IT WORKS WITH WINDOWS 7!
It DOES work with Windows 7 (64 bit)! Please read the rest of my post because it may help you. I upgraded my OS from Vista to Windows 7 and needed a Windows 7 compatible sound card. I did some research and chose this card over the Extreme X-Fi. I installed the sound card and booted up my PC, without disabling the onboard audio. After I downloaded the drivers, it worked nicely for about 30 minutes. Afterwards, I was getting popping and crackling noises throughout my music. I disabled the onboard audio, in the BIOS, and then I removed the drivers and downloaded them again. (I did this several times.) Problem did not go away. I removed the drivers, again, and restarted my pc, allowing Windows 7 to apply the Microsoft HD audio device driver. The noise went away, and the music sounded pretty good, but I wanted the full functionality that I paid for.I contacted Creative tech support, and they were very helpful. I used some of their suggestions and added some of my own ideas. Here’s how I got the sound card to work properly:1.) I removed the sound card from my PC.2.) I went to Device Manager and uninstalled the sound card.3.) I went to Programs and uninstalled ALL software from Creative.4.) I went to my PC vendor’s website and downloaded the latest BIOS, drivers and firmware.5.) I ran Norton Utilities 15 to scan and fix any errors on my C drive and registry. (It removed about 1500 temp files from my repeated attempts to reinstall the sound card drivers.)6.) I installed the sound card into a different PCIe slot on my motherboard. (Even though Creative tech support, expressly, stated that I should not install the sound card in the PCIe slot right next to the video card, I ended up doing that because it was the only other slot available.)7.) I went to the BIOS and disabled the onboard audio.8.) I downloaded the drivers for the sound card from Creative’s website. DO NOT USE THE CD THAT CAME IN THE BOX.The sound card has been working, beautifully, for two weeks, now. I don’t know what combination of the steps that I took to fix the problem did the trick, but it’s better to be thorough. I am using some cheap speakers and headphones, but the sound is more nuanced than what I was getting from the Realtek HD onboard audio that I was using with Vista. Be careful because the volume is very loud! When you change modes or settings the volume can reset to something very high and blow out your eardrums!Overall, I highly recommend this product. Now, I just need to buy some better speakers and/or headphones so that I can get the full benefits of this sound card.

Does not work in Windows 7
I bought this sound card to replace the built-in Realtek audio on the motherboard that did not work with Windows 7 even after installing the latest drivers.Creative does not include documentation to tell users not to install the software on the CD that comes with the sound card for Windows 7. They tell you on their website after you discover the drivers on the CD have severe problems. The sound card produced strange oscillating sounds that increased in volume until it is unbearable and I had to shut down the computer.I downloaded the new software and drivers from the Creative site for Windows 7 32-bit. Un-installed the old software and drivers and installed the new ones. It worked and I was happy for 3 minutes. I played an MP3 track that was under 4 minutes and at around 3 minutes or so, there was a pop, buzz and then a continuous tone. Could not stop it until I shut down and restarted the computer. Some restarts were successful and others not. The tone came on once Windows 7 restarted. Another shutdown and the tone was gone. Played another MP3 track and same thing happens at around 3 minutes. The problem occurs repeatedly and I have given up.Contacted Creative product support via email and they told me to uninstall and download the new software and drivers. I had done that and don’t need them to tell me.I uninstalled the Creative drivers. Windows 7 used the Microsoft High Definition Audio Device driver which works to produce pretty good audio, however, it does not have Stereo Mix and I cannot record whatever is coming through the computer. Also Skype has problems with the HD Audio device driver. It does not always recognize that my headphones are plugged into the front Mic/Headset jacks and automatically mute the speakers and when it does, it won’t reset the audio to the speakers when I disconnect the headset.I purchased this sound card to use the Stereo Mix feature (record whatever you hear). I often record the audio part of educational programs so that I can listen to them several times to take notes and capture info that I missed the first time. For now it doesn’t work and Creative has no announcement for future drivers that would solve these problems.The built-in Realtek sound chip had similar problems with their drivers. Seems that software developers have not overcome the problems encountered with Windows 7 that has been released over a year and close to two years in the Beta version.Until these problems are resolved I can only rate this sound card one star.
