Aureal drivers work pretty well for me, except for X-Wing Alliance.
It crashes when I use 3D sound in that game. When I turn off 3D it
does run, but that's not why I bought the Mx300.

This is the only game where that happens. Anybody else experienced
this, or knows a way to fix it? (I do have the patch for X-Wing
Alliance)

With the diamond drivers I have no problems whatsoever in X-Wing
Alliance.
