Oh dear lord, if you do a search you'll find 50X threads to this topic.

KX Audio Drivers [emu10k1]

That's my thread.

SoundBlaster Live! (EMU10K1) terrible sound?!

That's the FIRST google search for Sound Blaster Live Windows 7

Repeat: FIRST GOOGLE SEARCH.

[edit] Again, SBL was dropped after WinXP. Meaning ALL THE DRIVERS FOR THE EMU10K1 and EMU10K2 chipsets are BROKEN INTENTIONALLY. They want people to start using the XFI series cards. That is why you get the crackeling and massive bass problems.

KX Project drivers work just fine in Vista and 7

OMG! Don't people even read the preceding messages in the same thread?
Yes, SBLive series drivers was discontinued after XP, but KX Project still carries on.

Exactly, we need somebody to Pin a thread about how SBL was discontinued!!! WHY OH WHY every day there is at least 1 new thread about SBL not working.

Try this guys, worked for me...

Also had this problem, heres how I fixed it...
Driver used (SB24_VTDRV_LB_1_04_0090.exe) available from creative.
Install and when done go to Control panel, Manage audio devices.. This should display a sound window with devices listed, select SB live and in bottom left corner click configure. Should be pretty much self explanatory after that.

hello guys, can someone help me work my sound blaster live the model is SB0220 on my windows 7. i want to make it work but no matter drivers for win 7. the windows isnt digitally signing my soundcard. any help and suggestion are welcomed! hoping to get some reply from you guy

Found another official one Customer Support: Downloads However you must install this one in advised mode The game port seems to be installed, but I can't test it. Ignore the warnings while installing.
