    Posted: 03 September 2003 at 2:27pm

I'm trying to install a CT4751 Soundblaster card on my Win2k3 Enterprise Server machine. The creative labs tech support couldn't give me any information, and they don't have a driver for win2k3. They said that the machine wasn't "built" for multimedia. I say 'BS', why would microsoft install sound support if it you can't use it? Anyway, they suggested using microsoft's built in drivers, they didn't recieve any success. Has anyone successfully installed a sound card on win2k3, and if so, then how?

I did by using the drivers off the WinXP CD. Works like a charm.

it is only a matter of time... you have to wait until they provide you with the driver. it may takes a couple of months.

Until now I didn't get the driver for my ATI ALL in Wonder TV Tuner for Windows XP...

nope, windows has generic drivers for almost anything you can find. The sound card came with a set of drivers (none worked)

o, and another thing i forgot to mention, the phone number i had to call for Creative Lab's technical support was a non-800 number and over 1,000 miles away. It probably costed about 5 dollars by the time i got through.
