Sound Card HELP!

brettbt · 06-07-2005, 12:37 AM

I have purchased a Sound Blaster Live 24-bit sound card recently. I have lost the CD with the drivers and was wodering if anyone knew where to get them. I have looked on the Creative Labs Site and it does not have the driver (so dont put that site

) anyway any help would be great. i also tried to google it but it gave me windows x64 which cant be run on my comp, gives me error from windows edition. THANKS GUYS!

i checked www.soundblaster.com, and there are no drivers for that sound card, so i guess your out of luck trying to get it online. But i would just try and use the Sound Blaster Live! or Live! 5.1 card drivers, who knows, they might work. (And just a hint, dont install them, extract the files from the executable and use the new hardware feature in windows to install the drivers).

Call up Creative and order a new CD, it will cost you some money most likely, plus shipping and handling, but I think that is all you can do now.

im thinking of just buying a pair of sennheiser pc155's since i need a mic+headphones for gaming and its probably cheaper in the long run since i won't be using my sound card much.

Go for it....I just got some Sennheiser 280 Pro headphones for my birthday, best headphones I have ever owned/heard. They, IMO, are the best in the word for headphones.
