Graphic equalizer in Vista?

I am using Vista 64 and would like to adjust the sound of my games. Does Vista have a graphic equalizer? I am using the optical out from my motherboard to a Logitec Z-5500 speaker system. The sound through my headphones is what I would really like to adjust.

I know there is a graphic equalizer in Windows Media Player but I do not think it is used when playing games or listening to music, other than music that has already been loaded into Media Player. I prefer iTunes for listening to music on my computer...which does have an equalizer.

Thanks

Yeah, I think I remember there being one in Windows XP or maybe an older version of Windows. Maybe this is one of Microsoft's ploys to get people to use Windows Media Player?

You can also get the latest version at http://www.realtek.com.tw/downloads/

I have Realtek HD Audio Manager. It got an Equalizer but its not graphic. Personally, I use SRS Audio Sandbox.

Realtek drivers are good. I get a little bug sometimes but not really important.
