Phil, Check the Creative site for an upgrade, but I don't know anyone who has gotten Playcenter to work. I haven't put alot of time into figuring out why, but someone reported that their is a conflict between the Playcenter and software for CD-burners (got one?). However, I haven't heard of problems with Cakewalk, Acid etc. The SBLive is a great card, but also notoriously difficult to set up. Check for updated drivers and hardware conflicts. Some folks have reduced conflicts by removing the SB16 Emulation that is included to run programs in DOS emulation. Good Luck, Michael Phil wrote: > > I thought I posted this yesterday but it didnt show up.
