Asus Zonar D2X drivers?

GodAtum · 30 Dec 2017 at 15:34

My soundcard has suddenly stopped working. Tried re-installing the D2X-2.08(W10-PR) driver but it said it could not detect the card. The card is plugged in and powered with its lights on.

Try these http://maxedtech.com/asus-xonar-unified-drivers/
Hopefully your card hasn't copped it.

You could try reseating card to make sure contact is good, but like said it not being recognized isn't the best sign.

Though of course some update of Wintoys 10 could just as well break more things than fix anything.
So you could also try some system restore to previous point to see if it has any effect.

Dont think there's been any Windows updates since it last worked. I'll try reseating it.

Is the Unified driver safe? Looks like a hack.

The Unified drivers are fine.

Every time a card has failed to be recognized it has meant a dead card in my experience. I'll keep my fingers crossed for you though.

after reinstalling drivers many times i eventually got it to work!

Do yourself a favour, ditch it and get this.

Best thing I ever did, was tried of messing around with crappy sound card drivers!

It crossed my mind with my xonar D2X which fails to work in Wind 10, whether removing the card > boot into Windows > turn off > reinsert card > boot PC again whether that would make the damned thing find drivers.

W10 works fine for me
Using driver 8.1.8.1823 (I did do a lot of trial & error before I came across this though)

Thanx father-ted, I'll give that a try on mine when I next load Win10

Thank you, I'm not sure when its going too though, I've got one of these 12 months old https://www.overclockers.co.uk/giga...ddr5-pci-express-graphics-card-gx-19e-gi.html
That works fine in windows 7 but you think it'll accept the drivers for Win 10 No not at all will it, I've even downloaded the latest from Gigabyte it turns it nose up at those too :confused:
