I wanted to let you guys know about this. This is copied from a post on the Lynx forums from David Hoatson:

---

Lynx Studio Technology is proud to announce the availability of Version 2/WDM Driver Build 17 Release Candidate 2.* This driver includes several new features that require testing by a larger user group than just our internal testing labs.* As such we are making it available to our full user base to allow testing and comments before the final version is posted as a normal download from our web site.

The driver may be downloaded from V2Setup17RC2.exe.

The AES16e Firmware Update program has also been revised to fix an issue when running with a 64-bit operating system.* FWUpdate09a.exe is the new version of the updater.* Please note this updater will only work with Build 17 RC2 or higher of the driver and older versions of the AES16e Firmware Updater will no longer function with Build 17 RC2 or higher driver.

Key new features:
1.* Fixed issue with 64-bit driver and the AES16e Firmware Updater (FWUpdate) where a Bug Check would occur after verify on systems with more than 4GB of RAM.* Please note that this requires Build 9a (or higher) of the FWUpdate program to update the firmware on an AES16e with a 64-bit operating system.* Build 9 or older versions of the FWUpdate program will no longer function with this (or newer) versions of the driver.

2.* One-Step Installer/Uninstaller now removes the device from device manager upon uninstall.* This will cause the "New Device Wizard" to appear in both XP and Vista after uninstall (but not Windows 7 which no longer has the New Device Wizard).

3. Upon Uninstall, the One-Step Installer/Uninstaller no longer removes the OEM*.INF files related to LynxWDM.Inf or the previous installations of the driver from the DriverStore.* This was causing some users to have PnP errors when reinstalling the driver.

4. Fixed issue where AES16e Firmware Build 6.1 would cause the mixer outputs page to display items incorrectly.

5.* Removed Unique Inputs Names and Unique Output Names from ASIO Control Panel as those settings are no longer relevant.

Please let us know your success or failure with this new driver by making a forum post to this topic.* Thank you!
