Additional Notes

Like many, many people I was searching for the elusive Soundblaster Live! 5.1 OEM Drivers. After trying about 20 different drivers for my OEM card (which creative doesnt support!?!) I have found this driver which actually works for me, I hope it helps many frustrated people who was in the same boat as me.

"Thank you for this SB Creative Live 5.1 driver. It works fine for me. The official Creative Labs sucks!!! They simply said this sound card is out of support because it has been discontinued... And what about thousands and thousands of consumers who buy this product? I think they worth at least a bit of respect from Creative Labs, don't you?"

"It wouldn't work with XP x64. Didn't tried it with other versions of Windows, though. Later, I found a compatible beta driver from Creative site."

Step 2 - Install Your Driver

Once you have downloaded your new driver, you'll need to install it. In Windows, use a built-in utility called Device Manager, which allows you to see all of the devices recognized by your system, and the drivers associated with them.

How to Open Device Manager

  • In Windows 11, Windows 10 & Windows 8.1, right-click the Start menu and select Device Manager

  • In Windows 8, swipe up from the bottom, or right-click anywhere on the desktop and choose "All Apps" -> swipe or scroll right and choose "Control Panel" (under Windows System section) -> Hardware and Sound -> Device Manager

  • In Windows 7, click Start -> Control Panel -> Hardware and Sound -> Device Manager

How to Install a driver from Device Manager

  1. Locate the device and model that is having the issue and double-click on it to open the Properties dialog box.

  2. Select the Driver tab.

  3. Click the Update Driver button and follow the instructions.

In most cases, you will need to reboot your computer in order for the driver update to take effect.

Tech Tip: Driver downloads and updates come in a variety of file formats with different file extensions. For example, you may have downloaded an EXE, INF, ZIP, or SYS file. Each file type has a slighty different installation procedure to follow.
