iMac sound quality issue with Windows?

[sng08]

Hi all,

I recently got my new iMac 27" i7 and I have successfully installed Windows XP via Boot Camp. I have everything up and running except I believe there's a sound quality issue. When I play music on the Mac OS side it seems very clear and precise. However, when music is played via Windows the sound seems to have deteriorated, almost hollow or more muffled?

Has anybody else experienced this? Is this normal for Windows or this a driver issue?

Many thanks in advance!

It may not be "normal" but it is a general issue with the Boot Camp drivers. See for example: https://forums.macrumors.com/threads/720941/ .

There may be alternative drivers for your Mac from the audio chip's OEM.
