I got it to work with ME last time, and it worked fine from then, but since I went to XP I've forgotten how to get it to work under ME (or 98). Any chance this "someone" you know might be able to help us out? Mike. |

| 21948 | 2003-04-06 01:50:00 | How odd - just installed Win ME and used the ME Liveware 3 drviers and it worked straight off. But can't get it to work under 98SE. Perhaps I'll just stick with ME for a while (I prefer ME to 98SE anyway). I don't have a VIA chipset - I've got a Gateway Kadoka motherboard. Mike. |

| 21949 | 2003-04-06 02:34:00 | This "someone" I know is the computer technician at my school. I saw him installing the drivers for it, and it simply worked. I don't think he did anything fancy. I've got a SoundBlaster Live! card in my home computer running WinXP Home. As far as I know, it was installed when I bought the machine early last year, however I have done a reinstall before (XP and 98SE) and somehow it worked. Could you possibly have a faulty soundcard? It might pay to try it in someone elses computer, or a different PCI slot. |

| 21950 | 2003-04-06 02:39:00 | But I know mine isnt faulty, working fine in XP/2K/RedHat 8/Lycoris/Mandrake... just 98 wont play nice? | Chilling_Silence (9) | ||
| 21951 | 2003-04-06 02:58:00 | I suppose if it works with all those, then it shouldn't be faulty. To be honest... I don't actually have any other ideas to get it going. Sorry. I'm guessing that you've downloaded the drivers and tried them, as well as trying the CD. |

| 21952 | 2003-04-06 03:33:00 | Well, Ive actually lost my CD. I did however use the CD drivers on XP/2K, and downloaded drivers on XP/2K as well.. worked fine. Linux came with the drivers :-) Just 98 wont play nice! |
