Ensoniq Audiopci Es1370 Drivers For Mac
Archived from groups: alt.comp.hardware.homebuilt,alt.comp.hardware.pc-homebuilt Hi, I recently received a Creative Ensoniq AudioPCI (ES1371) soundcard from a friend. Unfortunately, the drivers are lost. I tried to dl from official Creative site, the most updated WDM drivers for win98se and win2k.
After installing it on both win versions, both win blows up with BSOD right after restart. The problem persistent and only goes away when I uninstall those drivers. I've managed to dl an older version driver for win98se still from the official site, and it's working fine now. The problem is I haven't found the win2k drivers which works, other than the default given by windows. Some functionalities of the card lies dormant on win2k, especially MIDI port and the ability of changing wavesets for the softsynth. Anybody still have an older version of win2k driver for this card? Archived from groups: alt.comp.hardware.homebuilt,alt.comp.hardware.pc-homebuilt In article, something@somewhere.com says.

TIA IIRC, Creative relabeled the Ensoniq 1371 as CT4810. Then they used a broad 'SBAUDIOSetupus.exe' along with a library file per OS, for example, 'sbapw2k.lib'.
That sbapw2k.lib is the actual driver, AFAIK, the rest is just an installer front-end and the mixer. You might actually prefer to only install the 'driver' part of the driver, not the mixer, to try to isolate where the whole package is BSOD'ing windows. Also if you aren't running a newer-than-original DirectX version you might try that as well, I'd try DX 8.1 first. Anyway, the sbapw.2k.lib is a zip file, disguised. If you rename it to sbapw2k.zip, you can unzip this actual driver to a folder and install it the traditional way, by browsing to it from Device Manager or when the card is detected. At least I think either method will work, it's been a while since I've dealt with one of those cards on win2k.
To find more driver versions you might try Googling for that 'sbapw2k.lib' and trying each version in turn. If the driver alone works then next try installing using the sbaudiosetupus.exe file, also available from various sources by searching. Basically I'm trying to outline a method of resolution instead of just linking a file because the odds are good that another version will do same thing, BSOD, unless you can narrow down what's causing it.

It gives the same problem as with the latest WDM drivers I dl from the official website. Well, I don't know what causes the problem, but with the latest WDM drivers, on win98se the BSOD screen reports 'exception 06', and on win2k 'BLAHIRQNOTLESSTHAN Blah'.

TIA This sound card is dependent on Microsoft Direct X! Make sure you have the latest version installed and you have to have the drivers for it. I have used this card on win98SE, so I know it will work with Win98. Never tried it with Win2K. Why people insist on using Win2K, I just do not understand.
Win2K is slow as molasses loading even rudimentary programs. However, good luck with your sound card. You might have better luck with a soundcard that says it is Win2K Compliant. The Card may work better with a specific update pack for win2k of which I do beleive there are 4 now.

I can't answer for everyone, but I can answer for myself: I 'insist' on using Win2k because my experience with it has been vastly different from yours. Specifically, I've never had any problems with Win2k's loading speed (I wouldn't consider it slow at all), and it's quite stable - I tend to only reboot my desktop machines once every other month or so.

Ensoniq Audiopci Es1370 Drivers For Mac
Some functionalities of the card lies dormant on win2kespecially MIDI port and the ability of changing wavesets for the softsynth. Anybody still have an older version of win2k driver for this card?
TIA I'll ask the stupid question here. Have you installed the card in the slot next to your AGP card?
This has been known to cause problems with some soundcards, and it would certainly be worth the short time required to try another slot. Regards Martin.

Regards Martin The IRQL not less than or equal is a hardware error that is often seen on Windows XP. It is hardware that is causing it.
Often it is bad memory that causes it. I dont know if the soundcard is even supported by Win2K or not. It may not be worth messing with that sound card. I thought Win2k was just about ready to be dropped from support by Microsoft, so I dont know if you can get any help from Microsoft or not. What Update pack do you have installed on that? Did you upgrade microsoft Direct X version? I am pretty sure I have the original driver disk for the card.
I found it and looked at it and it does not have Win2K Drivers on it. It has NT4 Drivers on it. So this card may not work with Win2K because it is too old. You may have to break down and purchase a newer card.

Nope, it's installed on the farthest possible PCI slot from the AGP slot. In my case, there are 3 other PCI slots between the soundcard and the AGP.
AFAIK, from experience, it's a rule to keep soundcards and VGA as far as possible, not only for some, but all. The IRQL not less than or equal is a hardware error that is often seen on Windows XP.

Did you upgrade microsoft Direct X version? I'm using SP3 and DX9.0b. Well, I think I'll have to live with the default win2k drivers. At least it doesn't give me any problems, yet.

On a system with lower memory throughput Win98 will seem faster, but otherwise Win2k is as fast, even a shade faster than XP. Heck, XP IS 2K, but with more piled on top. You might have better luck with a soundcard that says it is Win2K Compliant. The Card may work better with a specific update pack for win2k of which I do beleive there are 4 now. Speaking of updates, I wonder if Microsoft's driver could simply be zipped up into that.lib file, then when it comes time to install, the 'sbsetupus.exe' could be paired with the Microsoft driver, to get both the working driver and the Creative mixer & additional features.

Did you upgrade microsoft Direct X version? Wouldn't it be a really strong hint that it's supported when Creative has a driver for it????? Or, what do you consider 'supported' to mean, that a crippled MS driver comes with the OS?
I am pretty sure I have the original driver disk for the card. I found it and looked at it and it does not have Win2K Drivers on it. It has NT4 Drivers on it. So this card may not work with Win2K because it is too old. You may have to break down and purchase a newer card. Of course it didn't originally come with Win2K drivers for it.
Neither do video cards in half the systems running today, because the original CD was made before any product shipped, which is easily predating the end of the WIn2k driver development period.

At least it doesn't give me any problems, yet. As I recall, /some/ Nt4.0 sound drivers will work with Win2k, and there have been reports of the Ensoniq Audiopci driver working w/ it's wavetable and midi support. Maybe worth a try? Disclaimer;; I have an original ES1370, and I'd only had Win2k installed on my pc for a week before I hated it and wiped the hdd.:-).

It has NT4 Drivers on it. So this card may not work with Win2K because it is too old. You may have to break down and purchase a newer card. Win2k shipped with a driver that supports the Audiopci as a SB64pci. Which is it's other alias.
