" When Creative publicly called ASUS out a few weeks ago over their fake EAX support, we had an idea to compare both true EAX along with the DS3D GX 2.0 engine from ASUS to see if real-world differences could be heard. So we picked up three Creative-recommend games and did just that. Though true EAX ultimately came out on top, the GX 2.0 performed so well, that Creative now has a true reason to become worried."

No biggy, X-FI is years old now and X-FI 2 just weeks ago got MS Certed.

Both companies are as bad as each other with support and customer service but still you end up using one or the other be it a Mobo or GPU or Soundcard.

Cheers helmutcheese. Very useful. After thinking about it for a while, I think I may be sticking with X-Fi until such time as 3GB becomes a performance bottleneck. Maybe by then Creative will have sorted out my XtremeMusic in Vista with 4GB anyway.

No rush...
 
If you still have issues with 4GB and Vista and X-FI, its down to your Mobo vendor to make a new Bios.

Asus did this but I had no issue on 4GB without that Bios or without the Drivers to fix the issue.
