Beta 7 of the WDM driver, 2/8/02

Several important fixes have been added to this version:

1. PAUSING playback in some programs caused a continuous repeating of a buffer of audio.

2. Enabling the Multichannel Interleave mode in the system page of the WaveCenter/PCI control panel could cause the machine to blue-screen at the next (and subsequent) reboots.

3. Random blue-screens on boot up.

4. Distortion on A 1:2 output could occur.

5. Simpler updates: updating the WaveCenter/PCI PCI (base) driver in Device Manager will automatically update the WDM driver as well.

6. Fixed AES, S/PDIF output channel-status bits...it\'s possible that some devices (d8b?) didn\'t like our S/PDIF signals for this reason.

7. \"Actual sample rate\" field (clock/device status page) didn\'t update correctly.

does this update work for Dakota as well?
If so, would like to know specifically how to install it. I\'m using XP & 2.5 on a removable drive for the moment so as not to hang up the work flow.
thanks
