Theres been several BIG promblems with Sound blaster software and drivers. The company wont be releasing XP drivers till XP is offical released. I can only suggest 2 things.

1. Get ride of the crap and go with a nice Turlte Beach, as I have done
2. Try some of the items that other user have dont to get it to work, or wait for Creative to release there drivers.

wierd. I have XP Pro corp with an SB Live MP3+ card and it works fine in XP. In fact, XP installed its default driver and it works fine. Try installing the win2k driver for the card, that might work

Well ya the drivers work fine, but if your a sound freak as I am you will notice sound quility has gone down hill. Not to mention the software creative supplied with the card has many conflicts with XP.
