lol....i got tired of waiting, but its on a seperate drive. i still have my original os on my default drive. the problems we are having is the same as when we all concerted to xp way back when, that is why i did a clean install on a seperate drive.

Without knowing the specific board that you are referring to I can only suggest that you google and see if anyone offers newer drivers. Often there will be someone with alternative drivers.

thx for the effort, but they dont have any supporting drivers for vista. they dont support this device anymore was hoping some one would've rewrote a driver.


thanks for trying

Hi, I had the same problem, couldn't find any vista drivers for my sound blaster 5.1 anywhere on the creative website. just when this was starting to get frustrating I noticed that one of the 13 updates that vista had automatically downloaded was a the driver for my sound blaster 5.1!!, so my advice would be to download all the microsoft updates for vista and you should be good to go. It's worth a shot it worked for me!!.

if microsoft offers the drive now it should work. but i have now move on to a different sound card. thx for the info.

Unfortunately I had the same problem. I have Sound Blaster 5.1 sound card. I bought the pc just 2 weeks ago and now the site says Creative no longer supports it. You can download a driver from Microsoft's site, but it supports only stereo. Not 5.1 channel!
