Does the Audigy driver enable Soundfont 2.01 operators on the SBLive, or will the SBLive still be restricted to Soundfont 2.0?

I'm not familiar with the differences between these soundfont versions, so someone else will have to test that.

I forgot to post the instructions on how to check the SF support with Vienna Soundfont Studio:
Click Options, Preferences, Devices
The SF Support will be listed at the bottom

Nice, that's easy to test then.

Unfortunately, I no longer have a SBLive card in any of my retro builds, having switched them for various Audigy models. But maybe someone else who's using this guide with an active SBLive can check this.

PC#2: AthlonXP 2100+ / ECS K7VTA3 / Voodoo3 / Audigy2 / Vortex2
PC#3: Core 2 Duo E8600 / Foxconn P35AX-S / X800 / Audigy2 ZS
PC#4: i5-3570K / MSI Z77A-G43 / GTX 970 / X-Fi

Hi...greetings joseph, i'm trying to install my first retro pc to play some sierra and lucas arts game.
i have P1 166 Mhz , 80 ram , Chipset: VIA Apollo VPX, WIn96SE
Sb Live Ct4760 + Front panel
i'm completely newbie with all the settings, but gladly found your tutorial
Tried to follow your instructions and all drivers already installed
Creative audio @port 6400 irq 5
Try to play Fate of Atlantis from pure dos there was no sound at all
Did i do something wrong?
Please advise....thank you

looks like something has gone wrong, as Joseph_Joestar said there should only be one SB16 entry in device manager, i also have a CT4760, i use the Liveware 3.0 cd drivers, it might be worth giving it a try just to make sure your system is working as it should before trying alternative drivers.
