Sound card

Postby Gunny04 » Sat Jan 21, 2006 10:17 pm

Alrighty! 98SE up and running, but how do I start my ethernet card up in it? I have the Chipset drivers installed so it has drivers I just cant start it, now the reason for this post, Sound..... dont have it, I have a Creative soundblaster 5.1 live Sound card.... Works in XP but not in 98SE any ideas? I installed the drivers for it but nothing.... Cheers, Gunny

Looks like PCI Audio something is not working (yellow thing by it in System hardware) Soooo it looks like chipset drivers or mobo drivers.... but it asks for my CD when I install it (the 98SE cd) and the drivers for the chipset wont accept the windows 98SE disk is in the drive! Cheers, Gunny

EDIT: It detects the actual sound card drivers but NOT the PCI Sound card drivers? sounds like chipset or something to me...

Yea I'm guessing its something with my Chipset/mobo drivers...... and the compatibility of what I have in the computer, Running XP simple, 98 nah doesnt feel like it, if I run into a solution I'll let you know, Cheers, Gunny
