Asus Strix Raid DLX & Win11 - controller not working

[Spacey]

Hi Everyone!

I've got here my Asus Strix Raid DLX sound card - the one with the external controller. It's running smoothly under Win10 64bit with the 1.1.23 drivers - I can control everything with the controller: Volume, Switch between headphone and Speaker... perfect.

Now I tried to upgrade to Win11 but there it doesn't work anymore. Then I tried a fresh install with the latest Win11 image from Microsoft - vanilla - installed nothing else but the same 1.1.23 drivers but the controller doesn't work: No Volume Changing and no switching between headphones & speaker.

Any ideas what to do? Other hidden drivers available? Patches?

Thx!*

Hello!
Asus is currently offering a workaround: https://www.asus.com/support/FAQ/1049103

Hi ArmedAssault!
First at all thanks for your link. I've seen quite few things in my web search but not that article.

- I ensured that I have the correct Win11 version running 22H2 (nothing comes up when trying Win Update).
- I've got several programs - no direct named "Sonic Studio". When I follow the SymLink on my Desktop I'm pushed to "ASUSTeKcomputer.Inc > nhAsusStrix > UserInterface
There are 3 Apps:
nhAsusStrixSonicStudioSC
nsAsusStrixUILauncher
SonicRadar

The SymLink Icon on my Desktop leads to the UILauncher. First I set the compatibility mode just for that to Win7 - without success. Then I setup the compatibility mode for all these 3 to Win7 but without any success as well. Still the same: Can't use the controller. 🤷*♂️

The shortcut from the desktop leads to nhAsusStrixUILauncher.exe". Most likely, this process is meant.
ASUS has not released a working driver for Win 11 for more than a year. And I don’t think it will ever be released.

Yes... I tried that one but didn't work for me. I'll try the other Win-modes as well. Really sad that there are no Win11 drivers for such an expensive product. Well.... if there is no other solution then probably have to switch to a competitors product 😞

Asus müşterisini artık düşünmüyor. Bende artık onu düşünmeyeceğim.
