Default [HELP]Drivers for Sound Blaster

I reformatted, now my audio card doesn't work (mainly because I lost Dell's CD and had to burn another one without the included drivers). It's a Creative SB Live! but I'm not getting support from Creative's site because it has reached its end of life.

Anyone know where I can find the drivers? I've tried alternative drivers but they didn't work.

What? I've been using it for ages. Does this mean I have to reformat again with Dell's CD? Damn.

download them then unzip the exe with winrar. Then install it with device manager.

Vanden: How do I get device manager to locate those drivers?
EDIT: Tried installing with the EXE

Go to Device Manager and go to 'Sound, video and game controllers'. Right click your Creative Sound Blaster and click 'Update Drivers'. When the box pops up, choose 'No, not this time' then choose 'Install from a list or specific location' then choose where you saved the drivers.

Never mind, I found the drivers on Dell's website, and they worked.
Weird. I wonder why Creative's ones didn't work...
