Hi, Ning! =) (*Hello to you 2years ago*)

I was just working on this problem myself just now=)

Do Like This:

First go to download the basic drivers from Creative Labs:

http://files.americas.creative.com/manualdn/Drivers/Others/964/sbp2up.exe

Then extract those outside windows (goto: DOS)

copy the files to your system-folder.
C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM
(or where you have your driver-folder)

Type in the command prompt: EDIT (*And Press Enter*)

When the application "Edit" is started, then:

Press ALT+F

down-arrow to "open" (*And Press Enter*)

Then search for your CONFIG.SYS file from the device(boot-up directory: Floppy <A:\> or C:\ ).

When it's open edit this entry in the CONFIG.SYS:

DEVICE=C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM\CTSB2.SYS /UNIT=0 /BLASTER=A:220 I:5 D:1 H:5
DEVICE=C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM\CTMMSYS.SYS

(*And Save*)

NOTICE:
In dos/Win3.x your SB Live!-card will be named as the SB2( SoundBlaster 2.0 )
*I use the SoundBlaster Live! Value (but it's same driver)*

Ok, now go back to the directory and start the INSTALL.exe (following the Creative SoundBlaster 2 package and setup the drivers).
*If it dosn't detect your card, try to restart and then run INSTALL.EXE, and if that dosn't work either, buy or "steal" an older soundcard from your "own" older comp or the ones you can find in the junk or ask a local school or company if they have any old computer/soundcard they don't use anymore because of the modern computer age thingy*

I'm no master at English, but hope you can understand atleast what I spelled, hehe.

Hope it was to any help for all people with this trouble.

uh... how long ago was the original post? because it's probably still on top but if it isn't it's probably solved.
