Hi ya,

Urgently requesting info about the above subject hardware, their drivers and associated apps/software.

I know for the fact that DirectCD (bundled with my HP 9150i CD-Writer) is NOT supported in WinXP, but any info on updates etc. Also SB Live Value. Everything seems fine and have done the update by WinXP "Windows Update" and also SB Live ( http://www.soundblaster.com/support/winxp/) but I am assuming the Creative Launcher (thing on top of WIndow) is not supported/working in XP?

Also, need advice for Voodoo 3? What's should one do? Go with the drivers created by non-supported people/companies, like those featured on the ntcompatible.com website? If so what's the procedure? Uninstall first, just install on top or what??

Lastly, hibernation blue screens - I am assuming this is a "driver" issue? If so how does one find out or pin-point the cause? Any info or suggestions would be most appreciated!!!

Regards,

Aaron

About the CD burning progg... Use Nero 5.5 really great progg. No compability issues what so ever with XP. I have SB live and it works fine. I upgraded to the latest drivers but it worked before also... And you didnt say that you had a problem with it did you?

Presuming you want to use the hibernation feature, from what ive read so far on this subject, i would suggest that maybe you bios needs checking. First to ensure that it supports this feature and secondly that it is set correctly.

my 2cents worth!
