I've a problem in Windows 8:

"XA2 may not be available on your system.
Ensure that you have the latest DirectX runtimes installed, or use
DirectX / Waveout drivers instead. Error details: (code:0x80040154)
Unknown Error Code!"

In Windows 7 the emultator has worked perfectly!
next time, create your own thread.
tried setting your SPU2-x settings to dsound instead or Xaudio ?

Better yet, he should follow the message and get the latest DirectX runtime.

Edit: I'm not sure if Windows 8 comes with the DX 9.0c, the emulator works for me but then I had installed games which installed DX9 without need to downaload it again (even in that fresh new windows 8 install after the memory stick broke and did corrupt a lot of files). He should not have issues with XAudio, but...
I thought that Windows 8 came with the latest DirectX runtimes library... until I installed it.
You still need to run the DirectX end user installer and PCSX2 still does that when you install it via setup.exe.
