Sound Blaster live, prob

Buggah it appears one has blown up ones sound blaster card,
Trying to feed a external amp,(poss a short on the connecting cable) anyway zip all sound coming from same now.
This card was a Sound Blasrer Live 5.1 card feeding a cambridge sound surround sound system.
Now I have another sound blaster live card, I also have 4 different driver CD's, trouble is I do not know what type of sound blater live card it is it it does have SBLive printed on the card and has the number ct4760 on the card, the sockets for connecting cable at the back are gold plated as opposed to the normal plastic, is this card a Sound Blaster platginum?the reason I ask is from past experience,(I had three different versions of the sound blaster live once), these cards do not like the driver disks for the other types of SB live cards, and caused all sorts of problems when I attempted to load them.
Hmm, have deleted all the SB drivers and will install this new card as a SB platignum and see what happens.
Any help or advice greatfully recieved
