Don't do it... you lose a lot over the basic, "what-ever-windows-assigns." windows 7 has awesome stock sound drivers for Realtek. Updating the drivers you lose time alignment, and bitrate adjustment in exchange for a lot of really nice looking programs... not cool. It's why I had to dig out my old Creative card... BTW they fixed the SPDIF passthrough for windows 7.

"From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

S/PDIF specifies a Data Link Layer protocol and choice of Physical Layer specifications for carrying digital audio signals between devices and stereo components over either optical or electrical cable. The name stands for Sony/Philips Digital Interconnect Format (more commonly known as Sony Philips Digital InterFace), the two companies being the primary designers of the S/PDIF format. It is part of a larger collection of international standards known as IEC and defined by IEC 60958 (often referred to as AES/EBU), where it is known as IEC 60958 type II. S/PDIF is essentially a minor modification of the original AES/EBU standard for consumer use, providing small differences in the protocol and requiring less-expensive hardware."
