Turn off EAX

Depends on your card. I have a Creative Sound Blaster Audigy Gamer. And my EAX control panel can be located on the Surround Mixer and/or the Drop down from the top of Windows

To find EAX:
Go to your computers *Control Panel*.
There should be a utility there that you can use to change your EAX settings.
Note: It may not say EAX anywhere, (including within the utility itself).

e.g. On the computer I have, the Control Panel the utility is named *Sound Effects Manager*, you go to the *Sound Effects* tab, and change a drop down menu named *Environment*. Note the lack of *EAX* in any of those names.

Any way words to look out for while searching are, EAX, Sound Effects, Environment, and Audio.
If you use win XP, you will likely have a utility named *Sounds and Audio Devises*, this is the generic audio control utility, and it probably wont help you. Skip it to begin with and if you cant find anything that works you can try it.

Other solutions, search for the answer on Google:
Find out what type of Audio Devise you have.
Go to the *Control Panel* and open *Sounds and Audio Devises*, go to the *Audio* tab.
You should see your Audio Devise listed in the Audio Playback section.
Search for your devise along with any of the following words, EAX, Sound Effects, Environment.

Best of luck...
