RE: Latest Creative Beta driver & the latest version of Skype

The problem is NOT ONLY with the latest version of Skype! With the current
beta driver from Creative for Audigy 2 Value card, I am also unable to make
calls out via Windows Live Messenger! So I have good reason to believe that
there is something wrong with the current beta driver(see above for the
version #) from Creative!

Would like to know if anyone else has had the problem of the current beta
driver for Audigy 2 Value not working with the latest version of Skype and
Windows Live Messenger!

Thanks!
