How I got my creative sound blaster live 5.1 to go


Recommended Posts

Hey,

After installing Vista and realising my sound card wouldn't work I started to grumble as this was the major problem for all of the Longhorn Alpha's for me as well then I also realised that creative drivers are just wrapped up in the installer so I used these steps to extract and install.

-Run the driver installation and allow it to extract to the point it says "Setup could not detect any Sound Blaster Audio card on your system" then don't click ok.

-Unhide hidden files and folders and then go to C:\Users\<Your User>\AppData\Local\Temp\CRF000\Audio\Drivers\

-Copy the folder WIN2K_XP to wherever e.g. Desktop

-Install as you would any manual driver (Go into device manager by right clicking Computer and hitting properties then under hardware tab)

Cheers
