Is the card "banged out" (yellow exclamation points)
in Device manager? [Control Panel/System]

If so, click on Properties/Resources and check for conflicts. You may
need to move the card's IRQ assignment or move the card to a different
slot.

I have a way to dsable Windows' driver install if it comes to that--
it did for me. If Windows' .WDM drivers are installed, Creative's
driver does not install properly.
