Did you try uninstalling them and going back to whatever drivers you used before?

SB live drivers are shifty. I\'ve had heaps of problems too. Best way to install them, is to completely uninstall the old ones, outta reg and outta your system. Then installing updated drivers should be easy with no problems. When you do a clean install of your os. just install the new drivers  \'doh :)

There\'s a solution to your problem. They call it a shotgun. Would work quite well.
