Help with an Older Sound Blaster Audigy Card! Computer freezing on driver upda

Hey everyone,
I'm new to these forums and dont know if anyone still has experience with the older cards.
I've had a Sound Blaster Audigy 2 Platinum for about 6 years now and noticed some popping and sometimes the card began to emit a high pitched whining sound. Thus I decided to install the newest drivers (can't hurt can it's)
However, when I finished installing the drivers, my system refuses to start. Sometimes it's at the Windows login screen, sometimes right after.
I finally got something that may be the reason why my system is hanging. I have a message that pops up that says:
Box Name: ReadReg Application :Version 6.0..36
Message: Completing installation of your audio card
??? Please wait.
My computer is now frozen.
Here are my system specs if it helps
P4 2.66Ghz
ASUS P4S800D-X
PNY 6800GT
SB Audigy 2 Platinum
GB Corsair XMS3200C2PT (2x52MB)
Windows XP Pro
DVD+/-RW DL
DVD ROM
After I did a system restore, the sound driver was missing. Said Creative Audigy in the driver section with the yellow exclamation mark. I installed the new drivers again with the same problem.
Any help is welcome!? Thank you for your time and consideration.

I would:
Pull the sound card.
Start up.Enter the BIOS setup utility to make sure your MB recognizes the change.
Save the BIOS
Start again.
If Windows works.
Run a thorough virus scan (I hope you're running some reputable anti-virus software!!!)
Install Service Pack 3.
Re-install the sound card..
I'll bet Windows finds a driver for it that works. If not, run Windows update manual and see if there's a driver update for the card.
If none of the above helps, well... I confess, I reinstall Windows at the drop of a hat and that usually solves all problems. Do it on a Sunday so you can watch football while Windows churns.
Power Quest Dri've image has saved me from the Windows install horror on many occasions. I think Symantec has pulled the program but there must be something similar out there. Buy it. And in the future, remember, if it ain't broke, don't fix it!
Good luck.

  • Setup could not detect any Sound Blaster Audigy card on your system

    Hi from Barcelona!
    I've a Soun Blaster Audigy card (Model: SB0090)
    I tried to install the Audigy software and drivers from the original product CD but Setup was unable to find Augigy hardware and halted the installation!
    "Setup could not detect any Sound Blaster card on your system. Please ensure that your Sound Blaster hardware is properly installed before running this Setup program"
    By the way. Manually the sound drivers can be installed working only front speakers of the 5. Creative system
    I tried a clean installation of Windows XP and Windows 2000 PRO (reformatted the hard dri've) but Audigy install CD still could not find Audigy hardware.
    I've changed the card to a different PCI slot with the same results!!! Damaged?
    What is happening? I need a solution!! Many users have this problem to with other Sound Blaster cards and models...

    It seems to be an important BUG of Creative Sound Blaster Audigy cards related with EEPROM!!!
    Yes, indeed, that is my theory as well. After much ****hing and on-line research, it seems that this problem has been around since 2002. From Creative Labs point of view, it appears they view this as "pilot error" -- the user has installed the card in a system that is not fully compliant with the latest standards -- specifically Microsofts ACPI (configuration and power management). A wide variety of configurations and/or actions seem to cause the PCI subsystem ID in the Audigy EEPROM to be erroneously overwritten -- including certain older motherboards, certain older PCI cards, and perhaps other actions.
    Once the subsystem ID in the EEPROM is overwritten and has garbage information, many or all of the Creative applications cease working and various sound problems can arise. Attempts to reinstall the driver or update to the latest driver consistently fail becuase of the dreaded "Setup could not detect any Sound Blaster Audigy card in your system..." error message.
    There appear to be four fixes:
    ) Get a replacement Audigy card from Creative, but <EM>only</EM> after you perform their prescribed troubleshooting steps to prove that the card is indeed the source of the problem. Apparently, the steps include installing the card in another PC. Apparently, Creative in Europe is more willing to replace your card than Creative in the US. It's up to Creative Labs whether or not they issue you an RMA ("Return Material Authorization").
    However, this fix will fail if the root causes of the EEPROM error are not corrected. Apparently, Creative Tech Support isn't always a foolproof source of guidance, so the burden is on you. The root cause MUST be corrected before the new card is installed, or the same problem will happen all over again. Eliminating the root cause may involve replacing your motherboard, replacing other PCI cards, or manual configuration (disabling ACPI).
    2) Reprogramming the EEPROM. This is for advanced PC owners only, because it involves desoldering the EEPROM, programming it, and resoldering (and even lifting some pins to prevent reprogramming). There are instructions on how to do this posted in the German Creative Labs discussion board, by a Russian (!). I have links for those who are interested.
    3) Removing the Creative drivers and software (using Clean Sweep procedures and third party utilities), updating again using Windows XP SP2, then physically moving the card to different PCI slots (multiple times if necessary), until ACPI Bios writes the proper information into the EEPROM. You can then reload the drivers.
    Again, the root causes of the problem must be removed or your fix will only be temporary (a day or two). This solution also seems to be very dependent on the specifics of your system (motherboard, PCI cards, etc.).
    4) Some people have had success in by-passing the step in the driver installation process where they check for the Audigy card subsystem ID, using a utility called CTZAPxx on the installation CD. Then then manually install each of the applications they need to use.
    5) Use the open source driver from the kX Project (http://kxproject.lugosoft.com/index.php). This driver (and associated utilities) does not depend on the detailed configuration of the card (i.e. they don't check subsystem ID) and appear to work fine even with cards with corrupted EEPROM.
    This driver is aimed primarily at computer music applications, and opens up the on-card signal processing capabilities. The downside is that the Audigy 2 ZS does not have all of it's capabilities supported <EM>yet </EM>(e.g. Dolby Digital decoding, S/PIF passthrough, possibly some game sound features, THX, 24-bit recording, support for Hyperthreading CPUs, etc.). But scanning over the discussion boards, the user community seems to be MUCH happier with the performance and support associated with these drivers than with Creative's.
    This is the direction I'm going. I'm not a big gamer and I don't really care about the latest in home theater audio performance. Basic 5. surround sound is all I care about, and I'm much more interested in computer music capabilities.
    I have also lost faith in Creative Labs as a vendor to provide the support I want and need going forward. Just imagine if the Creative Labs were running the Space Shuttle program :smileysurprised:.

  • Error with Sound Blaster Audigy 2 installation...driv

    Hi
    I am really stuck with this issue and was wondering if someone out there could help. I have an Audigy 2, and have had it working for a long period of time. I had to re install Windows not so long ago and since then I have found a number of errors with my sound.
    Firstly there are a lot of pops and clicks when either gaming or playing audio files. Admittedly the pops and clicks happen a lot more when gaming (multiple sounds playing at once ?).
    Therefore I decided to come onto creatives site and download the new drivers for my sound card. I was still running the original drivers from the CD supplied, so felt it was about time.
    I downloaded the file SBA2_PCWDRV_LB__84_55-R, which is the correct update for my card and tried to install it.
    It comes up with a message:
    Setup could not detect and Sound Blaster Audigy 2 on you system.
    Please ensure that your sound blaster hardware is properly installed before running this setup program.
    setup will not exit
    After that message i was a little confused, because as far as I was concerned everything was working ok, sound was coming out and was coming out correctly from my 5. surround system.
    So i double clicked on the Creative Volume Control to check everything was on.
    I'm not sure if this is an error but a long the top where you select the output device mine says:
    SB Audigy [A000]
    I'm not 00% sure but I don't think it said that before, I think it said something else, but I could be wrong.
    I decided to uninstall my sound card and re-install. Everything installed absolutely fine from the CD, recognised the card and no complaints.
    So I tried to re-install the driver update, and same message. (And the output device is still SB Audigy [A000].
    Again I uninstalled and tried the Beta patch on the off chance that that would work, still nothing, it does not recognise the card in my computer.
    I definately have an Audigy 2 and it has worked properly allowing me to update it before.
    Sorry to have such a long message, but I am really confused about all of this and would really like to get everything working properly.
    Any advice and help would be appreciated.
    Thanks

    fedepolito,
    I assume that you are running WinXP with Service Pack 3. Did you do a clean sweep of all the Creative Software and reinstall from the A2ZS CD? Do you get sound then?
    Me disculpo que no entend?a que todo que usted dijo en su poste. Asumo que usted est? funcionando Windows XP con el Service Pack 3. ?Usted hizo un retiro del barrido limpio de todo el Creative software? (Busque los foros para el "clean sweep." ) ?Despu?s de eso, cuando usted reinstala del CD de Audigy 2 ZS, usted consigue el sonido?

  • Sound Blaster Audigy software CD probl

    For a few years now, I have been running the old Sound Blaster audigy card, and have never needed to upgrade as it's such a good card and it does everything it's required. The problem comes in the form of the original software CD distributed with the card. (I've already read the faq and have already found a solution) The software CD is very terrible, in the great many years I have had to reinstall my system for various reasons, the part where I install my audigy card software is by far the most tedious, and completely unpredictable.
    When I say tedious, the installation takes forever, even if you set the most minimum of installation requirements. On top of that, if the program in itself loses focus, it halts the installation, so no playing Freecell in the background to pass the time. Otherwise, the installation generally halts at around the 97% mark and says "updating drivers..." I've left this one night and gone to bed and it's still been at 97% over 0 hours. This one really gets me, there's no error message. So the only way around this is to ctrl-alt-del, and uninstall, and then restart.
    On the other hand, as I recently found out, installing of the playcenter that comes with the CD, often stalls the installation completely. During the install playcenter wants to know which media formats to assosiate. The problem is, it brings that screen up behind all the windows, and the only way you know it's done that is by clicking "show desktop". It's not possible to bring it to the foreground, so basically the installation has to be killed.
    But then I get to the unpredictable part, half the time the installation isn't complete, and if you open up the surround mixer, most of the information is missing, no speaker settings or EAX.
    So for a long time I looked for a remedy to this problem, often downloading the Webupdates didn't seem to always work, they too had their similar problems. And only now have I finally come up with the answer, the new OpenAL beta drivers. Completely different installation program, and works perfectly. To think an installation of the size of around 20mb has fixed such a long problem, thankyou Creative I can now chuck out this completely useless CD and replace it with the quick and very easy OpenAL beta. I thought it was supposed to be the beta products that were more buggy.
    Anyone else noticed these style problems?

    I've been fiddling around in the Device Manager and it has Other Devices and under it is Multimedia Audio Controller, I can choose to either reinstall the driver udate the driver, disable it, or uninstall it. Here's what comes up on properties
    This device is not configured correctly. (Code )
    To reinstall the drivers for this device, click Reinstall Driver.
    Help would be appreciated here. I'm a big gamer and would like to have this up and running before our first CAL Match.

  • Sound Blaster Audigy & Vi

    I'm new to these boards, not posted much at all. I have been confused about something. I currently use the Sound Blaster Audigy card. I have a 4. speaker setup. I utilize the "heavy metal" option under the EAX->Advanced EQ section of the Audio Console. My question is will I be able to use the same exact settings in Vista or will I have to upgrade my card? I tried going through the forums for the answer and I just got confused with all the different posts/information. I tried PMing the mods and Cat about getting some info but, it seems they want to ignore my messages even though I was polite.

    Well, first, the PM links in the profiles were acti've which means to me that the PM function was turned on. If the Mods have it turned off and it doesn't show to the regular forum goers then, the fault would lay with Creative or more specifically, the mods for misleading people into thinking that the message was actually received/read. If the message was read it is only courteous to at least quick reply and say, sorry, we don't know anything yet, etc or actually answer the question. Not answering only leads people to believe they are being ignored and again, the fault is with Creative and/or the mods. I wasn't trying to get technical support as nothing is wrong with my Audigy card. So I don't see the need to contact Tech Support. The mods have posted details about the cards and Vista which tells me they could answer simple questions.

  • Sound Blaster Audigy 2 ZS Problem: Static no

    Hi karloch,
    Pardon me for saying that I did not detect the noise you mentioned in your attached MP3 file. I can't be sure it's the noise or is it part of the music; especially towards the end of the playback. I'm using VLC player btw.
    Perhaps, you may like to test it with another media player.

  • Is Creative Sound Blaster Audigy 2 NX USB sound card compatible with Dell deskt

    Im considering buying the Creative Sound Blaster Audigy 2 NX USB sound card to use with a Dell desktop XPS 40, but recently read a forum message on another page that there was a issue with installing on a Dell Tower but no problems with installing on a laptop
    any help is appreciated if there are any compatibility issues with using this sound card on a Dell desktop, Thanks
    the main reason I would like to upgrade to this card is so my pc doesnt use the integrated audio which Id like better quality performance with a sound card and also dont want to install a internal card on the system

    joaolfb,
    Audigy 2 NX will need to be connected with the power adaptor inorder to run. USB will not be enough to sustain the power consumption of the sound card.

  • Help! Creative Sound Blaster Audigy SE 7.1 Sound Card -

    Hello. I've just recieved my new soundcard. It is the Creative Sound Blaster Audigy SE 7. Sound Card - OEM. (Located here: http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showp...atid=&subcat=)
    My motherboard is a Asus A8N SLi se.
    Now, I have put it in my motherboard, and just tried to install the drivers. I got an error though. It said "No compatible creative product detected." So I downloaded the drivers off the Creative site, and that did not help either. I disabled the onboard sound in the BIOS, and yet it still did not work. I tried plugging in the soundcard into each of the soundcard ports on my motherboard, and none of them detected the card.
    I am sick of using onboard, and would like to get this problem fixed.
    Some additional information:
    The back audio/microphone ports on my motherboard never worked. I have been using the front sockets on my case. I see cables running from my motherboard to the front of my case. Maybe one of those cables need to go into my soundcard in order for it to work? I'm not sure which though, so I didn't try it, just incase.
    Here are some screenshots of what I'm getting. They might help.

    Unknown Device in my Device Manager: http://img409.imageshack.us/img409/9924/unknownoj8.jpg
    Now, I have no other creative parts in my computer. So this should be the soundcard, right?
    Thanks in advanced for any replies.

    Does the cable from the MB to the front I/O panel simuliar to this one? I installed a Audigy2 ZS in my other system and connected the black cable with the 0 pin connector to the card to use my front phone/mike jacks. Also in your device manager I see the Realtek AC97 still listed. When I installed the XM card in my 600 I disabled it in the BIOS so the entry does not show up in mine just the SB XF-I is displayed.

  • Sound Blaster Audigy with 5.1 Speakers prob

    I have 5. speakers with a sound blaster audigy sound card. I've installed all the drivers and additional programs but it looks like my 2 rear speakers are not working. I thought maybe it was some kind of speaker problem but when i switched the 2 rear with the 2 front then the rear worked but front didn't. In the surround mixer i tested the 5. and here are the results:
    - Front Left (Sound: OK, Speaker: OK)
    - Center (Sound: NO SOUND)
    - Front Right (Sound: OK, Speaker: OK)
    - Rear Left (Sound: OK, Speaker: NO - The sound comes from the center speaker)
    - Rear Right (Sound NO - It sounds very strange... bearly you can understand the words, Speaker: NO - The sound comes from the center speaker)
    The wired are set correctly i checked it and I dont know what it might be wrong. Drivers are ok and everything are installed. Help please.

    "I thought maybe it was some kind of speaker problem but when i switched the 2 rear with the 2 front then the rear worked but front didn't."
    Does this not indicate two of the speakers are not physically working? Or have a mis-interpreted?

  • Sound Blaster Audigy 2 ZS Platinum with Vista 64

    0Sound Blaster Audigy 2 ZS Platinum with Vista 64Y Hi
    I'm considering buying a Sound Blaster Audigy 2 ZS Platinum (with front panel) off ebay, but first I'd like to know if certain features will be compatible with my system. I'm running Vista Home Basic 64bit (hardware is an Asus P5Q-E, Q6600, 2GB of RAM, ATI Radeon HD4850, etc). I'll be using this card for my PC's 5. surround sound system (using the stereo outputs), and more importantly, recording some music. I want to achieve this by using the optical S/PDIF port, as my bass guitar effects board has an S/PDIF output and I've got an S/PDIF cable. I'd also like to use the Line In and Mic inputs. The driver before the latest one for this card said that there was no S/PDIF passthrough for Vista. Has the latest driver got everything I need fixed, so I can just plug it in, install the drivers and then be happily recording through these three inputs?
    Thanks for the help?

    I am brand new to this message system but I am so desperate for help I thought I would try it. After reading lots of comments I find that my problem may be more the rule than the exception. I have an Audigy @ Platinum card and all I ever get from it is crackling and popping. I have been around and around with Creative support but nothing they tell me results in a fix. I am so disgusted at this point that I am ready to just trash the whole thing. I have gone through the BIOS and checked so many settings its a shame. Still crackling and popping. I NEED SPECIFIC ANSWERS FROM SOMEBODY...not just the generic flip the wingle wangle to port xyz and move this to that. here has got to be an answer to this maddening problem. The other thing is that now I can't get my MIDI keyboard to play back. I must have turned something off in the set up process but now I have no idea what to do.
    If anyone has any solid answers for me PLEASE come forward with them before I kill someone!
