Hercules Digifire 7.1

Hi,
I installed my new Vista Ultimate 64bit but now my soundcard, a Hercules
Digifire 7.1, does not work anymore.
I tried several things but nothing helps. I installed a driver from Hercules
for the 32bit Vista version but nothing happened.

Is there anything I can do? Can I select a supported driver from another
brand to make it work maybe?
Thanks for your help,

Chris V

Chris, you need 64 bit drivers for your soundcard. However, Hercules
doesn't have any 64 bit drivers for this soundcard as of yet. You need to
contact techsupport at Hercules and ask them if they are working on 64 bit
drivers. If not, you will have either use your onboard sound, or purchase
another brand of soundcard that does have 64 bit Vista driver support.

Find out if the manufacturer of the sound card has a driver for the 64 bit system

Peter, if you had read my reply to Chris you would know that there are no 64
bit drivers for this product. It pays to read the replies from others
before you post. Not a put down, just a heads up. ;0)

Thanks Wayne but your post was not there when I posted. At least it did not show for me. As always the more the merrier

Strange. Our posts were almost an hour apart. Mine was posted at 5:38 PM,
and yours was posted at 6:21 PM.

Looks like the Microsoft public servers are on the fritz again.

And you are correct. The more the merrier. I was really testing to see if
my posts were showing up at all as I get very few responses.

Probably because I have different newsgroups open on different computers and some like this one stayed open for over 1 1\2 hrs before I sent my answers.Happens occasionally when I get tied up in other groups before I answer and send on the open newsgroup
