What is the differnce between the two? I have a soundblaster pro card & I had a hard disk crash. I do not have the drivers because I bought the card used & the technician did not give me the drivers when he installed them. I do have soundblaster 16-bit drivers for another computer that I have. Will these drivers work on the other computer with the soundblaster pro card? Someone told me soundblaster pro was downward compatible with soundblaster.
