Make sure you install the Beta drivers and don't just use the update driver
mechanism to point to the driver folder.

You need to run through the Creative install and then use the Creative
configuration. This card can run different stuff through different ports
and it may not be the same as it was in XP.

I got the driver at
http://us.creative.com/support/downloads/

Choose Sound Blaster, X-Fi and Pro

I was able to install the driver they provided and then struggled through
their Line in/Line out app to figure out which was the right plug.
