Audigy 2 Value - No sound after installat

Hi!
I recently bought a new SB Audigy 2 Value card. After installation there were no sound. I read somewhere its hardly advice to reinstall operation system (XP with SP2) and then install the soundcard. I did this and I downloaded the driver update too, but unfortunately I didn't hear any sound. (According the diagnostic program everything is passed)
What should be the problem?
System spec:
Abit BH7
Intel P4 ,8 Ghz
52 MB Ram
Sapphire Ati Radeon 9200
SB Audigy 2 Value

I had the same problem. I ordered a vaio recovery cd for my vaio and wiped the c: partition clean and started over. When I started to prepare for my Audigy 2 value installation...
I didn't uninstall any sound drivers. I just disabled the onboard audio before installation and then I installed the sound card along with the drivers included on the cd-- it worked! Afterwards, I started to install all the other stuff like my drivers for the video card, etc.
Not sure if that hel
ps.
Especially considering that I'm running into other problems now that I think may be related to the sound card itself.
If you have time and the patience. You could put aside some time to start over if you're desperate like I was. It took me about two hours to get everything back to the way it was with some backup data and whatnot.

Difference between audigy value and sound blas

Since i am unable to find comparisions between soundblaster 24bit and AudigyValue in site , Anyone can give me the difference between these two ?

Other than the name, not much. Both cards lack the EMU0K/2 chip, and have to do all processing in software (cpu processing instead of on the card). Oh yeah and the Audigy SE has newer drivers than the Value (and will probably install on the SB 24 bit).
All things considering if you are looking at a card for gaming (or just about anything else) avoid both of them.

Audigy 2 - No Sound after reinstall with latest drivers

I have reinstalled my harddri've and as part of that had to reinstall my soundcard (Audigy2). This is an old Dell system for the kids to play around with. However I can't get it to work. Initially the Audio console kept defaulting to Headphones. I have clicked off the sync with Windows and now both are on 5., but still no sound.
No conflicts or anything, speakers are connected (and always worked well before this), not set to digital output,
Any idea anybody?

PieterVL,
Is this a Dell OEM card? Do you have an installation CD for it's If so, did you cancel out of installing the Windows driver and install the driver from the CD?

Everything seems to be OK so it's propably the drivers for your modem that is causing the issue. Just try if updating them helps anything.
Also, you can turn the MPU-40 (onboard MIDI/Game port) if you dont need it.

Creative Sound Blaster Audigy Value/SE/LS Driver 01.04.0

Creative Sound Blaster Audigy Value/SE/LS and Sound Blaster Li've! 24-bit Vista Beta Driver 0.04.0055
Yeah, 32-bit, wooo.
When will a 64-bit version be available?

Has anyone tried the "AMD64" Driver for the Audigy Value (I assume this is the SE?) that is on the bundled CD?
I tried different driversets from the download/support site to no avail.
I didn't think about the CD driver until I got to work this morning.
Really wishing I picked up the Li've! (yesterday) instead of the Audigy Value now
...expected this card to have a better chance, especially with "x64 drivers" on the box.
Oh well, I'll give it one more shot tonight with those CD drivers... hopefully something will work.Message Edited by abz on 2-07-200604:08 PM

Windows Vista vs. Sound Blaster Audigy Value = Problem

I am facing problems with SoundBlaster Audigy Value when using it with Windows Vista. However i have downloaded and installed latest drivers (Version No. - SB24_VTDRV_LB__04_0077) supporting this card but still it is functioning as good as it worked with windows XP .
Prob # : I can hear sound from my TV Tuner device but cannot perform recording , an error ("Cannot render audio capture system") is generated whenever i try to do so. I also tried to set recording control of my Tv Tuner device to sound card's "line in" parameter as i used to do in XP but in Vista my device shows nothing. Why ?
Prob # 2: Can you tell me where I can find "creative graphic equalizer" for this card which supports windows Vista or please provide a link to download it's
Prob # 3: Why we cannot enable "Bass Boost" using new Creative Audio Console while using Creative Inspire 4400 (4. Channel Speakers) like i used to do in windows XP ?
I will be extremely thankful to you if you please provide a solution to these problems.
Thank You........

altho i tried this with audigy se u might wanna check this

SoundBlaster Audigy Value: Delay and echoing of sound output from head

I'm having problems with the sound output of my voice when chatting using a headset.. I can hear echoes and there are delays occasionally. I first thought the problem was with the headset, and so I changed it. However, the problem persists!
When I plugged my headset in my laptop instead of the desktop with the Audigy Value installed, I didn't encounter any problems at all with the sound. So I thought the problem is with the Audigy Value souncard.
What could be causing these problems?

You need set the ASIO latency through CT ASIO panel and not through Audition settings. ASIO Panel has only settings as milliseconds so if you select 10 or lower value your delay problems should be fixed.

SB Audigy Value CMSS Successfully Enabled in Vista, if you call it CMSS

I've been trying to enable CMSS (at least hear sound from all of the 4 speakers) for a long time and finally successed but in a very strange way.
Steps written below are spesific to my system (SB Audigy Value, Onboard Realtek ALC 850) but can? work similar way on others i guess. For SB Audigy Value 6 Feb. Vista drivers are installed. U can use old XP drivers as explained in the forum too.
I've been using my onboard audio device (realtek ac97) since I can't enable cmss on SB Audigy Value, so Realtek AC97 audio drivers were installed on my system. You can download Realtek AC97 audio drivers? from [url=ftp://202.65.94.22/pc/audio/623_Vista_APO.zip">ftp://202.65.94.22/pc/audio/623_Vista_APO.zip[/url]
Download and install it (first enable the device from bios if you haven't)
After installing the drivers,
-) Open "Playback Devices/Speakers(Realtek A'97 Audio)/Properties" window and open "Enhancements" tab.
2-)There's a "Speaker Fill" effect there. U can take sound from all speakers if u enable it on Realtek AC97 device. And let's import this to our SB Audigy Value device. I say "Import" because i noticed that?"Enhancements" tab is actually a set of registry entries which points to some features from Realtek device. So,
3-) Open registry editor. Go to
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\Curr entVersion\MMDevices\Audio\Render\
Under the Render key the playback devices are listed as some numbers and letters like,
{50a7cf0-aad0-444c-a56b-ce655444d}
4-) U have to find your own device (realtek speakers) , for instance my device is represented by {50a7cf0-aad0-444c-a56b-ce655444d}.
(This is for Realtek ALC 850 model, may be different for other models?I guess)
5-) Under {50a7cf0-aad0-444c-a56b-ce655444d} key you can see "FxProperties" Key. Rightclick on it and export to a file. Save it as RealtekCMSS.reg for instance.
6-) Then find your SB Audigy Value Speakers device. (ES/LS whatever...)
Mine is {5ecbbccc-eca-446-aa2-a7390cf094f6}.
7-) Rightclick on it and select "Permissions"
Go to Advanced/Owner, and change the owner to administrators.
(Don't forget to select "Replace owner on subcontainers and objects)
8-) On "Permissions for {5ecbbccc-eca-446-aa2-a7390cf094f6}" window select "Administrators"
and select "Full Control" to allow. Then click OK.
9-)Close registry editor and open RealtekCMSS.reg in notepad.
0-) Replace {50a7cf0-aad0-444c-a56b-ce655444d}
????to {5ecbbccc-eca-446-aa2-a7390cf094f6} using replace function.
-)Save the file as SBAudigyCMSS.reg and execute it.
2-)Now go to
"Playback Devices/Speakers(SB Audigy)/Properties" and you'll see "Enhancements" tab.
3-)In "Enhancements" tab enable "Speaker Fill"
Open an mp3 and test your speakers. Other effects work too.
From now on you can disable your AC97 device from bios. But don't uninstall Realtek software.

The previous post is inaccurate:? CMSS includes many modes, which will work depending on the speaker configuration. This means that CMSS set?to ON on 5. speakers is not the same as CMSS on Headphones. The selection is done automatically, depending on your selected speaker configuration. For example CMSS on headphones uses HRTFs to produce the effect, while on multi-speaker systems it simply maps and pans the sound. From my experience, CMSS works?good on headphones, not only for games, but for music as well. It expands the soundfield, where on simple stereo and headphones you normally hear the sound inside your head. My opinion is, that CMSS sounds much better on headphones than on speaker systems.

Help needed with Audigy Value! Please he

I just bought the sound blaster audigy value sound card so after disabling the onboard sound, i installed the card and the softwares and drivers. What happened was that the speakers were only making sounds from the woofer and the front center speaker, the other 4 speakers were transmitting no noise at all. I checked the device manager to see if the audigy value card was to be shown as working properly, and it was.
In a state of I-should-find-something-on-the-net-to-help-me state, I downloaded the new official drivers from this creative website, opened it but a message appeared that "it has not detected any audigy hardware". (there's sound but only from the woofer and the center speaker).
I have a creative 5. inspire 5200 series. Do you guys think there's a problem with my sound card, my speakers or the configurations of the cables or some driver thing.
Any help will be appreciated and thanked.

Have you
- connected cables properly?
- set speakers to 5. (on speaker settings panel)?
- disabled/enabled CMSS
---- (see http://forums.creative.com/creativelabs/board/message?board.id=soundblaster&message.id=2563)

Audigy4 or Audigy Value for 2.1 se

Hello all,
I dont know much about sound cards.
Basicly, im using my pc as a home media pc to watch dvds and listen to music in the living room.
I have z-2300 logitech 2. speakers and im after replacing the onboard sound to either one of these cards.
I just want to know is it worth paying twice as much for the audigy4 over the audigy value for these 2. speakers. Will there be any difference between the 2 cards for my setup??thanks in advance-Brendan

2. speaker setups use only one connection, so you would connect via the front LR output (should be the green colored one). Only with surround setups (such as 5.) does teh sub (LFE) get it's own channel.

Severe Jitter/Glitches with Audigy Value/SE in Windows 7 64bit

Hello all,
Im experiencing a severe sound jitter and random "clicks" in windows 7 when playing music and using the computer for browsing.
I didnt notice this problem before because i used to keep my computer idle while doing other stuff when playing music.
the sound plays as if it "slows down" or something when doing random activities on the computer
My setup is
Intel Core 2 Duo E6550
4GB DDR2 800 MHZ
Creative Sound Blaster Audigy Value/SE
Windows 7 64BIT
Gefore 8880GT
I use winamp for playback.
Im using the latest drivers from the creative site.
Is there anything I can do?
The sound so

Thanks for the reply jmacguire.
I'm using default values: 6 bit, 48000 hz (DVD Quality)
Which one do you recommend with the SB Audigy SE?
The sound distorts when listening music in youtube or other flash webpages, both in normal and in HQ settings.
I have tried almost everything. I think the drivers downoladed for Windows 7 works better.
Then the Autoupdate function downloaded some new drivers (version .0090 I think) and it screwed up the sound on the web.

Unfortunately if you read the release notes for the Vista compatible driver it tells you not to use it on your particular sound card ;(?http://us.creative.com/support/downl...rtype=&x=2&y=7?Notes:
DO NOT?install this driver for Sound Blaster Li've! 24-bit, Sound Blaster Audigy LS, Sound Blaster Audigy SE, or Sound Blaster Audigy Value.<However when you tell the site you have an Audigy Value card it directs you to these incompatible drivers
go go Creative
