Ive had a SBLive value for 3 years now - never
had any problems with it in any game but then I rarely bother with enabling EAX. Yes an Audigy is better but it costs more. "Kjell S." wrote in message ...

Email: e97_kjs AT e.kth.se Yep and even those will be harder to come, based on posts Ive seen in the gasp, shock awe Products.Sound_blaster_live NG on Creatives news sever at news.creative.com , hehe. Ppl seem to be finding supplies dwindling now that CL is putting out new version. Anyway Live was good for its day, troublesome but still good and the best surround analog out it can do is its 4 speaker. You can get much better now for about the same price.

Totally OT in this group. However, it's about the last sound card on Earth I
would buy. It's decent hardware, but Creative software and support are notoriously bad and have screwed up many a system with conflicts and resource-hogging. Check out the Turtle Beach Santa Cruz or Hercules Fortissimo series for better cards at similar prices. "Chris Roth" wrote in message able.rogers.com... Creative Labs Sound Blaster Live! Sound Card?

My Sound Blaster Live Value does great outputting to my stereo..but.
Don't turn the volume from sound card wide open or you will strain the card and get a scratchy sound from your speakers...Stan Bratboy wrote: "Kjell S." wrote in message ...
