Good evening .. I have in my PC sound card creative sound blaster 4.1 digital. ran very well with XP, now I installed Windows 7 and I can not find the drivers for it to work .. I wonder how I get them? I'm not very familiar with computers, so I apologize if I set my question wrong .. waiting for news Yours faithfully Marcello Pisano

On windows 7 you can use the Official kX Project
since Creative has chosen to drop support of long ago.

The CT4830 is a pretty old sound card (end-of-life in the early 2000s), and Creative no longer offers any updated drivers for it. If the XP drivers won't work with Windows 7, your only option is to purchase a new card that will.

HERE is the download location.

I found this information, copied it from the Vista Forums, but the post was copied from Creative's site .... so its 3rd hand information, at best!
=========================
(from the Creative forums - I just copied/pasted - jh)

For those of you with live 5.1 problems, here you go!! Worked for me!

From the post @ http://neosmart.net/blog/archives/104:

Creative Sound Blaster Live! Series
This applies to all Live! products, including OEM Dell, Gateway, HP, etc. editions, 24-bit, 5.1, and the rest. Vista 5308 may or may not find drivers on Windows Update, but even if it does, they will not support Digital Audio.

1. Grab the ngoHQ modded drivers from

http://www.ngohq.com/home.php?page=Files&a...e&dwn_id=20

2. Run the installer in XP compatibility mode.
3. Restart your computer.
4. In the audio properties in the Control Panel, to enable digital audio go to the Other tab and check digital output.
5. Play with the Format tab to get the audio quality to your liking.
6. You may need to restart to ensure that digital audio works after changing that option.




I'm not 100% sure if creative is going to be upset that I posted this, but since they have no plans to support the card in Vista, I can't see a big problem with it.

BTW, I tried the KX driver and I couldn't get it to work, so for anyone with that problem this should be your solution.
