Creative Sound Drivers get messed up... Not first time..

[Kdar]

This **** happened to me not first time now.

Some times sound just stop working and when I try go to "Creative Audio Console".
It give me this ****... "Unable to find Audio device. Please make sure that your audio device is enabled and installed with it's driver. This application will be closed.

Or today..
I was playing Dark Messiah. And I changed Audio option in this game from 2 speakers to 5.1 (that what I have)

And then sound plays for few sec. and just stop working.

The only thing I can see I can do is reinstall those drivers.. (which takes like 20 min.. with all those re-boots)..

Any one know how to fix it other way? or why its happening to me?

I have Audigy 2 ZS

disable your regular sound card in the bios. then uninstall and reinstall
