You people really need to relax lol, this really isn't that big of a deal, I'm pretty sure (although not 100%) that no other sound card company out there has support for vista either,
and if creative doesn't want some guy copying their files, tweaking them, and then taking donations like it was his own work, so be it, because I'm sure if creative is ballsy enough to do this, then that means their own Vista drivers are probably right around the corner.

You missed something: The author of the drivers is publically claiming that Creative intentionally disabled features that could have been enabled, and that those features are advertised right on the box! The same boxes that say "VISTA READY"... wait, isn't there already a class action for misuse of those Vista stickers? lol

You should take the time to read before you post.

What's awesome is that it was so atrocious, it didn't build up from peer pressure; it exploded.... for example, the very first response to the OP was:
Quote:

My god, you guys got some balls on you, either that or you'r all bordeline mad.
He offered a service you guys cant/wont, and in so madde a lot og YOUR customers happy about their product again.
Now you wanna whipe him out and keep him silent by threatning about legal actions.
This is a beyond retarded, shame on you, shame on you.
