Hi,

A while ago i bought myself a creative dvd set from creative, the dxr3. In Windows NT land everything was fine, drivers were available (for download) and all was well. Now I moved over (for this machine anyway) to windows 2000 and maybe later XP, but to my surprise there's no driversupport on the creative website for downloads. You can buy!!! a mere 15 mb or so update, to get it up and running with 2000/XP.
This also is the case for my Live! Value i bought along with it. Are there ppl who want to share these drivers? The drivers I'm talking about are for the decoder card and the Liveware version for 2000/XP.
Any tips/hints etc. are welcome. I have the original install cd/floppy for installation under NT4.

cheers,

rob

Thanks,

After some searching I was giving up hope. Strangely this software is not to be found on the european site. Happy again....

Cheers,

rob

The dxr3 is a hollywood plus card from sigmadesign in disguise.

You should be able to use the driver for the Hollywood + card instead of creatives own. Creative has actually shipped sigmadesign reference drives with the Dxr3 for some time now.

So the place to look for drivers for Dxr3 is

Best of luck
