Argh, so I bought a new ASUS Xonar Essence STX pci-e sound card so I could have Dolby Digital Live with my cheapo 5.1 surround sound system that only has one optical input (currently used by the tv out) and one coaxial digital in. Today it stopped working after I installed the drivers for my Creative E-MU Xmidi 1x1 saying windows cannot verify the digital signature. No matter how many times I tried reinstalling the drivers.
Here's what finally worked on Windows 7 x64:
Download the drivers from the website and extract them somewhere
Have the ASUS drivers installed like normal using setup.exe
Reboot if you needed to reinstall them
Open device manager, select the sound card (it should have a yellow ! by it)
Right click and choose uninstall
Check the box that say remove the driver as well
Reboot
Open device manager, select the sound card (unknown multimedia device or similar)
Right click and select update driver
Select browse my computer for driver software
Navigate to the location where you extracted the drivers and open WIN7\SoftwareDriver\driver
Continue installing the driver, if a box comes up asking to trust the developer check always trust
Reboot again for good measure and make sure it works.
