I have purchased this on my laptop but i am not sure why on the Audio, its called High Definition Audio Device instead of X-Fi Soundblaster.

It's just software. Find it in Start > Program Files > Creative.
I was confused, too - I thought it would replace the default driver for the built-in audio...but apparently it's just software that runs on top of your audio card/driver. -

well id give out the torrent link for the program but im sure the mods will consider it piracy and ban me for it. Every time i post a torrent to a program that normally costs money i get banned. Just do a little work searching and ull find paying 20 for this is pointless

I don't know you guys but the sound of the M14X is absolutely Amazing
and once you tweak the equalizer to rock and the mode to gaming is the best sound system i ever experience in a laptop even a macbook pro is nothing compared to this -

What functionality does the software add, and is there an open source equiv?

I would say the actual audio chip and audio controller (IDT/Realtek) has more of an effect on sound than 3rd party audio enhancing software. What makes the most difference is the quality of your headphones/speakers that you use.
My suggestion is you'll be fine without the X-Fi software.
