Hi Ed,

Try downloading the driver again if it keeps locking up at the end stages.  Sometimes the files can be 
corrupted just enough to do that sort of thing by noise in the lines or whatever.  I've had to do that once or 
twice.

Cheers.

Are there any other devices that share the same irq the sblive uses?
If so, ensure that the Sblive has its own IRQ.

In my system, I have manually assigned the SBLive to IRQ 5.

Also, you must disable the PnP OS in your BIOS. The sblive driver depends
on the BIOS configuring the resources for the card. (assigning irq & io ports)
Plug & Play OS =YES   Change to =NO.


Another SBLive user reported recently:-
"I had to load the USB Drivers for Warp and the sb live works fine. 
It will be a problem with the IRQ sharing, please check
which other device shares the soundblaster IRQ."

Other Known problemsfrom the readme.txt file:-
- Crash in PMMERGE when installing the driver on a system that uses the Scitech
  display drivers. 
  Workaround: move the first minstall window (which asks you to select the sb
  driver) almost completely outside of the screen and press enter.

Otherwise you might subscribe to the SBLive egroups site
"sbliveos2ategroups dot com" and post your problem.

Hope this helps,
BobT.
