I'm a noob with this technical sort of stuff, but I was wondering if the audio processing stuff included in Vista is better or worse than what we had with XP.
Ok, since I am a noob, this is what I have gathered about XP's audio processing--- the k mixer is bad, and it has a degrading effect on the sound unless you decided to take steps to entirely bypass the k mixer. Correct me if I'm wrong about this. So I'm wondering, are there any improvements over XP's k mixer with what comes standard with Vista? |

Actually you are able to disable driver signing by displaying and selecting the appropriate item in the boot menu. In the 64Bit version of Vista.
