Using the latest drivers from creative labs website.
I boot up vista64 (4gig ram) and all I hear is static.

Any fixes for this? Or should I start using my Realtek onboard sound?

Have you tried removing one stick of RAM leaving you with 3GB?

No fix that I know of, but uninstalling the X-Fi driver in Device Manager
after the boot is completed and then searching for new devices and
reinstalling it usually works for me, but isn't always successful.

No problem here with the X-Fi and Vista Business x64.

Are you using the Speaker output or the SPDIF output as Default?

I have the exact same issue and have resorted to using the onboard sound of
my Asus motherboard - just a shame that still has the stuttering sound, but
at least that is better than an earful of static and noise !

I have the feeling this will need a BIOS update of some sort to solve - the
static starts almost as soon as the machine is turned on, certainly well
before any sound drivers are loaded

Any updated Vista BIOS of motherboard device drivers available for your
computer?

Vista Business x64, 4GB RAM here -- no problems (except flakey SPDIF output)
with the X-Fi.
