    Need Sound Blaster 5806 drivers

    I picked up a cheapie Sound Blaster OEM model 5806 from a computer show a-while ago and I'm trying to find the proper drivers for it. Creative Sound Blaster website and emailing them is no help at all for support. What is the correct driver for this OEM 5806 with a ES1373 chipset?
