This package contains drivers, mixer, and diagnostics. It functions as a stand-alone installation or as an update to an existing installation.

Okay, here's the thing, my old SoundBlaster PCI 512 card finaly died. I've since picked up a used SoundBlaster Live, unfortunatly it didn't come with a drivers CD. I didn't worry about it to much thinking that Creative would have the nessisary drivers on their website.

They don't, atleast not for Windows98. I would like to have a full CD ISO, expecialy for DOS SoundBlaster 16 emulation. I've downloaded the DOS driver set from DriverGuide (DOSDRV.zip) and the SBLiveDosDrv.zip file found around the net, without satisfactory results; ie. I've only been able to get mono sound out of it. So here's the thing, does anyone have a SoundBlaster Live!

Driver CD laying about? I've already tried a SoundBlaster Live!

5.1 CD without any luck; all I get is alot of buzzing. I'm going to guess that the Live 24-Bit, Platinum, and Gamer, would be equaly as useless, I just need a plain, old, original Live!

As you can see, they don't offer a full download anymore, just the update. The update Creative currently offers dosen't even detect the card correctly, it wants to assign Media drivers to the game port for some odd reason. That's why I am looking for a copy of the original CD. It should have the 'Legacy Device' drivers as well as well as the windows drivers (which I have working already). Well, you are lucky!

I DO happen to have that CD! It came with my SoundBlaster Live! LS (read: SoundBlaster Live! 5.1 Digital). Torrent. The CD reads: SoundBlaster Live! [EDIT]I need to read the posts better before I type useless stuff[/EDIT] It's a real shame that those morons @ Creative don't post any full drivers.But their 'reason' is, that the software is CARDware! So only with a original Creative soundcard you may have the software (and that's why those drivers on the site are only updates.) Well, it's 470MB.I can post it for a while on my site.Or if you have another option, please tell.
