Are the MIDI wavesets (*.ecw) in your WINDOWS\SYSTEM directory?  If not then
that's your problem.  If you downloaded the drivers off of Creative's site
and didn't use them to upgrade an existing working driver then you don't
have the wavesets.  The Creative drivers don't include the wavesets.  If you
look in WINDOWS\SYSTEM and the ecw files are not there, you can get them at:

Of course if you DO have the .ecw files in the SYSTEM directory already,
none of the above applies and I can't help you.
