Bracket for X-Fi Gamer

I've just bought a second hand X-Fi Gamer card and it has a low profile bracket installed. No use in my full tower case!? Does anyone know where I can obtain a standard height bracket to fit onto the card?

Thanks,
Dave

Probably best emailling creative, failing that you can always take the bracket off and use it that way.

Thanks for your reply.

I'm still waiting to hear back from Creative.
Would it be safe to use the card without a bracket, as regards dust getting in the gaps, looseness of connection, etc.

thanks,
Dave

Creative have said they don't have them, so I'm hoping that someone out there has got one they don't need.

I'd be willing to pay for it!

thanks,
Dave

No need for a bracket?

I believe a retail X-fi Extreme Gamer ships with a low profile bracket and a standard bracket, so I'm hoping that someone who has used the low profile bracket might be willing to sell me their superfluous standard profile bracket.
