Ok so this is going to be a hard one. Back in the day when EAX was still a thing and XP64 was a thing too there was a glitch in the SB drivers that broke EXA/ DirectSound if you had 3.5gb or more ram. The glitch also affects XP32 bit with PAE enabled when using more then 3.5gb of ram.
The work around is to disable EAX/DirectSound or remove ram from the system.
There was a 3rd party driver out there that fixed this but I can't find it.
Here a thread about the drivers.
A driver made by Mr. Magic from planetamd64 seems to fix this bug. Dose anyone here have this driver ? or know who might as I can't find a copy anywhere.
Thanks.

I know there were two other drives that fixed it too but I don't recall the names or who made them, if you come by them let me know as I sure could use them. I'm moving back to my old setup that used XP has a host OS with a seamless Linux VM for web stuff. I a big retro gammer and dual boots are not my thing.

I know what you're talking about. I don't have it either. but I remember using Daniel K's driver to fix other issues, I don't remember off hand if that included the memory issue. danielkawakami.blogspot.com/2020/08/Vin |

However his fix requires a bios settings most newer motherboard lack, Memory hole something if I recall |

good WDM drivers for all EMU10K1 and EMU10K2-based soundcards manufactured by Creative Technology Ltd. and/or E-mu Systems Inc., including the SoundBlaster Live! series, the E-mu Audio Production Studio (APS) card, and the Audigy / Audigy2 series of card are the kX Poject drivers, although no standard EAX support but there are DSP EAX effects. |

When eax is used on ether xp64 with more then 3.5gb of ram or xp32 with more then 3.5gb of ram and PAE enabled the system will bsod if eax is used. Kx drivers don't fix that. If I recall the SB drivers can't do 36bit memory addressing witch is were the problem comes from. |
