If your using Win98SE, I *STRONGLY* suggest you DONT use the WDM drivers. I already had to re-install 98SE because of the WDM drivers. ;)

WDM drivers aren't supposed to work with an OS less than Win2k, because WDM is a new MS driver model (quite complicated to explain. if you want me to, just ask). So it's normal you can't find WDM drivers for win98, or that they don't work.

Actually, WDM drivers work with 98SE, not the orignal 98 though. 98SE introduced the WDM drivers, but Creative as always just sat around and made zero updates to thier drivers. As I said, the newer Live! 5.1 and Audigy sould have WDM drivers available. But the older Live! 4 channel cards are still stuck with VXD drivers.

And you can't just download the 5.1 WDM drivers and install it on your older Live! card. The drivers can recognize which card is installed. Hence, why theres hacked WDM drivers available for the 4 channel cards.

But all that doesn't matter to me, since I'm going to get a Terratec 6-Fire DMX 24/96 card. :)

Now if only Atomix would use the MAD mpeg decoder...

I played around for a while with MAD (for one of my own projects). It's not really very fast I think... Xaudio is also easier to use and to maintain (and to stay up-to-date).

And also the worst sounding encoder/decoder out there. It may be partly based on the mpg123(?) lib, but it still sucks. ;)

Then again, I think they've tried to clean up the decoder abit, so Xing may be the worst now, but its still not MAD quality, or for that matter even Fraunhofer quality, which is below Lame. ;)

I have bought a second sound card for resolve the problem. I had the same one with a SB1024 on w98se. Try it, there is the value/Sb1024 unofficial driver. Be care, beats skippings! So, try this too: Start/execute and reduce the material acceleration in Song. The problem should be resolved. See ya. Tell us what.

(type "creative driver unofficial" in google engine)

Erratum:

Start/execute and type DxDiag. In there, reduce the material acceleration in Song.

One 3d Card ask wdm driver for phones + headphones. With 2 cards (for example: SB Value/1024 for phones + PCI 128 for headphones), some wxd drivers run corretly, without beats skipping. So, with 2 sound cards and wxd driver for w98se, enjoyt it!

I prefer w98se and 2 sounds cards for run correctly Atomix 2.1 to w2000/wXP (that two are bigger than w98se). With that one, the scroll is not abrupt. In fact, the multi-boot is the best soluce for optimal performance, without many programs installed on w98se.

My config: p4 1.8A + 256 DDR + w98se with only Atomix runs and I never know bugs or problems either Atomix 2.x nor 1.x.

About the unofficial driver: these runs correctly!

In fact, delete all creative .wxd files and THEN install the unofficial. A friend has make that and all runs right
