A working, properly configured system would not issue that error
message.  Given that, why would you blame someone else (Creative) for
a problem that obviously on *your* end.

So here's a guy with a very popular system (Dell.  Millions sold.)
using the industry standard in sound cards.  I'm sure hundreds of
thousands have a working config as relates to their sound/microphone.
Yet a handful of unfortunate souls hose up their setup somehow and
whine on a public forum and now all of a sudden it's an industry-wide
problem. 

 I *really* have trouble understanding the mentality behind that sort
of attitude.  I guess it has something to do with the "victim-based"
society we live in.  Sad.
