonar AE sound card but all drivers I have tried (disc with the card and downloaded from their website) give the error "The digital signature of the Object did not verify" Doing a search this looks like Asus have not renewed the certificate, so windows no longer allows the driver to be installed, this makes the card useless.
Very annoying for a brand new card.
Do I return this for a refund and order a different card, or is there a solution?

Best to return.
Nothing you can do unless Asus actually starts supporting their product.

Also it actually uses USB sound chip through PCIe brigde chip.
So who knows what kind compatibility problems there will be in future.

I'd send it back. It's not that old a card, but it's no surprise to see poor support from Asus for their sound cards again.

I'd get a Creative card. Creative are in a better position than Asus when it comes to sound card support.
