I never had any problems with the old drivers. Installed Liveware 3.0 last night and everything still works fine.

Yes still skipping video.

It works when I set the affinity (hope its the right word(german user)) to only one processor with the taskmanger

Drivers install fine, but I still get some sound problems in game unless I fiddle around with 3d acceleration / no 3d acceleration sound stuff in dxdiag. No improvement over the last drivers for me.

cool... i haven't installed them yet, but i must say that creative's servers were prepared this time. Last liveware release, the servers were so bogged down that i was lucky to get 10 k/s. This time though I was able to get all four files downloading at the same time at about 70 k/s each! (280 k/s total!) Hope they're at least a little better than the last set....

You guys having problems with video skipping, what motherboard and video are you using? I'm having the same problem, but think that it has to do more with the video drivers. This problem is mostly when playing DivX clips as well, and occassionally with MPEG. I think the more CPU-intensive the codec, the worse it is.

Actually I'm pretty sure it's not a video card driver related problem.. I've have a TNT2Ultra and have changed detonators since 3.xx. It's most likely tied to Sound drivers because if you bump down the sound acceleration in the sound and multimedia control panel, to basic(also disables EAX), the skipping goes away. anything higher and the skipping comes back.

I too am on a BP6. I can't figure out why Ronin still has a flawless machine. i guess it's our mobo as well..

Mr_Yellow: you're right... just tried bumping down the audio hardware acceleration and video plays great with no skipping! It'd be nice to be able to use full hardware acceleration though for audio....
