Xfi xtreme gaming - problems with microph

hi, i just bought the xfi xtreme gaming sound blaster. but in the teamspeak, other mates hear there voice with hall, my voice and everything that?s happening on my pc, for example the music i ?play on my computer and the soundeffects in my games and sounds in windows. another problem is that, if i change the sound mode (for example from entertainment mode to gaming mode and back) my mixer settings reset. so what can i do?

i have already checked 'micrphone' in the recording settings. when i go to the xtreme gamer mixer settings, and i select the microphone under 'rec', another line with microphone appears and i don?t know what that mean. a buddy bought the same soundcard and has exactly the same problem. i can fix it for my daily usage (setting the teamspeak voice activation volume a bit louder and the record volume some quieter. but i think if i will record some music with the microphone (i play in a band), the problem will still be there (record all that i hear through my speakers / headphones)
the problem is still there, so i didn?t solve the problem! i just decrease the symptoms!

Xfi-Xtreme Music Problems after updating dri

I recently updated my xtreme music sound card drivers from this website and since my music quality has not been the same. With my headphones off music seems sound poor and while watching movies the sound fades out to the point i cant even hear it. The only way i can fix this is by moving the graphic equalizer to the left or right and then i can hear it again. I also dont seem to get any sound out of my centre speaker but i do with the other 4 around my room. Ive tried reinstalling the new drivers and even the old ones and nothing works. Ive alo tried doing the clean boot and driver uninstallation but i get stuck at the point where i hide all microsoft services and click disable all. For some reason i cant click disable all when microsoft services is clicked. Ive run out of idea's. Any help would bhe appreciated.
Im running windows xp and have never had any problems with sound untill now.
Thanks in adance for any help.

You need a cable that meets the HD audio spec. AC97 is not correct for that card. I've heard of some damage actually being done to some cards by using AC97 on a HD audio header connection. I've also never heard of a case front panel assembly not having the cable as part of it.

Help-Charging problem with MicroPh

Hi,I bought a USB Power Adaptor which connects to the Mains supply and provides a USB interface for charging USB devices. I connected my Zen MicroPhoto' USB cord to this adaptor and set it ON for charging. The battery icon on the player showed charging, but till hours of keeping the charging ON, the player was not charged. I was wondering if the player can only be charged through a computer!!!Please advise... Mayank

To both of you guys heres is the deal:?First of all Im not a pro in? Computers or mp3s or electrician... But I want to help cause if it wasnt for the help I get from forums/the Internet I wont be writing this right now. I have to say that this forums are the WORST I have ever seen for Customer Support and even between the Users, Like yesterday I saw this post in wich this guy was asking for some kind of help("knowlage") and this other guy who replied was with this attitude like "READ THE MANUAL"... thats BS I say. I would like to change that kind of attitude from some of the users of this Forums(they know who they are:smileytongue. Guys,you know we are alone in THIS. You get the classic "Robot" like response from some of the Mods wich some of you guys expect them to help us solve our problems with our mp3s. I dont. And yet some of you appears to me that?dont care?to ?give a guy a hand with their problems. Come on guys lets be more cooperati've and help each another,ok?Now about that charging problem,you didnt gave a link for the adapter or a link for the picture of it but with the description you gave me I can picture it on my head. When I was looking for an adapter for my ZMP I too looked at those kind of power adapter/charger you both mentioned. But I was not confident about those so I went for a creative one from JR.com but then after I placed my order with them I went to Ebay and found this: http://cgi.ebay.com/New-Creative-Lab...QQcmdZViewItem??

Xfi fatality. sound problems with other devi

hello all. just recently bought a xfi fatality card,and im trying to connect it to my xbox 360 to get sound, and thats when the problems start.i have a optical cable from my xbox 360 connector to the optical in on my fatality front panel and some headphones connected to the headphone jack, but i get no sound at all. i have also tried the rca inputs on the front panel but no sound there either.tried to hook up a dvd player to just to test it, but like always no sound. its not my xbox thats faulty?as i've tested it on my stereo. could someone please help me im at a loss and dont know what to do.i've tried to change stuff in console but to no use. thanks for your help and?replys paperman?ps have searched the forum but no luck?

I had this problem to begin with, its just because as default the SPDIF in is muted. If you open the launcher in entertainment mode go to the option where you can the volume to each kind of audio and at the top of the volume slider on some of the devices there is an arrow pointing down. Click on this and choose SPDIF and then unmute it. I'm having a further problem now though as i've got the sound playing from my PS2 but i cant get 5. from it on DVD videos only stereo, any ideas?

Gaming problems with the K7N420

Hi guys - I need some help
I've been running with my K7N420 board from MSI for over a year now with very few problems - but then I've never really stressed it that much.
Last week, I purchased an "oldish" game - Indiana Jones and the Infernal Machine - Oh if I had known how prophetic the title was!
I got help from Lucas Arts initially to check that it would run OK on my W2K OS, and together with info from microsoft on W2K SP1 supporting this game (it was named explicitly) I thought I would have few problems. However ....
Once I got over the initial problems of turning off the virus checker and screensaver, I got into the game and started playing - only to find that on occassions the screen just blanks out as one solid colour - typically the colour of an object I've just picked up. Mostly I can't recover from this and have to CTRL_ALT_DEL out of it.
I am assuming that this may be due to some video incompatiblity with the intergated graphics, but I need some suggestions as to what I should tweak in the nVidia video drivers to get it to work.
Any suggestions (other than to get the latest game The Emperoros Tomb!)
Oh and specs'
MS6373 (K2N420) Bios 2.6
256MB RAM
Windows 2000 SP1
nVidia Unified drivers 2.03
DirectX 8.1
Cheers for your time
Nick

deepknight: Thanks for the suggestions - but it should work with W2K - also, I thought that the unified drivers for Win95/98 weren't up to scratch???
frenchy2K1:
I'll try the detonator - via a different source it has alos been suggested that I try re-installing the unified set 2.03 again, apparently one should remove the old set first before installing the upgrade - this is something I hadn't done...
as for DX9 - it was something I was planning to do, I have been using this game on a Win98 machine (Laptop) with DX8.1, with no problems - so I assumed that DX8.1 was OK???
Games settings - I'll check these tonight (the offending set up is at home, and I'm reading this forum at work...).
What would be sensible settings, could changing these stop it working?
Does this means that changing the driver settings may make a difference? Where do you start trying to sort this??
I've contatced LucasArts tech support, so far I've only got their offiical line which is "This game was not designed with support for Windows 2000...." "Download the latest compatibility updates from microsoft...." "We cannot guarantee it will work...."
I'll try the alt-tab and see what happens
I'm already runnung with SP3
Thanks for helping
Nick
btw
It runs OK on the laptop - but
(a) The screens horrible for gaming
(b) The sounds naff
(c) I got the nForce machine for games, not the Laptop!!!!

Problems with MicroPh

I have went through support knowledgeBase several times but nothing has worked.
First the problem was that the mp3 player stopped connecting to the computer. It happened several times before but it would usually start working again. Then it didn't. I tried rebooting it. Now it doesn't even turn on, it freezes on the Creative screen.
When plugging into the computer it does begin to charge but does not connect to the Creative Media Explorer or Windows Media Player.
I tried Formating and Cleaning it but it doesn't work. If I charge the player fully and choose one of the options it will say, lets say, "formatting..." until the player runs out of batteries. When I turn it back on, nothing changes.
This is VERY frustrating because I had the MicroPhoto for about 6 months when it started happening.
EDIT: I have tried re-installing the hardware. Now in my hardware manager it says "Portable Device" > "MTP Device" which has a yellow exclamation (!) mark. No programs will recognize the player and I cannot update firmware because it tells me the device is connected while it is... here... charging.
HELP!Message Edited by Dorian on 06-7-200706:4 PM

They told me that it was out of warranty but to scan the warranty documents and send them to them to double check and make sure, and if it is within warranty they'll replace it for me, but otherwise I'll have to just either send that for repair (which is around $00) or get a new one. No bloody way would I get another of theirs! Certainly not with the hard dri've anyway, I'd probably consider one with a flash dri've as they sound a lot more stable and my microphoto was brilliant while it was working. But I'm not going to buy one for a long time as I can't afford it... this just really irritates me.

Sound blaster x-fi xtreme gamer - problem with headpho

Hi,I've install the card and i want to use the creative speakers and headphones as well. (seperatly offcourse, but connected together)Is it possible at all to connect both of them together?for instance, creative shows in the manual picture to connect the headphones in line, and the speakers in 2.but i can only hear the speakers or the headphones when i connect them in line ... I thought that i can "program" some jack? ( like in most motherboards) to do that as well, but i saw the the "flexijack" option is all grey and cannot be used. If some one here know/had this problem, i would appreciate some help/advice. Thanks in advance,??

Hi,
Did this happen right out of the box or do you own the card for some time now?
Just in case, please ensure that the sound card is firmly seated on the pci slot.

J2me Gaming : Problem with Creating build(jar) for nokia phones

Hi,
I am having trouble in making a package (jar) for nokia phones. I have been tring using J2ME wireless kit, Eclipse, Nokia development Suite and IBM Device developer but havent been able to make a perfect package out of it.
I have even downloaded the plugins for Eclips but not able to configure it properly. I did every thing according to the specifications. but while building project i get the error "Problem while running the build script ....." .
Overall i want create a jar package and obufuscate that for Nokia phones.Its real urgent. Wud want someone to guide me on all the necessary.
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
yeah I can recommend - get Sun ONE Studio 5, Mobile Edition (http://wwws.sun.com/software/sundev/jde/studio_me/early_access.html). That's pretty much about it (obfuscation included, .JAR file creation in no-time).

Gaming problem with Cool n quiet ?

Hi there,
I've enabled cool'n'quiet in the Bios, because my fan was doing too much noises.
So now in CPU-Z, the multiplier is x5. But the problem is that is STAY at x5 even when i'm playing game like DOOM3 or Half-Life 2.
So it is lagging a lot in the game, but it doesn't crash (thank god).
I wonder why my fan don't ajust itself, because it should right? CPU go 100% but the multiplier and the fan speed stay don't move.
Thanks,
TanGU.

Try enabling cool n'quiet in the bios. I had the same experience when I first built my pc a while ago.
Uh... thanks but, like i said:

Problems with connecting Xfi to a AV-receiver via digital

Hello!
I have serious problems connecting my Soundblaster XFi Xtreme Music to my Harman/Kardon AVR 2000 (AV-Recei'ver), supporting dolby digital and DTS. As the receiver cannot be connected via the 3 other outputs of the XFi (front/rear/center) I do have to connect it via the digital out. Before I bought the XFi I used my onboard-sound, connected to the receiver via optical cable, and everything was doing fine.
For there is no optical out on the XFi I tried to link the digital out of the XFi with the coax-digital-in of my receiver, using a normal coax-cable. Indeed, a sound-signale is transmitted, but as I'm testing my surround speakers, the allocation of the speakers is not correct and the receiver does not work in dolby-digital or DTS mode.
So how do I have to connect both parts, having the receiver get a correct digital signale?
Do I have to use a special cable that deli'vers the correct digital signale?
I have already callen the Creative support hotline, but also got no acceptable answer.
I hope, somebody can help me !

http://creative.com/products/product...y=6&product=49
that product should work for you and me. this is the issue i had......
i'm working on this issue myself as i have an elite pro and it has digital outputs but as we are alll finding out unless its a dts stream like a dvd encoded with it, the digital outputs will not pass 5. audio correctly. i have a harman dpr 2005 i just picked up. when i play games its useless because creatives digital outputs will only stream stereo. and now i have no way to connect the regular analog outputs to my receiver.
this just flat out sux. apparently with computer audio you will read in the links below there is no product that will encode audio other then the soundstorm which is now a dead product into more then 2 channel audio via a digital cable whether coax or fiber. but basically the breakout box posted above will do the same thing the soundstorm does, it just does it at the analog output so you will get a slight loss in quality but will it even be audible. i doubt much at all. its just the best we will get for another year or two.

Microphone Problem SB XFI Xtreme Gamer

& I have a headset that has a microphone. When I plug in the mic, I can't record any sound. I see a red light coming from the port, which leads me to believe that it is set to digital out. How do I change this so it recognizes the analog microphone [email protected]

*Re: Microphone Problem SB XFI Xtreme GamerK Hi necrochaos,
I think this is the same problem I had for a while, which had me pulling my hair out until I found the annoyingly simple solution. Hopefully it'll work for you too.
In the Creative Console Launcher (this is in Game mode, guess it's different for the other two.), open the Mixer tab and then under the slider bar that has "REC"in red, click the little drop down arrow and select microphone. This is all I needed to do I think. Test it with Windows Sound Recorder.
Also in Settings (very bottom-center of the Creative Console Launcher)I noticed that there's a category called "Digital I/O" and under that Flexijack Mode with the option to select between Digital I/O and Mic/Line-In. It's greyed-out on mine but maybe that'll work for you? Hope that hel
ps.

Problems with pacman applet, and advice on a gaming portfolio

Hi
I recently made a pacman applet, im having a few problems with it though, the first time the applet is run on a browser, the ghosts(represented by squares) often dont appear or if they do, they are stuck in walls, this never happens when i run offline on my computer. Is this because the very first time the applet is run, it doesnt load properly, but the second time some of the files are in the cache so it loads fully?
Also everytime i refresh the browser the applet dissapears and is replaced with a blank space and a cross in the top left hand corner, does anyone know the reason for this?
The applet can be found below, if you do decide to play it, please bear in mind what i have said, so it might not load correctly the first time, if this is the case please refresh, or close the broswer and reopen the link! Also you will need to click the applet for it to gain focus before you can move pacman - use the arrow keys the control pacman.

Id also be very gratful for some advice - id like a change in career, ive always wanted to get into gaming, ive had some previous knowledge in java i made a programme that could generate its own poetry in java for my dissatation, but i still never had a huge amount of confidence, and so went into websites.
BUT now i have decided to take the leap back into programming and give it a go, which is why ive made this game.
I thought id make a portfolio and try and apply for a few gaming jobs. This applet took me two weeks to make and it was in my spare time, i am fully aware its not perfect, and it doesnt look great, but i would like to know what people think of it, also how many more games do you think i should make, before i apply for gaming jobs? Does anyone have any advice on what would make a good portfolio for a java gaming job?
Thanks alot, i look forward to what you think of the game, and your advice!

Thanks for getting back to me with that information, i didnt know you could see that information with just a simple right click!
But im afraid that doesnt really help me solve the problem, im not sure what all of that information means! :SI have very little experience with applets, but I can tell you what I would do to debug this (forgive me if you already know this stuff).
Look at the stack trace you get in the Java Console that I posted earlier. Each line contains a method that was called from the method on the previous line. So, java.lang.Thread.run() called sun.applet.AppletPanel.run(), which called Room.init(), etc. Look at the topmost line whose method is something you wrote, not something in the standard Java libraries. In your case it looks like PaintSurface.java (specifically, line 22). Look at what line 22 of PaintSurface.java is doing, it's calling Thread.start(). If you check out the Javadoc for Thread.start(), it says IllegalThreadStateException gets thrown if you call start() on a thread that has already started. So that's your problem. Without looking at your code, I'd assume you want to stop your thread in your applet's destroy() override, and instead of reusing it, create a new one each time init() is called.
Ill try and look into, thanks again though, it gives me somthing to work with :D
Btw when you first ran the applet, did all the ghosts(3) load up correctly?Unfortunately, no. The first time I ran it, there was only 1 ghost (or maybe all 3 overlapping each other?) at the top of the screen, and they never moved. Refreshing once made the game play as I think you want it to. Refreshing a third time gave the dreaded red X.
...oh and just out of curiosity,,, did u have fun playing the game :DSure did.
