Eyesonly_dk Posted June 25, 2006 Share Posted June 25, 2006 As title my xp can't find my soundcard.It's a Creative SB Live! 5,1 PCI soundcard, but Xp just can't find out that it is there.. When I boot up my computer it says that it have found new hardware but it can't identify it, it is just called "Multimedia audio controller"Anybody have any ideas or have experienced the same problem.Thank youPeter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
serg33 Posted June 25, 2006 Share Posted June 25, 2006 sounds like you need drivers. Did any software come with it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eyesonly_dk Posted June 25, 2006 Author Share Posted June 25, 2006 (edited) I'm am afraid the guy that had it before me has thrown them away somehow...I have tryed to download a driver but it can not install before Xp recognizes the card.

allen2 Posted June 25, 2006 Share Posted June 25, 2006 First try to identify if you card is really a sb live 5.1: here.Then choose the right driver. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ripken204 Posted June 25, 2006 Share Posted June 25, 2006 dont pay attention to the popup, just leave it alone. go into device manager and manually install the driver for teh "Multimedia audio controller". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bledd Posted June 25, 2006 Share Posted June 25, 2006 should should be a code on the card, i think it begins with C have a look, and google that, then get the driver for it from creative (web update they're called i think)run the installer and hey presto Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LLXX Posted June 26, 2006 Share Posted June 26, 2006 dont pay attention to the popup, just leave it alone. go into device manager and manually install the driver for teh "Multimedia audio controller".Or remove the Multimedia Audio Controller first, by right-click -> Remove.
