This driver is compatible with MS-DOS 6.22 as well as the MS-DOS mode under Windows 95, Windows 98, and Windows 98SE . This driver is not for the Windows OS, it is a driver for MS-DOS 6.22 or MS-DOS mode only . Creative does not give away MS-DOS drivers (or any drivers) on their website for the Soundblaster Live 5.1 OEM PCI Soundcard model SB0100 . Creative requires you to to have the original driver CD that came with the soundcard, then you are required to install Windows 9x and then run the installation program on the installation CD, then you must choose a custom installation and then select MS-DOS drivers to be installed . This driver bundle eliminates that time consuming process . After the drivers in this driver bundle are loaded, the soundcard should be configured to function with these settings: Soundblaster address SB interface's base I/O address: 220 IRQ (Interrupt Request): 5 LowDMA Channel: 1 HighDMA channel: 5 MIDI Port MPU-401 UART interface’s base I/O address: 330 Joystick Port: 200 OPLPort: 388 If these default settings need to be changed, then you can use the sbeset.exe file to set whatever you need to set manually, with the exception of the OPLPort .
