Hello all, just thought I would check to see if anyone had copies of the software/install disc that came with both the original SB Live! (CT4620) and the non-5.1 Platinum (CT4760) packages? Been looking around and haven't been able to see them on the Vogons drivers page or otherwise. There is one that claims to be for the 4760 in there but is for the Live! 1024 card when I open it up and look through the files.

Hello!
According to reviews of the original SBLive! (CT4620), at the time of release it came with these 3 CDs:

http://vogonsdrivers.com/getfile.php?fileid=1725
http://vogonsdrivers.com/getfile.php?fileid=1724

About CT4760 I am not sure. There are two discs at vogonsdrivers and many more at archive:

Which reviews did you see for the 4620 info?

Thanks for those links! I believe those may be the correct ones for the 4760. The package contained copies of Descent 3, NFS 4, and Thief as well which I already have. There is 1 more mystery disc that I have yet to identify. In the attached photo it would be the silver disc with the black bar along the top. Anyone know which disc this may be?

These two:
https://www.ixbt.com/multimedia/sblive!.html
https://www.anandtech.com/show/188
They were the earliest published (August and Septemper 1998). Both mention the 3 CDs and describe contents that match the images at vogonsdrivers.
