SB Live and W2K Retail

This is a discussion about SB Live and W2K Retail in the Windows Hardware category; I may have missed such discussion previously due to my workload - (not much time for surfing) Does the retail edition on Win2K support the SB Live natively without needing to disable PCI Steering and do the other funky stuff? - I don't suffer from insanity.

My SBLive works great with win2k-retail and the default drivers without any goofy tweaking whatsoever. I havn't installed Liveware yet so I don't know how that does.

If you have experiences with both in-built and Liveware, I would love to know.

I tried both the built-in and the Liveware drivers and I learned to stick to the built-in drivers.
The Liveware works fine , but it kind of messes up your windows , and you lose hibernation support. Also , with the liveware , the sound gets a strange echo in it , which is quite annoying when you play a lot of music on your computer.
 
So now I only use the built-in drivers , they have some problems with the volume settings being too high , but for the rest they are ok and the sound quality is fine !
