Need Creative SB Live! value (WDM) driver for win7

hey,
? i just upgraded my PC to win7 and am looking for ideas to get my sound card (Creative SB li've! value (WDM) working again - is there an updated driver or?do i put another Win7 compatible Sound card?
thanks,
? ramesh

Re: Need Creative SB Li've! value (WDM) driver for win7] the driver and applications that exist for the package are very crippled. The card is very very old, even though I loved mine when I first got it. The headache and workarounds that you would have to use in order for that card to simply function are not worth your time.
I am not here to market, but in the last month I have been switching between my Dell OEM xtreme Music, my X-FI Titanium and my Fatality Gamer Pro Platinum. The last two are great cards and have worked for me at least, flawlessly in Vista and Windows 7. I admittedly use the Daniel K. 2.0 pack as a base for my software install of all three, but that coupled with the newest Creative issued driver have worked beatifully.
I picked up my Titanium off Ebay for $40.00. I bought my Dell OEM card for $30.00. I bought the I/O bay for the X-FI Fatality for $25. So your options are very open. That old li've will not accelerate sound well at all for Direct X based games, and you will be very disappointed. Again, all this is opinion, but I have been switching intensely between the above cards lately, and they are worth it. I do not have digital speakers, like the Logitech z-5500's. But my four year old pair of Logitech z-640's sound fantastic. I tried even with my onboard sound just for giggles. It was just that:? giggles.
Try this for a great price and fantastic performance.

The above link is not my auction but it took me about fi've seconds to find it.

    You cannot partition a TC disk.
    See pondini about mixing data and backups.. but remember this.. the TC has no way to back itself up and TM cannot backup files on the TC. Anything not backed up on the TC will be lost at some future point.

    I need a Ricoh SP 204SN printer driver for Mac OS X Mavericks. Can anyone help.

    This is a few years old, but it's the best I can do. I stopped using Windows many years ago.
    If you have specific questions, maybe I can answer, but remember I don't have access to any Windows newer than XP. I think setup will be similar, but I don't know if the Windows-side software will be compatible with W7 or W8.

  • Do i need to buy the same hard driver for my iMac or i can buy any hard driver 3.5?

    Do i need to buy the same hard driver for my iMac or i can buy any hard driver 3.5?

    You can buy any 3'5" SATA hard drive for the iMac. You can buy a hard drive at OWC.
    Note that Late 2009 and newer iMacs have the temperature sensor inside the hard drive, so it's important to get one with that sensor. In this case, I recommend you to take your computer to an Apple Store or reseller and get your hard disk replaced

    Hi:
    Try the XP driver.  You will probably have to manually install it as follows...
    http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareDownloadIndex?softwareitem=ob-46934-1&cc=us&dlc=en&lc=en&...
    Download and run the above file.  Close out of any error windows.
    Go to the device manager and click on the Multimedia Audio Controller needing drivers.
    Click on the driver tab.  Click on Update Driver.  Select the Browse my computer for driver software option and then at the bottom of that window, select the Let me pick from a list of device drivers on my computer.
    Click on Have Disk and browse to:  C:\SWSetup\sp34210\SMAXWDM\W2K_XP\smwdmCH6 and select the SoundMAX Integrated Digital Audio from the list and see if the driver installs.
    Then reboot.

  • GE60 0ND missing RS driver for Win7

    Hi,
    I'm performing a downgrade from Win8 to Win7. I've installed all the drivers except for the Radio Switch driver which is listed on the MSI site & supplied on the drivers dvd for Win8 only.
    Can someone upload/direct me to the correct driver please.
    The notebook is a GE60 0ND (ms-16GA) with bios v5.04. The MSI www has bios 10.E listed???

    Have found nothing with google & can't force the win8 driver...
    Thanks

    You don't need the Radio Switch driver for Win7 it is only needed for Win8: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/hardware/hh450832(v=vs.85).aspx
    That's why it is not offered.

  • I need to buy an external hard drive for my MacBook Air as it is almost full. Which one should I buy?

    Do I need to buy an Apple external Hard Drive for my MacBook Air?

    There is no such thing as an Apple hard drive, ...Apples doesnt make same.
    avoid western digital if possible. 
    Yes, having an external HD is necessary for data backups and keeping large media files for packing around etc.
    you need data redundancy.
    best options for the price, and high quality HD:
    Quality 1TB drives are $50 per TB on 3.5" or  $65 per TB on 2.5"
    Perfect 1TB for $68

    Most storage experts agree on the Hitachi 2.5"
    Hitachi is the winner in hard drive reliability survey:
    Hitachi manufacturers the safest and most reliable hard drives, according to the Storelab study. Of the hundreds of Hitachi hard drives received, not a single one had failed due to manufacturing or design errors. Adding the highest average lifespans and the best relationship between failures and market share, Hitachi can be regarded as the winner.

  • Help: I need Windows 8.1 32-bit Driver for my Officejet 4215

    I need driver for my Officejet 4215. I downloaded the HP Printer Install Wizard for Windows - hppiw.exe from http://support.hp.com/us-en/drivers/selfservice/HP-Officejet-4215-All-in-One-Printer-series/351105/model/351107?sku=Q5601A&ssfFlag=true#Z7_3054ICK0KGTE30AQO5O3KA30R1 with the expectation that it will help locate and install the appropriate driver online, but disappointed, as I was redirected to click on "update driver" after locating my printer in the device manager. Cant HP provide a link to the driver as they use to do before? This will save customer from unnecessary hassles. Up till now, the problem has not been solved!

    Due to the age of 4215 you will need to use the built-in driver in Windows 8.1

  • Need updated AMD Radeon HD 6630M driver for Windows7

    Hi,
    I am trying to update my new Macmini running Windows 7 64bit, with updated AMD Radeon HD 6630M drivers and Catalyst.
    Everything is working well, but I can't install AMD Catalyst Mobility, as the version from AMD says that my computer doesn't contain the proper graphics.
    Note: the reason I need the Catalyst is to adjust the image on my 55" LCD screen, as it is not streched to cover the entire screen.
    Any help??

    I used this driver package too, but I had after the installation of the AMD Drivers a Black Screen, and I could'nt read anything.
    Then I solve this problem! 
    And here are my steps:
    1. Download the driver package http://leshcatlabs.net/index.php/2012/11/catalyst-12-10-whql-unifl-for-amdintel-graphics/
    2. I have installed it and I made a desktop-icon for the amd Installer.
    3. Then I go to the Device Manager and then I clicked with the right-click on the ATi Radeon HD5650 and then I choose 
         "Update Driver Software...". After this then comes a windows with two messages. I have chosen the Second One                "Browse my computer for driver software". Then put in the location of the driver from the installed downloaded                  package. The Standard location is: C:\Drivers\Catalyst_12.10_WHQL_UnifL\Packages\Drivers\Display\W86A_INF
    4. Then click on "Next" and then comes a message that a driver wants to get installed, install it.
    5. After this then comes the "Black Screen". Now take your finger and press the Display Change Button: |O|
         Press the button 3 times and press Enter after this if you don't see your desktop do this step again.
    6. Then If you have a picture do step 5 again and now you must look very well because now the desktop is very dark and      you can't make the brightness better.
    7. After this close all windows but before you could maybe see that the driver for the ATi Graphic Card is successfully            installed. 
    8. Now click on the desktop-icon which called "Run Catalyst 12.10 WHQL UnifL Installer"
    9. Run this Installer and then install it and don't make an update. Now choose a "user defined" installation and check if
         all important things are would be installed (so far if you can read it).
    10. Click on Next and Installation begins. While or after the installation you get now your desktop with a correct 
            brightness. 
    I hope it solve your problems
