Creative Sound Blaster Audigy SE 7.1 Sound Card

[Arclite]

I just got this card, after installing it, windows dont seem to detect the hardware. I disabled the on-board sound prior to new installation, so there is no problem there. Since the card was OEM i dont have any instructions.

Also i see a black power connector on the card, do i need to feed it power? If so, which cable do i need.

Thanks

Thanks, Havent tried it yet, kinda going to b a major problem since my 8800 is blocking it. Kinda beats the point of the drivers since my hardware is not detected. The cd which came with it doesnt even detect the sound card.

Well got it to work in the other PCI slot, kinda glad it worked but slightly worried about my other PCI slot. Anyway thanks guys.


Yes, Tim, Its a massive improvement over the standard on board sound. I never really understood the point of buying a sound card since the on board sound really did a good job but lately had much trouble with sound so had to buy a new card. So far im amazed at how much this new upgrade offers, its a bargain great hardware. Go for it!!!
