Creative Labs PC-DVD Encore Driver (Windows 95/98/NT 4.0)

Used Creative Labs PC-DVD Encore Driver (Windows 95/98/NT 4.0) for Windows?

The Windows 98 WDM driver only works with Windows 98 SE. You will need to use the Windows 98 WDM drivers only if you intend to use Microsoft DVD Player or need DirectShow support. Aside from the WDM drivers, there are no major changes or updates in the applications and drivers from the previous version.

This package works only with the PC-DVD Encore and PC-DVD Encore 5x kits with a Dxr2 Decoder, and the PC-DVD RAM drive with a Dxr2 Decoder card. This file does not support the Dxr3 Decoder.

Manual MISPRINTED!
June 22, 2004
Pros
Cons
Summary
I found that it was NOT possible to install the original drivers in win 95 or 98 by exactly following Createives useless manual as a misprint meant that only a call to tech support made the intall work in 95, the upgrade to 98 was awkward, and now that I have XP, it is useless in XP, and only a double boot install, so that I was able to boot and play dvds in 98 using the old OS, has kept the board from being UTTERLY useless, This IS a pattern at creative, cutting edge tech, rushed to market with BAD documentation, and then rapidly abandoned as the OS gets upgraded, creative is now near LAST place in my list of vendors and I am reluctant to buy ANYTHING from them ever again REGARDLESS of how nifty or advanced it may seem at the moment......
