Vortex of Sound. I have been going over their forum looking for help with WinXP Pro and a lose of sound in games. It turns out my problem is not completely related to Ace's High or AHV but with how WinXP handles the Bus Mastering for the cards.
Anyway this site is a real help for those of us sticking to the technology that is still better than any Creative stuff.
So if you need drivers for A3D based cards they have it and there are plently of people that are still helping to support those cards as much as possible.
