| When I try to install the drivers for my SB Live value the installation gets about half way through then the computer locks up. If I reboot the computer starts up ok but in device manager it says that windows stopped responding when attempting to start this device. I have tried the card in slots 1, 3, 5 & 6. With and without the bios thinking the operating system is Plug and Pray, with the slot having an IRQ reserved, with IRQ 5 reserved for a legacy device and all the above in various combinations. I have tried them all with a clean install of windows 98SE each time. I had an Adaptec 2940U2W scsi card in slot 2 and tried the onboard video output and also a Matrox Millenium 2 PCI card. I installed the 815 inf files after every windows istallation before the SB istallation Has anyone got anymore suggestions please

| Welcome! are you using Live!ware 2.0 or 3.0, and for which operating system? several have had problems with the Live! Value; I did too, here's what i did: 1) Install OS 2) Install Main Board drivers: Intel inf, ultraATA100, and security drivers. 3) shut down 4) insert SB Live! Value and install Live!ware 3.0 along w/ the updated drivers found at http://www.soundblaster.com 5) install any other devices you may have. }}no problems any more, whether it was under Windows 98 SE or Windows 2000 Professional SP-1 {{ Hope this helps.
