    Hi,

    I've just installed a sound blaster 4.1 digital on my machine (oldish i know) and for some truly remarkable reason every time i go to the creative site and go to download the drivers an ASP error message appears, every where i look i can't seem to be able to find the windows 2000 drivers and the OS doesn't auto detect what it is. Does anyone know where i could find the drivers/software?

    Thanks, and appologies if i've posted this in the wrong board.

    Al

    /edit
    download.com doesn't seem to have 2k drivers...

    i'm assuming it's a soundblaster live! that you have?
    try going to soundblaster.com

    I tried both and neither worked, all i keep getting is a screen saying "internal server error" with a URL of http://uk.europe.creative.com/support/drivers/cookie.asp

    maybe it's the firewall or my IE security settings (because none of the other products driver pages will appear either) or maybe it's a temp error on their actual server. I even tried to go to a different regional site to see could i get it there and wouldn't ya know, it's not there! (well maybe it's named differently from region to region?)

    Anyway, could someone please try the URL above and see what comes up, at least that way i'll know if it's my machine or their server.

    Thanks

    OK, by selecting Internal | SB Live Digital 4.1 | Windows 2000, I got a list of downloads.

    HTH

    It is what it's.

    Hey thanks oneweb, i downloaded them and it works fine, i really appreciate it. The only trouble im having now is the fact that i aint got the software CD, does anyone know if creative provide replacements? i wanted to activate/install the EAX functionality on the card.

    I downloaded some generic creative player software for it.

    Thanks
