Does anyone here have the Sound Blaster Audigy Installation CD?

[RMSistight]

If possible can anyone send me an image to burn onto CD of the installation CD? I really need it cause I lost mine. Thanks.

Can't you just download newer drivers off the Creative website anyway?

IIRC I don't think you can - you need the original CD to install latest drivers, thats why I'd never buy another Creative product again.

Thats odd because I just downloaded the drivers for my Audigy 2 off of Creatives website and they installed without a problem (I don't have the original installation cd either).

Oh right...perhaps they've changed their policies though I know that you never used to be able to install driver updates without first installing the original driver CD.

I dont remember that as ever being the policy... And ive been a long time Creative user.

Help the OP out by linking him then, because i just looked on their site, & I cannot see anything except updates & patches.

You only need the CD if you're installing it for the first time.

I'd help you out, but my burners can't break the copy protection. Tried it on 3 different drives

All of Creative's driver updates and software updates come in self-extracting archives. If it says, when you open it, that there must be existing drivers/software for it to update them, open the archive in an archive program (winrar, 7-zip). Locate the setup file that will allow you to install the software/driver without the existing software/driver.

Well I don't have the installation cd for my Audigy 2 either so I tried installing the EAX console without it and it failed. There does seem to be a problem here...Any ideas?
