Windows Driver Signature:
When you install the Digital Audio System drivers, you will see a dialog box informing you either that the driver has not been certified by Windows Hardware Quality Labs (WHQL), or that the driver is signed by Creative Labs, Inc, and you will be asked if you would like to continue with the installation.
The Digital Audio System audio drivers are not certified by WHQL because the product does not support some of the features that the Microsoft Windows Logo Program requires, most notably Universal Audio Architecture (UAA) and Digital Rights Management (DRM).
Despite this, the Digital Audio System audio drivers have been rigorously tested using the same test procedures that a WHQL qualified driver requires, and it passes in all of the other important categories, including those that measure the relative stability of the driver. So, it is perfectly safe to install these drivers on your computer.
Minimum System Requirements:
-
Microsoft® Windows® XP SP2, Windows® XP x64 Edition, Microsoft® Windows Vista, Windows® Windows Vista x64, Microsoft® Windows 7, Microsoft® Windows 7 x64.
- E-MU® 0404 PCIe, 1212M PCIe or 1616M PCIe Digital Audio System.
