Audigy 2 ZS software insists card is not install

I am using WindowsXP SP2 and a 2ZS, and everything was fine until I reinstalled the current audio drivers. The drivers installed properly, both Windows and other programs (DirectX as well) see the card as working and installed properly. EAX works in games, Winamp works as it always has. However all of the Creative Programs such as Surround Mixer, THX console, Speaker settings, all report "no installed hardware" or "no compatible hardware".
The only thing that works is the Audio Console, I can set EAX and CMSS there (I'm using 5. analog). I have done everything, swap slots, used a registry cleaner, even reinstalled Windows (not a full format and install, just an overwrite). I have the original install cd(s), they also report no hardware.
I am pretty knowledgeable in these things and yet I'm stumped. Any ideas? nForce4 SLI, with current chipset drivers, current forceware drivers, everything seems in order, even in the registry, which I have a lot of experience in pruning keys. Driver Cleaner has been applied as well redundantly.
I had one USB audio device as well, the logitech wireless dj, but that has been removed as well, and not yet reinstalled. While I suspected it as being the system default device, it wasn't. Any ideas welcomed...

I tried the cleansweep per your instructions and then re-installed the card. But still have the same problems. Also, a small gray box appears at the top center of the display at startup, like a program tried to run but could not.
Any help would be appreciated.

  • Recently I started having this problem with the Iphone5 IO7 software it says " SIM Card is not Installed" while it fixed the problem by repeated turn on and off but comes again on the second day

    I am sure apple must be working on a patch or an io7 update.  I keep on getting this msg while calling and phone does not receive any incoming calls when it displays a msg saying "SIM card is not installed".  I would appreciate if apple try to resolve this software problem asap.  Thanks

  • My phone blacked out, re-set it and now says my sim card is not installed! Help!

    What do I do if my phone blacked out, then re-set it, but now says my sim card is not installed!

    Honestly it sounds like you purchased a no-contract phone and not an unlocked phone.
    Without the receipt it is impossible to say what was really purchased.  Contact Apple to get a copy of the receipt.  If you did infact purchase an unlocked iPhone, then they will resolve it.
    What model iPhone do you actually have?  Paying $700 for and iPhone 4 would have meant it was purchased approximately 2yrs ago.  Also, there is no 35gb model.
    If it is the iPhone 5, the unlocked version was not available at launch but rather released (online only) on November 30th.  Later it was available in store.

  • IPod software 1.1 will NOT install.

    new ipod nano for Xmas.
    Latest version of software 1.1 will NOT install.
    I get a message saying "new version available", i tell it to install, it extracts, turns ipod on and off, but when it eventually comes back...it says:
    "New version available" and it still has it's own version of 1.0.3 listed.
    I tried Restore with "current(1.0.3)".
    I tried Restore with "new" version.
    Nothing.

    GOT IT TO WORK!
    HOWEVER The way i got it to work was to go to a completely different machine download 1.1 there and apply by hooking up iPod.
    As much as I love my iPOd, there are some serious issues with iTunes + iPod + Windows

    Photoshop 4.0 is not compatible with MAC 10.9.3 . You will face issues as when Photoshop 4.0 was launched there was no MAC Mavericks and Adobe has not tested the version on new MAC OS.
    If you want you can download the latest version of Photoshop CC 2014 and you can use it as a trial for 30 days and you can plan to switch to the latest version.

  • Video card will not install properly

    Hi, I have an HP Pavillion a6120n. I am trying to install a Radion HD 5450 video card (view links below for pc and video card). I have upgraded my psu to an Ultra LSP 750w and disabled the on-board graphics. However, no matter which way I try to install the video card (while running the pc or not) and rebooting, my monitor says "No Signal Detected". Furthermore, when I try to install the software for the video card from the CD, it goes through the entire install process and says that it is complete but the file never shows up in the folder that it is supposed to. Basically, whenever the new video card is attached to the motherboard, the PC doesn't like it and I get no display.
    My BIOS version is 4/20/07. I can change the video setting to [PCI] or [On Board] but nothing more than that, like PCIE. Is there a new BIOS version that I haven't found?
    Should I be looking at a different video card?  Is this one not compatable for some reason?
    Any ideas here? I'm stumped.
    Thanks so much for your help.  Glad HP does this.

    I dont see any reason why that card wont work.
    Make sure the card is seated and the lock on the tail end of the card is engaged.
    PCIe slots are sometimes a little tricky getting seated.
    Also make sure it is not binding against the back plate on the computers chassis
    where the ports come out the back. It sould seat comfortably.

    I have downloaded the latest version of the recommended software directly from the HP support site.  OS is Win7 64 bit. The setup ends in few instants with no error messages but I have not desktop shortcut icons.

Inside Digital Imaging folders I can't found many application files and there isn't the \bin\hpqkygrp.exe application.
    On a pc with windows VISTA and default CD installer evertything works fine.
    I noticed that many files missing from setup, like Common folder. The pc is in a network domain and I launched the setup as both domain user and domain administrator.
    I tried many times in different days/months/updates... please help.

  • F4140 not working. cant remove, software says it's not installed but then wont re-install

    The printer isn't working so I want to remove and re-install BUT the printer is not in Add/Remove Programs (I have XP).  I downloaded the complete install package and tried to uninstall it that way, but the unistall program says nothing is installed.  So I tried to install it but it says the software is already installed and doesn't install anything. I am really stuck this time.  I wish HP had a "cleaner" utility because obviously the registry or something is out of synch.  Please HELP!

    Hey there,
    Here is how you can uninstall using the scrubber that is built into the software. I included both options on how to access the scrubber. Just choose whatever option is easiest for you.
    Option 1: From Original installation CD:
    1. Insert CD into drive, and then cancel the installer
    2. Open My Computer, and then right click on the CD drive and chose open
    3. Open folder Util
    4. Open folder CCC
    5. If you have an HP computer run the L3uninstall.exe. If you have a non-HP computer run the L4uninstall.exe
    6. When the uninstall has completed restart the computer
    7. Run Disk cleanup from Accessories\ System Tools
    8. Download and install the latest version of Adobe flash player
    http://www.adobe.com/support/flashplayer/downloads.html
    9. Download the full feature software and drivers
    http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareDownloadIndex?softwareitem=al-64285-2&cc=us&dlc=en&lc=en&...
    10. Run the download to reinstall the printer
    Option 2: If software was downloaded and extracted to your system:
    1. Type %temp% in the run field
    2. Look for, and open the folder starting with 7z (Example: 7zS2356)
    3. Open folder Util
    4. Open folder CCC
    5. If you have an HP computer run the L3uninstall.exe. If you have a non-HP computer run the L4uninstall.exe
    6. When the uninstall has completed restart the computer
    7. Run Disk cleanup from Accessories\ System Tools
    8. Download and install the latest version of Adobe flash player
    http://www.adobe.com/support/flashplayer/downloads.html
    9. Download the full feature software and drivers
    http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareDownloadIndex?softwareitem=al-64285-2&cc=us&dlc=en&lc=en&...
    10. Run the download to reinstall the printer
    Hope this helps!

  • Error mess  software updates -installer could not install some files in "/"

    I get this message regardless of the software update. Just started today. Has anyone else had this issue? If so, any idea how to fix. Thanks so much in advance!

    There may be an error in the computer's directory, requiring a repair; some kinds
    of errors or damage to the data in the hard drive are not responsive to attempts
    to use the booted Disk Utility version on the OS X Installer disc #1, and while it
    may be worth a try to see if that Disk Utility could at least give it a go, the usual
    kinds of third party disk utilities (if this is the case, a directory error or damage)
    would be along the lines of DiskWarrior, to rebuild or replace a directory.
    The slashmark / usually indicates the mount point, of the internal main hard disk
    drive partition used by the OS X. So, there may be other reasons why the update
    installer does not appear to be working correctly or at all in this matter.
    I've not seen such an error message before; but for general maintenance and
    before any issues would arise, I try and do preventative maintenance; to include
    startup in SafeBoot (shift key held until login screen) and then run Disk Utility to
    'repair disk permissions' on Macintosh HD; then when done, note repair logs.
    And restart the computer normally. {Also, I have & use Titanium Software OnyX
    in its Automation mode every month or two; and choose all checkboxes. This
    is also set to automatically restart when the tasks are completed. + It is free.}
    To start the computer from the Installer disc and run Disk Utility from there,
    involves holding the C key on restart with the OS X install disc #1 in the
    optical drive; and when in the Installer, often a second window where there
    is a main Installer menu bar, there are drop-down menus from clickable words
    across the top bar. Various options are there, and Disk Utility is among them.
    This version of Disk Utility can be used to repair disk, repair disk permissions,
    and also there are other more active tools among its utility features. This is an
    installer, too; with options of several kinds. The Utility can also reformat, etc.
    So be careful in what you choose to run. The repair disk and repair permissions
    are both ones that may be a bit helpful, at least in the process of elimination.
    If the directory is bad, a retail DiskWarrior utility may need to be purchased from
    a Mac-friendly vendor; be sure that DW version covers your OS X system level.
    Good luck & happy computing!

  • I have just tried to upgrade to the new software update and I can no longer access iTunes. I have uninstalled and downloaded the latest software but it will not install. Any help please?

    Download the Windows Installer CleanUp utility from the following page (use one of the links under the "DOWNLOAD LOCATIONS" thingy on the Major Geeks page):
    http://majorgeeks.com/download.php?det=4459
    To install the utility, doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file you downloaded.
    Now run the utility ("Start > All Programs > Windows Install Clean Up"). In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any Bonjour entries and click "Remove", as per the following screenshot:
    Quit out of CleanUp, restart the PC and try another install. Does it go through this time?
