This is what works for me.

1) Install NT.
2) Install Service Pack 3 (not 4,5, or 6)
3) Head over to http://support.soundblaster.com/files/download.asp?OS=NT&prod=sblive and
download sblnt4up.exe.
4) Install the SBLive! with the original CD-ROM that came with the card. (may take a while, be patient)
5) Install sblnt4up.exe
6) Install Service Pack 6 (4 or 5 should be OK too)
7) Download and install Liveware 3.0 (see url above)
8) Download and install Liveware 3.1 update (optional)
9) Disco!

I did a lot of trial and error before I found a procedure that works.
