Windows 7 does not like my Audigy Card at all

Hey guys,
Got too excited and went out and bought Windows 7 Ultimate x64 - fantastic. Problem is, I have no sound - my Asus Rampage Formula motherboard has no onboard sound as it comes with a seperate sound card which won't work and neither will the cheapy Audigy standard one I bought today to try...
7 automatically installs some drivers when it detects I have a sound card installed and sticks it in the Device Manager under 'System Devices' and calls it a 'High Definition Audio Controller'
Now I found the new Win 7 drivers on here and downloaded in the hope of installing and overwriting this 'Hi Def Audio Controller' but when i'm in setup I get the error message "Setup is unable to detect a supported product on your system. Please ensure that your product is properly installed before running this Setup Program. Setup will exit" which is completely baffling me as Win7 can detect and install this 'audio controller' - when I hover over the volume icon in the taskbar (which incidentally has a red cross over it) it says 'No audio output is installed"
I'm probably going wrong somewhere, but I don't know if its Win7 or these "Windows 7" drivers don't actually work?
Please can anyone help?!!

Re: Windows 7 does not like my Audigy Card at all^ Perhaps you can try this:
<a rel="nofollow" href="http://support.creative.com/downloads/download.aspx?nDownloadId=0960"]http://support.creative.com/downloads/download.aspx?nDownloadId=0960[/url]
Yes I know that that is a standard driver from Creative. But try to download the driver. Then right click it, and extract it. You can extract it like this if you have WINRAR, WINACE, or WINZIP on your system. Even the free 7-zip will work great.
Then go to device manager, and then to your unknown device, and then update driver, and then choose "have disk....." and browse to the folder where you unzipped the driver. Then install the driver, allowing it to copy the files over to your system. Reboot. Sound may still not be working at this point. Then try windows update or the Daniel K. pack again. Using this method may seem weird but I am trying to "trick" your system into picking up your Audigy.
This worked for me before with my x-fi Titanim and my Extreme gamer when I switched to Vista 64.

  • Windows does not detect my sound card

    Hello, I have a thinkcentre m58p dt. I had to reinstall windows(same version which was already installed before) but since I did it integratedsound behaves a strange way. Windows detects it and it appears in the device windows menu. I can use headphones but I can’t use the speaker like I used to do. Windows says the device is not connected.

    Spinedoc,
    This problem may be caused by the USB ports on your system not providing the required amount of power at device start. There are a few ways to get around this problem:
    ) Make sure that you have all of your motherboard, chipset, and USB updates available for your system installed.
    2) Go into Device Manager/Uni'versal Serial Bus Controllers and double click on one of your USB root hubs (or USB 2.0 root hub). Go to the power management tab and take the checkmark out of the top option that says to allow Windows to disable power to the device. Repeat this for all the root hubs.
    3) If none of the others work, then you will want to try the card on another system, or with a powered USB hub to ensure that there is no problem with the sound device itself. If it works on another system then you will want to try it with a powered USB hub on the system in question.

  • I have a samsung 32gb sdhc micro card class 10 but my mac runningosx 10.9.1 maverick does not read/recognise the card at all

    I have a Samsung 32GB sdhc class 10 micro card but my mac(intel) running OSX 10.9.1 maverick does neither read or recognise the card apple have no answer?

    I have the same problem with a 32GB SanDisk card. In fact, I have the same problem with all my SDHC cards—none of them are recognised by Mavericks (10.9.2 here). I'm on an early 2011 MBP.
    In order to get images and video from my camera I have to tether it and upload via the camera.
    Prior to Mavericks I was on Lion, where the same SDHC cards mounted with no problems.

  • Windows does not recognize ipod whatsoever

    This is so frustrating.
    I just bought a new ipod video after giving up on my old ipod.
    Windows does not recognize the new ipod at all, not even as an extra drive. I'm tried uninstalling and reinstalling everything, restoring the ipod, connecting to different ports. No such luck. I've read up on the past posts concerning this problem with no luck.
    Can anyone help me?

    here's a bit here's what microsotft says:
    To resolve this problem, delete the UpperFilters registry value and the LowerFilters registry value. These values may cause access problems. To do this, follow these steps: 1. Click Start, click Run, type regedit , and then click OK.
    2. Locate and then click the UpperFilters registry value. This value is located in the following registry subkey:
    HKEYLOCALMACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Class\{4D36E980-E325 11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318}
    3. On the Edit menu, click Delete, and then click OK.
    4. Locate and then click the LowerFilters registry value. This value is located in the following registry subkey:
    HKEYLOCALMACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Class\4D36E967-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10 318}
    5. On the Edit menu, click Delete, and then click OK.
    6. Exit Registry Editor.
    7. Restart the computer.
    it worked perfectly for me!make sure to follow the directions. it's easy and resolves many Windows XP problems related to ipods. for more info try microsoft help and support and just serch for ipod. it list a bit more info there. it doesn't say anything about reinstalling the apple software, but just to be thorough i unistalled itunes and quicktime before anything just to start with a clean slate, then reinstalled them from my ipod disk after the restart. then i downloaded all the updates from apple. my ipod has never worked better. good luck. theres no link to the page just search for ipod in windows help and support for exact wording

    No.
    Apple can do nothing.
    You cannot block it from being "registered".
    If you did not set up find my ipad before it was lost, then there is nothing you can do but change your passwords.

  • Windows does not recognize my BlackBerry

    I have a new BlackBerry Curve 8530 from Boost Mobile, it is running v5.0.0.654 (Bundle 1108, Platform 4.2.0.298) I installed the Desktop Manager that came with the phone, once I started it - it updated to the lates version (6.0.1) I have a 4gig micro sd card installed (not the original) Everything works fine other than when I connect the phone to my pc. Windows does not recognize my phone in explorer - it does see it in the device manager along with an yellow exclamation point under mass storage device - my pc is running windows 7 ultimate 64 bit - I have tried BlackBerry Media Sync (3.0) and BlackBerry Desktop Manager both with the same end result. I have tried different USB ports, i have yet to try a different cable as this one does charge the phone when connected to the pc. I have yet to try another pc, I am not worried about syncing my contacts or email settings,,,i would just like to transfer music and video....I have the mass storage mode on and the media transfer protocol on, i have the auto enable MSM set to prompt so I can choose when connected. I work in the IT field so the fact that I can not figure this out on my own is rather frustrating.....any help so that i can resolve this issue will be greatly appreciated.
    Thank you -

    Are you using the cord that was supplied with your phone?  Some USB cords transmit power but not data and that could be the case here.  And I'm not talking about a cord that came with any BlackBerry phone, I'm talking about the cord that came with YOUR Q10.
    Cheers.

  • Want to upgrade to lastest version - help/about Firefox window does not show "upgrade" as in instructions.

    I want to upgrade to latest version but -Help/About Firefox- window does not show "upgrade" as in the instructions. I cannot find an "upgrade" function anywhere else. How do I upgrade? The version I have is -18.0.1- it came with this used computer.
    I believe this computer was hacked. Word started doing very strange things. We wiped the hard drive and reloaded everything as it was originally when I bought it. I am now getting hacked online.
    They originally got into one of my credit cards last fall. That is when this all started. They got my AOL email address. They also got the credit card current balance, minimum payment, due date and then even the payment amount. They got into my Barnes & Noble account and now checkout does not work. Now I believe they have gotten into my AOL account - one thing after another has started going wrong. I cannot change that AOL user id/email address since it is the master and I would lose about 15 years of "stuff".
    The folks that sold me this computer told me to use a free version of an antivirus. I am very unhappy with it. I never had ANY trouble when I used TrendMicro's expense products. Those folks also told me to use Firefox, since AOL uses Internet Explorer - which I already knew is like Swiss cheese.
    Now, I cannot seem to get an upgrade of Firefox. Is this also a hack?
    Please help any way you can. Thank you for your time.

    It's probably just the Firefox updater having some problems. go to www.getfirefox.com and download Firefox 20.0.1

  • After connecting my Sony camcorder to imac (Snow Leopard) to import a video the import window does not open. I have imported videos from the sam camcorder successfully before. What could have happened? Puzzled)

    After connecting my Sony camcorder to Imac (Snow Leopard) to import a video to imovie 09 the import window does not open. In the past I have successfully imported videos from the same camcorder. What could have happened? Puzzled

    Oh my! Obviously, I don't know what I'm doing. But I do know that my goal was to do both---backup AND free some space. My iMAc is old (2006) and I upgraded it a year or so ago to Snow Leopard. I didn't think I had the capability of backing up without an external drive, but  maybe I do since I upgraded. Do I?
    But I bought this My Book mostly for freeing space because I like to make cards in Photoshop and I'm forever running out of space when I get too many layers (don't really know what I'm doing there, either).
    Is there some way that I can rectify my mistakes and start all over?
    Thank you so much for  beng so prompt with your reply and patient with mine. I tried for so long to see the dialog box with the library listings. When I launched iPhoto, even with holding down the Option key, it kept immediately launching into the full screen. Finally, after an hour of doing it over and over again, it worked when I held the key down for 5 minutes. Then when I was typing my reply, I kept getting a message to "Request Time Out." Didn't know how to do that, so kept hitting the OK button and kept typing for another half minute. Finally, when ready to send, Safari couldn't do it. "Try again" exasperated me until I realized I would have to begin again and use Firefox. When I got there and ready to type, I got the message  that my message had been retrienved and did I want to use it?!!
    So your kindness is very much appreciated.

  • Mail window does not close anymore

    When I press the red dot or type CMD-W, the mail window does not close anymore. It just stays open, everything else works as usual. Any ideas, how to close the window again?
    TIA

    Look at the bottom frame of the Mail window; it may display a small dot thingie in the middle of its bar, something like this -
    If so, try clicking on that dot and dragging upward.
    If that works, you should have both panes present again. You can adjust the size of the window as a whole by dragging the bottom-right corner (where the hash marks are).

  • Mail Viewer Window Does Not Open on Launch. Mail Will Not Quit. MAIL BADGER

    <UPDATE> After detailing all of the problems below, I discovered that trashing the Mail Badger bundle solved all of the below problems. I am still posting this just in case anybody else has this problem.
    Problems:
    1. When opening mail.app, the program opens, but it does not launch a Viewer Window. I can open a viewer window manually from the File menu, however.
    2. When quitting mail.app, it will not quit. It does not matter whether I hit command-Q, or Mail>Quit Mail, or right-click on dock icon and click Quit. The only way for me to quit is Force Quit. No matter what Quit command I execute, nothing happens. The Viewer Window does not close. (The Viewer Window will close on command, however, either by clicking the red 'x' or by command-W, or by File>Close.
    3. Cannot send mail from mail.app. Upon clicking "send" on a new email, it just goes to the Outbox and sits there forever. I can try sending the email again from the Outbox, but nothing happens. (I have 4 gmail accounts, with a couple thousand messages between them. There are no problems with port configurations or smtp servers or anything like that - I am fairly certain anyway because nothing has changed w/ regard to the account settings between the time it was working and the time it stopped working.)
    4. After minimizing the Viewer Window, clicking on the mail.app dock icon does not restore the Viewer Window. The only way to restore the Viewer Window is to click on the Viewer window itself in the dock, rather than clicking on the application icon.
    Notes: I have installed 10.4.10. I have also installed Safari Beta 3.0.2
    I previously installed Safari Beta 3.0, then uninstalled it and upgraded to 3.0.2. I don't recall when the problems started, (under 3.0 or 3.0.2), but they all happened at the same time (rather than one at a time).
    I have uninstalled Safari 3 and reverted to Safari 2, but this does not fix the problems.
    I have repaired disk permissions.
    I have booted from the OS X Install disk and repaired my startup disk.
    I have not had any problems with Safari 3 "hanging" on install, thus corrupting the WebKit, as described in other threads.

    I had the same issue and resolution. Spotlight search for "Mail Badger" and deleting everything resolves the issue.
    I'm also running Safari 3.0.2 and 10.4.10...
    I've emailed the developer to let him know about it..

  • Lightroom window behavior Not like all other Mac apps

    Please Fix This:
    When I click on the red button while in Lightroom (at the top of the window on the left, ref: the three buttons: red, yellow and green) it quits Lightroom.
    This button usually (always) just closes the open window and does not shut down the app in all CS apps and all other apps I've ever known of on the Mac. This needs to be fixed to make Lightroom conform in behavior to other Macintosh applications.
    Thanks,
    Ken

    Seriously, you need to think of Lightroom as a different sort of application.
    It's not an image manipulation app like Photoshop and it;s not s simple lite–duty app like iCal. If you reduce your expectations on what you "think" Lightroom "should be doing, you'll end up being less frustrated....
    Lightroom's main function is keeping track where the fu%&#  are your images...
    When the Michael & Seth show becomes available later this summer, you'll see just how important "where the fuc&$%# are my images" can become...
    :~)

  • Windows says "device is not functioning" and "Windows does not recognize"

    I lost my USB dock connector cable for my ipod. I just went out today and bought a brand new "Cygnett GrooveLink Strech Retractable USB Cable for iPod". I was pumped when I came home to finally be able to add music to my ipod again, but alas when I plug the iPod in, Windows pops up saying that the device is not functional and that Windows does not recognize it. I tried everything from rebooting the iPod to re-downloading iTunes and iPod updater. After searching this site for the past few hours, I figured I'd try and possibly find some real answers here. Please Help!!

    Hey everyone,
    I had the same problems all of you are having. I
    just got a 5th generation video ipod. For a few
    days, my computer a) wouldn't recognize it; b) froze
    up when I connected it; c) mistook it for a mass
    storage device ("drive E"). I bought a USB 2.0
    notebook card which didn't work either and actually
    seemed to make the problem worse because when I
    connected the iPod to it my computer froze up.
    I was very confused because my new iPod worked on my
    brother's computer--which is much older than mine but
    still recognized the iPod and connected to it.
    Then I noticed that my brother's computer is running
    an older version of the ipod software. I used his
    disk to install "Ipod Updater 2005-06-26" rather than
    the new version of the software on the Apple Web
    site. Then I plugged my iPod into a USB 1.1 port.
    To my surprise, my computer finally recognized the
    iPod and is now loading music onto it. I cannot
    believe this worked. I wonder if the latest version
    of the software is faulty in some way.
    Try it! I hope it will work for you too. You will
    need an older version of the iPod updater software,
    so borrow it from a friend with an older ipod.
    I am having this problem also...It will work fine on the 1.1 but when i plug it into the 2.0 it has trouble recognizing it...
