FX530 owners - Creative X-Fi software?

Have any FX530 owners with the Creative Labs X-Fi sound card (SB0460) ever
got the CT application software to install? I just borrowed a friends X-Fi
installation CD for Windows Vista and I get a "no supported product" error
running setup, because I have an OEM card. here are my system specs:

Gateway FX530 Gaming PC, Windows Vista Ultimate 32bit, Intel Q6600 Core 2
Quad CPU, 4gb RAM, 500gb RAID-0 HD, Nvidia 8800GTX 768mb GPU, 22" Widescreen
LCD, Asus/ViXS Combo-210E TV Tuner, Creative SoundBlaster X-FI Audio,
Logitech MX518 Gaming Mouse, Logitech Premium Stereo Headset, external Lacie
500gb USB backup drive

Have you tried Gateway's driver for that card?

I have the latest Vista drivers and basic apps like Creative Smart Recorder,
Creative WaveStudio 7 and Creative MediaSource 5. I'm talking about the
other apps like Creative Entertainment Center, Vienna SoundFont Studio,
SoundFont Bank Manager, 3D MIDI Player, Karaoke Player, Creative Media
Toolbox, etc.
