Creative Sound Blaster Audigy 2 Driver?


Recommended Posts

Posted

Hello.

Does anyone know if there exists any driver for the Creative Sound Blaster Audigy 2 for Windows 98SE? I would like to use the card for my old PC so I can get sound from it but I cannot find anything on Creatives website. This forum lists the Audigy 1 as compatible but it doesn't link a download location for drivers, could I use Audigy 1 drivers if they exist?

Thanks for any help!

I currently have an Audigy 2 ZS installed and this is the drivers I am using: SBA2_EAX4DRV_031031.exe and they are not too straightforward to install, you'll have to unpack and make windows look for them.

Could please post the hardware id and the exact model of the card ( if you don't find what you need there ) ?

My card is the standard Audigy 2 (not ZS or anything like that), the specific model number is SB0240. I'll look into the drivers that were posted, thanks!

EDIT:

Okay, I plugged in the card and it was (compared to the old crap card) detected by Windows at startup. I asked around and was told to use the drivers named "SBA2_EAX4DRV_031031.exe" and let the files extract and then manually adding the drivers. So I did and the drivers seemed to have installed successfully and the device showed up in device manager, but I got no sound. So I reinstalled Windows 98 (Just the OS, it seems to keep all my installed programs registered so I didn't have to reinstall drivers or programs at all) and after that the sound just worked!

Here's the driver files I used:
