At those links, note the cards that they will not be supporting in Vista.

Gini, Did you get your microphone to work with Vista? I have Soundblaster
Live Value (Dell) and the sound works fine but I have no mike at all and have
tried everything to try to get it, including installing winXP drivers (didn't
work any better) and some modified drivers that also didn't get my mike
working. I'm not sure other inputs work, either, (such as Line in) as I
haven't tried it. The device control says only the speakers are working.

I experimented extensively with SoundBlaster Live! Value, and traded
email with Creative. Bottom line: That card will not be supported in
Vista - beyond basic function - and you're not likely to get the Game
Port or various utilities to work. See...

Has anyone tried installing the audigy beta drivers that Creative does have
on their web site for the Live card? I imagine they will not install, but
sometimes hardware is close enough to work with other drivers: I did it for
my printer and it worked.
