Threads on windows xp & jukebox zen driver installation and no resu

I didn't know Creative didn't know how to solve the driver problem with windows xp. Because if they did there would be a simple solution instead of alot of run around on try this and that. There are so many people on this board with the same problem that I have and none of them got a straight answer on " Here this is what you do," Bam! that should be it. Obviously its a lousy software that doesn't really work. So if someone can tell me how to install a driver or make windows xp recognize my jukebox zen so I can transfer some music to the **bleep** thing I would really greatly appreciate it. We all shouldn't have to be geniuses to use this software.

  • Windows 8 64-bit, failed installations and RAID 1 resync on HP ENVY h8-1520z

    I recently purchased an HP Envy h8-1520z with a single SSD and 8 GB RAM running Windows 8 Pro 64-bit.  I installed 2 Western Digital 500 GB WDC WD5000AAKX-001CA0 HDDs on SATA ports 5 & 6 and configured them as RAID 1 in the BIOS.  I have started installing apps on the RAID 1 array (E since the SSD is only 256 GB.
    While installing software, some install fine, but often the installation hangs with no errors indicated and I have to kill the installer task through task manager.  I usually follow that with a system shutdown or restart and almost every time that results in a resync of the RAID array.  Sometimes the shutdown or restart is quick, and other times it takes several minutes with intermittent disk activity as indicated by the drive light.  I have sometimes given up after 10 minutes or so and powered down by holding down the power button.  I can understand a resync after the forced power down, but it seems that all it takes to cause a resync is a failed installation, and that seem to happen a lot, even with software that explicitly says it is Windows 8 compatible.  Sometimes the applications run fine even after an apparently failed installation and other times not so much.
    Has anybody else seen this behavior or have any suggestions?  I’d like to get this sorted out before I load any more software.

    Hi,
    Did you check each hard drive for straps? There should not be any straps installed on the hard drive. These drives do have strapping posts.
    Did you use the AMD RaidExpert to create the array volume?  Did you wait until the RAID migration was complete before using the array volume?
    Check the AMD RaidExpert for errors. It's possible that you have a bad hard drive(s).
    Many applications want to be installed on the C drive.  Your SSD is 256GB so you should have plenty of space for most applications and the application performance will be improved.  Use the RAID 1 array to keep and store your data. The mirroring process of RAID 1 will protect it in case one hard drive fails.
    You might want to consider removing all of the data etx.. from the array, use the AMD RAIDExpert to delete out the array volume.  I would then run for hard drive diagnostics.  If the hard drives are free from errors then use disk management to separately reformat each hard drive.  Now go back to the AMD RaidExpert and create your new array volume.
    Be sure to review the software and bios updates for your PC.

  • Nomad Jukebox Zen Xtra play and share update probl

    I have a jukebox Zen Xtra and I tried to update it for the play and share so it will work on my xbox 360. When I went to update the firmware everyone was going good and then it rebooted and stayed at the recovery menu and just stopped. I tried reconnecting it and it registers that it is connected to the USB for a second then it says device not connected. How do I get it connected again, or what am I doing wrong. I just want to update it so I can use it on my Xbox. How do I get it to update right? Thanks.

    Manning888,
    Which firmware are you referring to Assuming you are referring to the PlayForSure firmware, make sure you have Windows XP with at least SP and WMP0 installed. Also, you can try looking into this Knowledgebase article SID0053.

  • Windows 8.1 Tablet applicaiton (installation and license)

    I have developed Windows 8.1 Tablet application. We don't want to upload this to Windows store (our client want it to be private only). We are facing 2 issues
    1. It asks windows live ID to run the application which expires after 30 days. Client don't want frequently enter live ID and it should be installed and run without live ID.
    2. We want to install the app to multiple users on the tablet. Once its installed it should be available to all users who are accessing that tab. currently it is installed per user.
    what are the possible solutions to these 2 problems
    Thanks
    -Vinod

    The developer license you are using (and that expires after 30 days) is designed for development and test purposes. It is not appropriate for production use. For production you will want to set the devices up for proper side-loading.
    See
    Try It Out: Sideload Windows Store Apps on TechNet for how to enable side-loading on your systems.
    If your Windows 8.1 Pro systems are on a domain then they don't need a separate key. You just need to enable them for side-loading. See
    Windows 8.1 Update: Sideloading Enhancements
    If they aren't on a domain then they'll need a side-loading key. If you're enrolled in a volume license program (see the Sideloading Enhancements link for which ones) you should be able to get side-loading keys from that. If not then you can buy an Enterprise
    Sideloading key through the
    Open License program.
    See the
    Windows Volume Licensing Guide and
    Sideloading Licensing Changes FAQ
    You should be able to provision the system to automatically enable the app for individuals as they log in, but I don't know the details.
    Since your questions are about system configuration rather than about development they would be better off in the Windows 8.1 IT Pro forums on TechNet than on MSDN. You'll find more expertise on these subjects there. I'll move your post over for you.

  • Driver installs and direct x

    im currently installing bootcamp to use win 7.
    i want to know if drivers are still the same for windows, i mean can i still use as if it was on pc, install direct x and hardwareand video drivers the same, or do i have to get apple variants? also do i need firewall/antivirus
    also how do i do windows updates? through the microsoft as usual? also my MBP has dual graphics how will this work within windows?
    thanks

    Yes, though with laptops the drivers can be an issue.
    If you have Intel 3000 integrated it may also not work the same as a PC.
    Definitely, of course you need Security  - whatever you know and respect, and can trust.
    Windows 7 MSSE is free and does a good job. I use that, and Kaspersky 2011 Suite. I would not go with just AV portion.  Most have or look like good 2012 suites coming out.

  • Can't boot from windows 7 install usb drive created in bootcamp

    So, my real problem is that my Windows 7 install won't boot after I installed some windows updates. I'm using OSX Lion and the latest version of Bootcamp. I've had Windows installed on my mid 2011 mac mini for only about a day. It had been working flawlessly so far.
    Windows automatically downloaded and installed some updates and now it is broken.
    When I attempt to boot windows I get a black screen that just hangs forever. No windows logo, no blinking cursor, no nothing.
    I thought I could use my Windows 7 Install usb drive to maybe try and do a recovery or repair install but now my USB drive wont boot either. I get the same black screen.
    Any ideas on why I can't boot even the install usb drive?
    Note: this is the same USB drive I used to install windows the first time so it's definately capable. I've even used my install iso to re-create the usb drive installer and still nothing.

    Install ISO means you burned DVD installer and did you reduce burn speed? otherwise it is a bad install.
    3rd party updates? for security suite? stick to MS Security Essentials instead.

  • "Windows could not complete the installation"

    I took delivery of a new T400 today. Imagine my surprise upon turning it on to see the Windows F8 recovery menu, and a message about the system not having been shut down cleanly. Strange thing on a machine straight from the facory !
    Well anyway I let it boot into the normal mode. Next the OS booted and something obviously ran to install updates. I suspect that one of these failed. Eventually I was presented with a dialog that says "Windows could not complete the installation" and "To install Windows on this computer, restart the installation". Sadly this same dialog displays regardless of how many times I reboot. 
    Reading the scanty doc that came with the machine, it appears to have a recovery partition and a way to invoke a factory restore from the partition. Unfortunately entering recovery mode does not work (I press F11 and it goes ahead and boots into Vista anyway).
    Next I tried calling Lenovo. They politely said that they are not working at this hour and I should call back in the morning. Well I am planning to take this new laptop on a business trip in the morning and won't have time to call before I have to be at the airport.
    So back to self-diagnosis...I found that when in the 'All your install are belong to us' mode, I could press ctl-alt-del and get task manager up. From there I could run commands such as cmd.exe and msconfig. Using msconfig I opened the event viewer. Nothing too interesting in there, except that a service or driver called tuvu...somethign didn't start.
    Another thing I found is that there is no way any longer to get to the F8 safe mode menu on boot. It just blips on the screen for a nanosecond and then it's gone (even if you have pressed F8). So I used msconfig to boot into safe mode. That didn't help.
    I've always bought cheapo off-brand laptops from Costco, and this was my first 'premium brand' purchase. To say the least I am not impressed. Surely Lenovo can spare 10 minutes to ensure that each machine actually boots before they ship ??
    Any pointers on how to fix this machine are most welcome.
    UPDATE : I made some progress on my own. On a whim I decided to go looking for the process that had so rudely decided that I couldn't use my computer. Browsing the process list in taskman, I noticed something called 'runonce.exe'. So I did the obvious thing and killed it. Bingo ! I now have the vista desktop and the machine appears to be working just fine. It's now updating. Presumably I can find and disable this thing that used the runonce wrapper and I'll be good to go,.

    I had this same problem on my T61 and after seeing yoru post I imaged my system successfully to get rid of the problem on my system. You can image it without making burning any discs. What I did was hit the Thinkvantage button during boot, chose the Restor System option, chose full factory reset, chose to delete all my files and then chose the custom option for recovery. I don't remember exactly which items I unchecked, but there were a few towards the end that had OOBE in the name. I let it complete the restore and it seems to be working fine now. So you might want to try doing it that way, I was hoping that one of the things I unchecked was whatever was causing the system to crash near the end of install and mess up the Vista installation.
    Good luck! Hopefully this will work for you instead of just wasting like 3 hours...

  • TVAnywhere Plus Blue Screen on Driver Installation!

    So I picked up the MSI TVAnywhere Plus PCI Card.
    I installed it on the very bottom PCI slot on my MSI K9N2 SLI Platinum motherboard.
    Right in the middle of the Driver installation, it blue screens on me.
    Quote
    *** STOP: 0x0000007E (0xC00000005, 0x9F8A3595, 0xB8507534, 0xB8507230)
    *** 3xHybrid.sys - Address 9F8A3595 base at 9F88A000, Datestamp 4a94af72
    Beginning dump of physical memory
    After this, it reboots and then boots back into Windows.  Soon as Windows finishes loading up it then tells me that the Driver I was trying to install is not WDM Certified, do I want to continue, yes or no.
    If I select Yes, then it does the exact same Blue Screen, again... and reboots, again... rinse, repeat, back to the Driver not WDM question, continue? yes, no?... rinse.. repeat...
    If I select No, then it tells me that there is a problem with the Driver Installation and thats it.  My computer is then free to use but I can't use my new hardware.
    If I go into Add/Remove programs and attempt to delete the software in there that was installed (as it seemed to have installed software related to the remote control) it will give me an Error and tell me that the Software can not be uninstalled, because it was not properly installed in the first place.  I have the same problem if I try this through Safe Mode.
    I can not delete any thing that was installed, because it tells me I have to reinstall it first... but I can't install it, or reinstall it, period!  Every time I try, it blue screens!
    Now, I have also tried going in through my Device Manager, selecting the device in the list, selecting Reload Drivers and MANUALLY Searching for the drivers on the CD and installing them that way, and again... same Blue Screen at the same point!
    Lastly, I have attempted to download Drivers from the MSI Website.
    However, those Drivers are a Year older then the ones that came on the CD.  The downloaded ones are dated July 3, 2008.  The Drivers on the CD are dated December 2009!  Also, the download gives me a Zip File with 3 sets of identical files.  I can not extract anything from the Zip File because all the files keep over writing each other.  There's three sets of each files, all different sizes.  I would presume to thing that one set is for XP, one is for 2000, and the third is for Vista.  Yet, there is no documention or any designation that tells me what is what so I can seperate them and use the correct one...
    So.
    Help!

    Ok!
    /sighs...
    Audio problems fixed... have no idea how it happened but... didn't have anything to do with any my Creative X-Fi software, it was something in Windows itself that got screwed up.
    In Control Panel, under "Sounds and Audio Devices"... then in the Audio Tab, and then select the Volume Button to open Windows' built in volume controls.  Then on that, under "Play Controls" there is a button for "Speaker Volume" which controls the volume of up to 8 speakers on a 7.1 system. 
    Somehow, the sliders for my two rear channels, my front right channel, and my Sub, were all reset to zero.
    Again, no idea how that happened but seemed to have happened after I got the PVR Software working.

  • 32bit DIFx Driver Installer Error when Installing 9.0.2

    Never had a previous problem with iTunes and when I went to use it this morning, it crashes everytime. Uninstalled completely, reinstalled 9.0.2 and now I get an error "32bit DIFx Driver Installer" and iTunes "finishs" installing and crashes after opening again. Have tried unsuccessfully to figure out a fix for this. All my children got iPod Touches for Christmas and I got a brand new iPod nano and none of us can use them now. Please help!

    Hey guys! So, I experienced the same issues with the newest iTunes update. I updated several days ago, but I used iTunes for the first time since the update today. iTunes would load but immediately display a message that it needed to close. After several attempts to open iTunes, I reinstalled QuickTime as suggested by another website. Also suggested was trying to repair QuickTime and iTunes. When that didn't work, I removed both QuickTime and iTunes and did a clean reinstall from new downloads. When I did this, I got the 32bit DIFx Driver Installer error. It "finished" the install, but it still closed immediately upon opening. I ran Malware-Bytes and Hijack This to check for spyware/adware/mal-ware a few days ago so I was fairly certain my system was clean...but after two hours of trying to figure out this problem, I decided to go ahead and check for virus or malware.
    Indeed, I found six files (mostly located in the System Volume Information folder). After having Avast remove these files...iTunes successfully installed without the DIFx error! So much for being "sure" my system was clean. The files found were all related to the Win32:Malware-gen virus.
    So I suggest you check your system for malware and virus infection. I did my scan in safe mode and did the most in-depth search that Avast will perform. I highly suggest doing a full search with UPDATED virus program even if you think your computer is okay.
    I have had no issues with iTunes after cleaning my computer!

  • How can i extract the data from the jukebox zen h

    Hi,
    my jukebox zen fireware crashed and i extract the hard disk from the player, now, I?m trying to extract the mp3 files from this hd. I?ve connected to the pc via usb external box and my pc recognizes the hard disk and the data inside but i dont know how to extract it, can anyone say me how to do it please ?
    Thanks.

    The hard disk is in a custom format and there's no known method of extracting the data, in the public domain at least.
    Some folks have had luck with both Creative and private services in terms of getting the data extracted, but it'll cost.

  • My hard drive broke and I lost all imported photos

    I would always import all my photos from iphone and ipad 2 onto my laptop (windows). My hard drive crashed and I previously had stored a back up of the photos on a flash drive. But I needed the flash drive to install the one time Windows recovery install so I had to delete and reformat the flash drive. Is there any way to be able to get the photos back? Either off flash drive if I copy contents of windows recovery onto a new flash drive or from an icloud back up? I can't go the easy route and see all my back up son Windows becsuse this is a new hard drive. Thanks for the help. Also, the ipad 2 has been stolen so I can't use that one but is bought a new Ipad 2.

    Obviously by my sign-on I am not on the Cloud - but if you are backing up to it - you may be able to get your photos back - depending on the type of backup and the amount of data kept.  
    I have two external back up drives - time machine and one for a full backup of my library.   Also have burned photos on DVD & have them two places.
    Once you go digital on pictures - no hard copy - you have to consider multiple backups.

  • Nomad Jukebox Zen Xtra stops working with XP following Windows Media Player 11 Beta Installat

    Yesterday I was very pleased to find that my Creative Zen Xtra (model DAP-HD00) portable media player is a PlaysForSure capable device. Creative Labs, on November 9, 2005, released the Creative Zen Xtra PlaysForSure Firmware v2.0.03. I installed this firmware (I had to install the Creative ZenJukebox Driver v.30.03 first to get Windows to recognize the device). Once the firmware was upgraded, Windows began recognizing the Zen Xtra as a MTP device and life was good. I was able to synchronize it with both Napster To Go and Windows Media Player 0.
    After this, I went ahead and installed Windows Media Player Beta, which I just downloaded yesterday as well.
    From a functional standpoint, WMP seems to run just fine. However, when I connected the Creative Zen Xtra (with its PlaysForSure firmware), Windows redetected the hardware. It first showed "Creative Jukebox Zen Xtra" in the tooltip, followed by "MTP Device" in the new hardware tooltip. Finally, Windows announced that there was a problem installing my new hardware and that it may not work properly.
    Sure enough, when I went into Device Manager, my Zen Xtra was showing as an MTP Device with an exclamation point on it. More specifically, it specified the status of, "This device cannot start (Code 0)."
    Prior to the installation of Windows Media Player, the Creative Zen Xtra showed in device manager with the following characteristics under the heading "Windows Portable Devices":
    Name: NOMAD Jukebox Zen XtraDriver Version: 5.2.0.0 dated 8/30/2004Digitally Signed by Microsoft Windows Component Publisher
    Driver File Details:C:\Windows\system32\wpdusb.sys - v5.2.3802.3802 built by dnsrv(bld4act)
    Windows Media Player changed this to the following (the device now shows up under "Portable Devices"):
    Name: MTP DeviceDriver Version: 5.2.5326.4762 dated 2/22/2006Digitally Signed by Microsoft Windows Component Publisher
    Driver File Details:C:\Windows\system32\wpdusb.sys - v5.2.5358.4827 (WMP_.060509-2009)C:\Windows\system32\DRIVERS\wudfrd.sys - v6.0.5348.0(winmain(wmbla).0604-339)
    The file wudfrd.sys is NOT digitally signed in this case.
    As of now, my Zen Xtra is completely unusable on this system, and I need to sync it with my laptop for the time being, which still has WMP 0 installed on it.
    Is this a bug with WMP beta? Is it a problem with my firmware? Since this is PlaysForSure compliant firmware, and it worked flawlessly with Napster and WMP 0 (before the MTP driver was updated), it would seem to be a WMP beta issue. I'd like to hear more official confirmation on the subject, however.
    Some general details about my system are:
    Microsoft Windows XP Professional with Service Pack 2Verified GENUINE Microsoft operating system using Genuine Advantage ValidationIntel Pentium 4 CPU 3.2 GHz, Hyper-Threaded processor2.00 GB RAM
    Windows Media Player Version: .0.5358.4827Napster Version: 3.6.0.7 (US)
    Any recommendations? Fixes? Some have suggested rolling back the WMP installation, but I would like to consider this option only as an absolute last resort.
    Best regards,Matt

    Ok, this worked out accidentally - but happily
    I first installed the driver - not the media source - but the driver for the device.
    After that the windows device manager yellow sign disappeared - apparently the device driver was registered by windows.
    Then I Installed Mediasource 5 - the installation went thru fine.
    Does anyone have any recommended updates to install, please also advise what benefits.
    Thanks.

  • No driver found - Nomad Jukebox Zen Xtra - WinXP

    I have used my Zen Xtra for over 2 years now, with the same PC I am currently having problems with. I recently had to do a complete reinstall of Windows (note that I have done at least 2 other complete reinstalls during the life of my Zen Xtra, with no problems). Windows Device Managers sees the NOMAD Jukebox Zen Xtra, but with the yellow question mark and exclamation point. Each attempt at driver installation results in the same problem. The driver ("JB3MV2_PCWDRV_US__30_03.EXE") installs completely, I'm told to reconnect my device so the driver can take effect. When I do, the device is still marked in Device Manager with exclamation point and yellow question mark, and Windows continues to ask if it can find and install the driver. I have told it not to (knowing that I just installed Creative's own driver), with no success, and other times let Windows try to install the driver (hoping it would find the Creative driver that was just installed). No luck. I have even done another complete reinstall of Windows, and tried to install the driver before any other program or hardware installations into my system. No luck. Note that there are no hardware changes between now and when I have done other complete Windows reinstallations. It just no longer accepts the Creative driver. I have also tried to install the driver in safe mode, with the same results. I have also completely removed the Zen Xtra (showing hidden devices in the Device Manager), and tried to reinstall. Firmware version of Zen Xtra was upgraded over a year ago to 2.0.03.
    Specifics:
    Windows XP Pro SP2
    38GB free hard dri've space
    Zen Xtra firmware version: 2.0.03

    I have the same problem. But when i try to installl it it says he is missing an .nfo file.
    I removed WMP and reinstalled WM0 because is crap.
    I have Windows XP SP2
    I have the newst firmware on it.
    Can somebody help me with this because it's annoying not to put any new music on your mp3 player.
    I never experienced this before even after formatting my HD.
    Almost the same problem as fritzm but not completely because het gets an different error.
    I have installed the CD but that doesnt work either.
    I have installed the software from the website but that didnt help because he doesnt recognize my player.
    Please help!!
