4. That leaves the original SB Live series of cards. There is not now and never will be any support for these cards from Creative, and I really wouldn't expect them too considering most of these cards are from the Windows 95/98 era. For anyone with one of these cards the only option you really have (applies to Vista as well) is yet another Daniel_K modified driver set,
Biggest problem with his card is that it is the oddball Dell version (Sound Blaster Live! 5.1 Digital (Dell)) that had its very own driver from Creative,

I just want to let the world know that this super old Sound Card from Creative called SB Live! model no. ct4780 is working just fine after downloading and installing the driver from the mirror above ....I upgraded this old work computer from XP to Windows 7 Ultimate (32-bit) ...I ran the driver as administrator
(always run install scripts as administrator...always ok)
and everything works just fine no compatibility box checking necessary
was necessary... monkeying with settings was necessary ....ok so hopefully that terminology will help this thread come up easier when the next guy searches for it because I had a bear of a time finding this driver .... again your old SB Live! card will work in WINDOWS 7 with this driver MODEL : CT4780 ....4000-5000 series
