Additional Notes

Manufacturers should support their OEM products better. At any rate, this elusive driver was taken directly from the Sound Blaster Live CD that came with a Dell system with the SB0200 card installed. This driver supports Windows 98SE, 2000, XP, and Windows NT 4.0.

The driver will likely work fine with Windows 98 & ME, though I haven't personally tested these configs.

Other information stamped on the CD - P/N # 1R967 Rev # A01-00

It's important to note that this is a Creative Labs CD, and not one pressed by Dell.

Hopefully this upload will solve some headaches...

"Hello All, I thought I had a defective sound card. I had tried to use the drivers, along with the patch from the Creative site with no luck. I downloaded and extracted this file. I hit the install icon, the drivers installed automatically and upon reboot we had sound...excellent!!!

Thanks much to driverguide and Brad Kozell!"

  • In Windows 8, swipe up from the bottom, or right-click anywhere on the desktop and choose "All Apps" -> swipe or scroll right and choose "Control Panel" (under Windows System section) -> Hardware and Sound -> Device Manager

  • In Windows 7, click Start -> Control Panel -> Hardware and Sound -> Device Manager

  • In Windows Vista, click Start -> Control Panel -> System and Maintenance -> Device Manager

  • In Windows XP, click Start -> Control Panel -> Performance and Maintenance -> System -> Hardware tab -> Device Manager button

How to Install a driver from Device Manager

  1. Locate the device and model that is having the issue and double-click on it to open the Properties dialog box.

  2. Select the Driver tab.

  3. Click the Update Driver button and follow the instructions.

In most cases, you will need to reboot your computer in order for the driver update to take effect.

Tech Tip: Driver downloads and updates come in a variety of file formats with different file extensions. For example, you may have downloaded an EXE, INF, ZIP, or SYS file. Each file type has a slighty different installation procedure to follow.
