GP2 never seems to work with SoundBlaster Live! or SoundBlaster PCI-128 cards. The PCI-64 seems to be okay. Even when re-starting in MS-DOS mode they'll often just crash the GP2 sound set-up routine. Get an old ISA SoundBlaster 16 or AWE32 or 64, or a PCI-64 instead.

Are you running gp2 from within windows (in a dos box) or are you booting out to dos ? It sounds like it is not loading your sound card drivers. If you are booting out to dos, a line should be written to your c:\windows\dosstart.bat file during installation that says something like this : C:\PROGRA~1\CREATIVE\SBLIVE\DOSDRV\SBEINIT.COM If you are running gp2 from a dos box within windows the sound card drivers should already be loaded....Try a reinstall of gp2. I run gp2 in a dos box on my P500/V3/SBLive with no probs. Good luck, Phil
