Lost Drivers

Posted by Mike | Filed under Computers

Windows. Plaged by drivers issues, and my only real complaint about Windows XP. I recently reinstalled Windows XP x64 after formatting my program install partition and my system partition – only had a fresh install once in 3 years after my system/program drive went up in a literal puff of smoke. I went online to the Creative Labs website and attempted to download the driver for my antiquated, but very much still functional, web cam.

Of course, couldn’t find it because they seemingly removed the driver download from their website. However, being the creative geniuses they are (no pun intended) they actually put a copy of the installer into the install directory and I thankfully imaged my hard drive before formatting it, and all was saved. I have a Creative Webcam Live! and there were no 64 bit drivers to be found anywhere (did find 32 bit ones though).

I even have a copy of Driver Detective who also couldn’t find a copy of my driver for me to download. So if anyone else shares in my plight, feel free to download a copy from my server here.
