Windows XP, Windows 2000

I finally got this driver from an oem cd, it was the only one that worked.
It's for SBlive cards that say MODEL:SB0220 on the upper right corner of the card. These cards are especially for OEM's and the drivers are not downloadable fron the creative website. I think that attitude stinks.
I hope this makes much people happy!
Have fun with it!
