Why I get a Blue-screen of death after loading Liveware 3.0 for Creative SBLive! sound card under Windows ME? (VP6)

It's caused by a conflict between Liveware 3.0 and hpt driver. Please manually reserve IRQ5 for legacy ISA in BIOS PnP/PCI submenu.

PnP/PCI configurations-> Resources controlled by -> manual -> IRQ -> IRQ5 assigned to -> legacy ISA -> Save & Exit setup

One more suggestion, disable unused COM ports and LPT port to release more IRQ resources.
