http://live.pirillo.com/ – Meandyou can no longer control his bass and treble in Windows Vista, whereas he was able to control it in Windows XP.

The problem is probably related to a driver issue. If the sound card provider doesn’t fully support Vista, then you’re not going to have the same level of functionality that you had in Windows XP.

Microsoft, in Windows Vista, eliminated the Hardware Abstraction Layer. HAL allowed the direct sound data to pass through to the sound card, freeing up the CPU. So, the drivers that used to work no longer work, and the software that relied on HAL broke.

If you really miss treble and bass control you can:

  • Use Windows XP
  • Get speakers that support treble and bass control
  • Get a sound mixer that can support treble and bass
  • Or just wait until the manufacturer updates their drivers.

Do you have any suggestions?
