Soundblaster live! 5.1 CD

Russ · 04-04-2004, 15:32

I've just picked up a Soundblaster live! 5.1 soundcard second hand and without the CD. It works ok because XP found the drivers but I need the CD that comes with it, anyone know if I can get it from anywhere or can download it?

Look HERE for the stuff you need. check the one you want.
You can also get the full application pack from there.

I thought Creative never offered the full application CD for download for any of their cards, normally you have to purchase them directly (if you lose them)

I know that I have downloaded them from the site, cos I damaged my CD and needed to reinstall the app. ( was 12months ago tho.)

I have a CD if you want it Russ (PM/MSN me) - My card is now kput (jack port faulty!) so I don't use it...Anyone want a faulty card (works single channel)

I have too, the full download is around 25MB IIRC.

Perhaps it's just the Audigy cards that they don't offer full CD downloads of.

Thanks for that but it's not the drivers I need - it's the software that comes with it.

So if anyone who has the disk would like to send it, PM and we'll discuss

Yeah mate I guessed that, I have just asked around and it appears that they stopped giving the full app. away a while ago. They only have the update available now.

Will let you know if I find it.

Could you not get Tricky to ISO it up and MSN it to you?

I was gonna do that until i saw it was 533mb! (Wonders if NTL will let me go over bandwidth?) I'll see what a zipped version would be...

There isn't a cap on uploads so you should be fine, if you start it before bed it'll be all done by the morning
