I got new PC:

-ASUS P4P800 SE
-Windows XP

OnBoardSoundCard: Disable

Got problems with installing SoundBlaster Audigy 2zs. System is not even dedecting my SB =[

Drivers from creative.com (EAX4DRV_AUDIGY2_1_84_50.exe) and CD says:

"Setup could not detect any Sound Blaster Audigy 2 on your system.

Please ensure that your SB hardware is properly installed before running this Setup program.

Setup will now exit."

I tried to change my SB Audigy to another PCI slot, but that dosent work too.
Sometimes system finds new component, but its only "PCI Divce" and I cant update drivers for it etc.

well see if it is in your device manager! if its not in there either the PCI slot is broken, the card is broken or you didnt put it in right! push it deeper in.

if you can run program after you run CTCOMP.exe compatibility patch to your Audigy2 ZS installation and application disc file, it proved the sound card seller is absolutely sharpshooter!!! then you may ask seller to change for a new card. because, even if Audigy2 series card is not rightly inserted to pci slot, it is still able to recognized by windows.
p.s. to find files in "Guide: How to install Sounblaster Audigy 2ZS drivers on Live!/Audigy/Audigy 2" posted by [color=gold]BiGBrOWnPimpsta[/color].
