| 173527 | 2003-09-07 03:28:00 | I recently bought a Sound Blaster Live! 5.1 and installed it in my system. The card works without a problem in Red Hat 8 and Windows XP. However, when I went to install it in Windows 98 SE, my system threw a fit. As soon as I booted into Windows 98, Norton Antivirus blue screened with a message about running low on system memory (impossible because I have 512MB of DDR266 and only 64 was being used by Windows 98). I install the drivers for the card, reboot, and the video drivers are corrupted. I reinstall them, reboot, and get a message about system.ini missing. I restore that from the sysbckup directory and restart. I then get a message about the Norton Antivirus (again) and I constantly get blue screens about VDD.VXD and the Creative drivers. Can someone help me with this? I thought that they had ironed out all the bugs with the SB Live! cards, but obviously not. Thanks, Wintertide PS. I'm running a Gigabyte GA7-VAX1394 board with F2 BIOS and a GeForce FX 5600, if that can help solve my problem. |

| 173528 | 2003-09-07 03:47:00 | odds are you have SB16 emulation installed. tick "allow lpt interupt" or diable the SB16 emulation. after that go check DMA is enabled for the hardrive/cd drives. | tweak'e (174) | ||
