Installation of sound driver in my PC windows-XP

According to Microsoft, Sound Blaster 1040 fully compatible with Win 7 and does not need any extra software. Use Windows 7 Update and check for updates, under optional as well.

Hope it helps.

To make this driver work on Windows 7 32 bit, download the official Dell driver from the link in rehnanahmed50's post. Then double click it to create he install directory. Finally go to the install directory and right click the .exe and select troubleshoot compatibly. Widows 7 will then run it as Windows XP sp2. Once installed, reboot and the sound and game port will work great.

the sb0410 is not and Audigy. It is a Sound Blaster Live!, and there is no driver support available for this card beyond windows XP.
