Sound Blaster Cinema

I have a weird problem with this software, until I was with W8.1 everything was fine, software worked flawlessly but once I turned W10 it started to have troubles, freezing at start, etc.
I did some research on this common MSI GAMING MB owners problem after passing to W10 so I downloaded and installed both Realtek and Creative softwares version 8.1, and with this procedure it at least starts.
The odd thing is that sometimes when you click on program to modify settings it suddenly stops and freeze.
I noticed if you do it slowly one input per time (volume or bass mixing), alone it has more possibilities to be stable but if you try to adjust volume and bolt mixing effects it starts to freeze.
Considering I have an i7 is really a weird thing.
Does someone experimenting the same oddity?

Thanks

Download latest Win10 64bit from Microsoft and clean install it.

Reinstall os and all programs?
Not sure it's worth it because I'm actually running my actual OS for less than a year and everything seems running well except this software which sometimes works and sometimes not, but probably I just need to input 1 setting per time waiting the reloading time then doing next input.
It's a minor issue but odd so I wrote this post to know if someone actually experiments the same thing.

Well you don't have to 100% drive wipe your OS. You can simply reinstall the latest OS and it will push the previous OS + Apps to "C:\Windows.old"

What exact SoundBlaster card do you have?

Yes, wipe out every Driver Installer for the Motherboard via Control Panel > Programs and Features. Reboot as needed. Once all of those actually installed Driver packages are uninstalled, go download and install the very latest for each motherboard onboard device via MSI's website for your particular Motherboard Model.

If a newer BIOS exists, download the latest and update that as well.

Killer LAN still has memory leaks; so when you install this, download the driver for this and manually install DRIVER ONLY via Device Manager. DO NOT run the KillerLAN installer directly, which would install the KillerLAN Software, which is what actually has this memory leak issue.
