I had a SB Live! and it worked fine just wanted to upgrade..

Went to My favorite store and found this X-Fi for 120 bucks so i got it and wow the difference is outstanding...

I noticed in this forum that there are alot of people that dont like or are not satified with this card..

This is how I installed it..
I went to add and remove and uninstalled the two creative components one was the drivers and the other was creative diag.
Then i shut my computer down and took out the SBLive! card and put the X-Fi card in, once i got the screw tight i pluged in the speakers ( in the manual its says to plug in the speakers after you install the drivers),, (I plug mine in before so when it comes up and wants to install the drivers it sees it as one unit not two..)
When the computer started it wanted to install drivers i clicked no or close then i inserted the disk and installed the drivers that way..

And Wow it worked really great!!!

No i didnt use driver cleaner..

There was one prob though when you peel off that little sticker that is color coated for your speakers some of the little circles stayed on the sticker and i had to manually remove them,, I'm glad i had my reading classes on.. lol
