You should check out the Creative FTP site (I'm pretty sure they have one).. Almost every hardware company has drivers lying around in case you lose your disks

YUP..... the awe cards are accessible by standard sb drivers included with windows 95..... the updates are at the creative site....... there's a link direct at the soundblaster page in the soundcards section...... but it's about the quality as the man above said........ they are ok for a couple of hundred.......
there are other options....... check the cards section........ the new turtle DAYTONA is the one he's on about..... I'll have to do a page for it in the new year...... looks very good if you just go for the card for audio output..... all the rest such as extra sounds via system ram doesnt seem to be a bonus.......well, not for studio..... but it looks interesting, cos its a PCI busmaster card... so you should get more tracks.....however, I cant say how it'll go with logic, or vst.....although cakewalk always seems to work with windows cards pretty efficiently.....anyway....it's VERY cheap..... I'd give that one a shot..... at that price, you can forget about the quality of the synth.... if stereo out is enuff for you it seems like a good buy...... but, you have to say that first, does your s/w support multiple cards.?....... if no, then give it a shot...... if yes..... then the starter Event Darla card is only like double the price.... 299..... which is very good for 8 out pci busmaster......

Erghh... Tell me if i'm wrong, but if you use Cubase or some other sequence program with some
syths and only use the synts audio output. Do you then really? need i good soundcard? Cant see
why.... More MIDI channels?
