The better ASIO performance on Creative drivers?

I found that the Creative driver has better ASIO performance than kX does.
I tested these two drivers individually on my computer. It appeared that the most stable ASIO latency of kX driver was 5.33ms,then the cracking sound appeared if I set to 2.66ms.However,on the same computer,same programme,the Creative original ASIO driver worked quite fine on 2.8ms.it didn`t has any cracking sounds even I run 8 VST instruments and inserted 8 VST effects on each track..

Why? Is there any programming difference between Kx and Creative ASIO drivers?

My set up:
System:Windows XP pro,P4 1.7G,512MB DDR,40GB,Intel 845G motherboard,Audigy2 ZS -SB0350).
Software: Logic Platinum 5.5.1.
Drivers:kX Audio Driver 5.10.00.3537 and Creative original driver for Audigy2 ZS



BTW: are there any New Zealand kX user in this forum?

new zealand eh? im aus, not quite but close to ya, but as for ASIO performance… the drivers are far different and it also depends on certain aspects of your computer at variouse times, sometimes w/ kX 2.33 works fine, others i have to have 20, have you removed ALL aspects of creative drivers?

Can you give us a guide on a COMPLETE uninstall of Creative's drivers, as well as kX drivers, in case we change our audio interface?

EDIT: kX itself removes all drivers and registry entries when the uninstall option is run
