SoundBlaster Creative AWE64 Gold 16-bit Audio (SB16 compatible) Driver Reviews

....install , now manually reboot,next problem is the gameport driver will install,but not appear in system properties!,this conflict is caused by the creative sb16 pnp that windows installs in your system properties in the device manager,just disable it ,do not remove it...it is conflicting with the gameport,the pnp is designed for dos & win 3.1 that has no pnp,you will need your win95 cd to install the creative gameport driver,the microsft gameport driver will not work,remove it from system properties if its there its disabled anyways....go into add new hardware & choose the soundcard options choose creative ,inside is all the new sb16 soundcard drivers & awe that this program created,choose the creative gameport ,select ok,then you will need your win95cd ,it will install,reboot manually,then go into joystick properties & choose your joypad,it should sense it saying ok,check calibration ...done, one more thing thats very important! ALL THIS WILL ONLY WORK WITHOUT THE 3.1 SB16 DRIVERS INSTALLED ,IF YOU ARE INSTALLING WITH THE WIN95 UPGRADE OVER WIN3.1 AND SB16 DRIVER FOR WIN3.1 IS ALREADY INSTALLED...CONFLICT CITY,FORMAT & REINSTALL WITHOUT THE SB16 3.1 DRIVER & all will work,just remove the directx uncertified sb16 driver that windows95 cd installs after a clean install in system properties & then INSTALL this driver that IS directx certified."

ally use the search funtion to find a few of teh files that it needs to finish the install !OMG! but if you don't know how to do so they you really shouldn't own-operate a computer.
