Ok I cannot get sound under XP. And i'm about ready to throw in the towel and go back to 98 again.

I've tried different pci slots, ive tried different drivers (the ones that come included w/ XP, the ones on windows update, the new 2k drivers that were just recently released on sept 21 by creative) still no dice. the drivers load i get the sound icon but when i try to play anything, MIDI/WAV/CD the player either stays stuck at 0 Minutes or slowly moves with no sound at all.

The model of card is SB-Live Value (CT4830)

As always, Any help is much appreciated
