Yes, it's possible. IIRC Live! was the last card to actually be binary compatible with legacy SoundBlaster cards if you don't mind the lack of ISA. But if I'm wrong somebody correct me please. Still, you should be able to get DOS drivers for every Creative Labs PCI card starting from rebranded EnSoniq cards up until and including the Audigy 2 ZS. Just try to be careful because all those cards require a memory manager and that screws up a lot of games really badly.

If you're like me and don't have an ISA slot to install a problem-free sound card, you might be more lucky with a Yamaha YMF724 if your motherboard supports DDMA. Not even gonna mention SBLink, this quirk is present on maybe 5 or 6 motherboards total. On top of that, you'll need to hex edit your ISA bridge's PCI vendor:device number into the supported device table of the Yamaha driver, if your southbridge is not supported by stock drivers.

Is it possible to have sound on SoundBlaster Live! CT4830 for PCI slot in FreeDOS?

I know there is no problem with old SoundBlaster sound cards with an ISA slot. But what is SoundBlaster Live! to PCI slot? Is it possible to emulate legacy SoundBlaster sound cards?
