Sound Blaster Live 5.1 Digital SB0220 driver

I googled the crap out of every kind of driver and setup program that didn't work. It would crap out or say it worked but did not. Until, I decided to use bing and search! I figured different search engine should provide different articles. Low and behold it worked. I got other areas to look and after a few I found this one SBLive_SupportPack_1_5,exe. This one I simply ran the executable and poof a sound card that worked. Now it didn'r work perfectly it didn't seem to give me the front to back fade my speakers have on my other sound blaster, but it worked. so that was my solution hopes it helps somebody else. I am not sure where I downloaded it from It was a very slow download and free so I didn't complain to much. I also didn't play with it much. I had resolved to use the other SB card so it didn't matter to me anymore. If somebody else wants to play please post or send me an E-mail. to up date me. Thank win 7 forum some help some BS but it does seem to be a decent plac eto start.

Now does any body know why my Symantec_Endpoint_Protection_11_0_4000_MR4_32 wont work when it is supposed to???

You can find this one by searching on google "creative daniel k". The second one I found to work is kxdrv3550-x86-full, from KX ofcourse(google "KX project"). Just to be on the safe side I installed the Kx driver when I had 2GB of ram and after the install I added the rest of the ram. Now it works well with more then 2GB of ram. I'm not sure if Daniel K driver works if u add more ram after you install it. Again, don't know if this had any influence but I first had the daniel K driver installed and then I installed the KX driver without uninstalling daniel K driver .

So to make it simple this were my steps:
1. Removed RAM until I had left 2gb
2. Installed Daniel K driver (vers 1.5 google it)
3. Installed Kx driver (3550-x86 google it)
4. Added the rest of the RAM.
5. Soundcard works good with more the 2GB of RAM on WIN 7 x86

If you have kx driver and you don't get 5.1 sound go to control panel -> sounds -> chose "SPDIF/AC3 Output -> press Set as Default

I have been searching like crazy for a solution for this problem and had actually abandoned all hope, then i made one last attempt with this solution and i am happy to say my computer is now making perfect sounds in W7 32bit,

I have installed the KX Drivers version 3550 and works perfect on my
Windows 7 x64 with 4gb of ram
but my problem is my microphone, still not working :/

someone knows the solution ?

Hi ...

I had KX mixer installed earlier in windows 7 and the sound worked for a while after the sound disappeared and my microphone didnt wanted to work any more I uninstalled it because it seemed that I had to be einstein to understand all the stuff in the mixer and I dont seem to find any good and easy guides on google for it.

After that I installed Daniel K's driver and the sound worked but very bad.. I couldnt even hear the music that I played on youtube..

Now when I tried to install the "LiveDrvUni-Pack(ENG)" driver it say that it cant find any sound blaster cards on my system and it exit the setup.
So what are you doing that I dont when you are installing the driver?

I know that it is soundblaster live 5.1

I am soon thinking about going back to windows xp(x86) again if microsoft or creative doesnt create a driver that will work for the soundcard..
