Audigy value Card: Getting it to work prope

I recently purchased a Creative Sound Blaster Audigy Value (24-bit) card and am trying to install it on my system. The card does get installed but the sound comes in only one speaker, the other one remains as dead as a wooden log. I checked the speakers on my laptop and they work just fine.
Currently I have a two-speaker set so is that an issue?
I've tried installing the driver from the CD that came with the device and also using Windows Update, the result is the same, sound comes only from one speaker.
Is the installation so complex for everyone or is it just me?

I think you're best choice is to work within your school's
administration to resolve 'why' it's blocked. That's the right
thing.

My PC using Intel D95GAV M/B, 3.2GHz with XpSP2. On-board sound ok. Recently installed SB Audigy Value card. It is working perfectly. But with that card I can't use any modem function, any time if I dial or connecting to Internet or Outlook my PC gets re-boots. I already disabled on-board audio. different PCI slot tried. Then I replaced the Audigy card. Replaced the Modem. Audigy Value card tried with another 3 PCs. all are facing the same problem.

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

New Audigy Value card completely nonfunctional in windows server 2

Hi all,
I just bought a new Creative Audigy Value card for use in a windows server 2008 system that will control the electronic school bells system in the academy I work at. It's desperately important that we get a sound working on this server so that the bells can ring again.
Anyway, so here's the problem - the sound card, once installed, says that it is installed properly (i've used x64 vista drivers .0077 and .0065A from creative's website, installed and reinstalled several times) but in the vista system tray, it just shows the speaker with the X on it. When you click "go to mixer" it says "there are no audio devices installed."
In the audio properties, you can see the icon for the "sound blaster audigy", but although you can SEE the buttons for "configure" and "test" - clicking on them yields nothing at all.
I'm really at my wit's end here. The school needs its bell system, which this server plays through it's sound card. What can i do to get this sound card working like it's supposed to be? any ideas?

Yes, well, the box in the store had a sticker on it that said it was compatible with Windows Vista 64bit and 32bit, so I assumed that a 64bit server would be fine for it, but perhaps my assumption was incorrect.
At least if you tell me, that you're 00% sure that this card is not compatible with Server 2008, I will be able to move on and look for something else and use this card for a workstation instead.
As for the first commenter - thanks, but yeah I had already made sure that both the audio service and audio endpoint driver were automatically starting up with the server, so that's not the issue.
So, Mr/Ms Creative Moderator - I checked the page and it does not specifically mention Server 2008, just Vista. Can you let me know for sure that this card is not compatible? If you can tell me no, at least I can write it off as a stupid mistake. If you tell me that it should work though, I feel like I will have to keep trying to force this one to work.
Thanks!

[Solved] Can't get sound to work proper

Hey
I use KDE4 with KMix. I have 5.1 Optical sound.
When I enter Audio Setup in KMix and test the "hw: 0,1" option I get playback.
But I haven't gottten any sound except that. Tried a video in MPlayer and Youtube video in Firefox.
I'm still abit new to Arch and linux.
Also tried adding

type equal;
pcm.plugequal {
type equal;
# Modify the line below if you do not
# want to use sound card 0.
#slave.pcm "plughw:0,0";
#by default we want to play from more sources at time:
slave.pcm "plug:dmix";
#pcm.equal {
# Or if you want the equalizer to be your
# default soundcard comment the following
# line and uncomment the above line.
pcm.!default {
type plug;
slave.pcm plugequal;
pcm.eq {
type ladspa
# The output from the EQ can either go direct to a hardware device
# (if you have a hardware mixer, e.g. SBLive/Audigy) or it can go
# to the software mixer shown here.
#slave.pcm "plughw:0,0"
slave.pcm "plug:dmix"
# Sometimes you may need to specify the path to the plugins,

Did what you said. PCM was the only one muted.
Oddly, I recently started having the opposite problem. KDE startup and other systems sounds have stopped playing. All my other sound (mplayer, flash, etc) work fine. I can play the startup sound fine when opening it via dolphin. It just doesn't play on startup, or any other system sound. I know this happened after a recent update but I am not sure what or when caused it. Startup sound isn't that important to me but fixing it is. No luck so far.

SB Audigy Value Windows XP applications All functions includin What U Hear working Proper

I have SB Audigy Value Card (SE/LS/ Li've 24 bit)Windows Vista 32 bit SP Classic Windows XP applications, Creative EAX SettingsCreative Graphic EqualizerCreative Speaker SettingsDevice Control And XP Drivers 5.2..54 Driver Date: 3.06.2007 Digitally Signed All the settings including "What u Hear" function work flawlessly under 4. system. (I didn't try 5./7. but I think it should work) I just mixed the applications from old and new driver packages and tricked the set-up program to install the XP drivers instead. I'm not a sound expert but I'm much more satisfied with tihs driver especially while listenig to music. I didn't try it with any games so I don't know. Download Link:http://rapidshare.com/files/9395098/...e0077.exe.html All the files included in this package are Creative's property.

I've spent ages searching the forums and can find other people who have experienced the problem but have yet found a fix. They've also explained the problem better so I'll try and make this a little clearer also.
When using Ventrillo first people can hear me fine in Ventrillo but an awful sound (described as the sound of 000 demons) in Counter Strike.<
When using CS first people can hear me fine in Counter Strike but the screeching sound is heard in Ventrillo.<

Audigy Value and Digital Out probl

I read the faq.
I have the Audigy Value card with the digital I/O mini-jack. I tried using a standard optical cable with an adapter mini-jack "cap" to pop on one end to plug into the sound card, and the other end into my digital in on my stereo. I still can't get any sound, is there some setting I am missing.
I pop in my Hercules sound card that has a normal type optical out and everything works fine without me messing with it, so I know it isn't the stereo input.

Fuzzylogic,
These articles should help explain what is going on:

This problem is driving me insane!!!I had issues with my onboard sound (DFI AD77 mobo) in my HTPC so I bought an Audigy Value card hoping I'd have no problems...ha ha..Although the card and drivers seem to install ok, I have no sound at all.

I have disabled onboard sound, tried a few different pci slots, used the latest creative drivers, updated chipset drivers...everything!!!! Device manager is showing the card and everything seems ok ie. drivers are installed, no exclamation marks, etc?Can someone pleeeeease offer some more advice on what I can try

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)
- set audio HW acceleration (Windows Audio settings)?

Audigy Value questi

I'm thinking of purchasing an Audigy Value card, but I'm concerned about the driver support.
Are the drivers on the disk the only drivers you can use? Are there newer drivers (2005.. ) that can be used?
And does it support EAX 2.0 ?
I've reached the point where my onboard audio just isn't good enough, only the Audigy Value and SB! Li've 24-bit are in my price range, what should I be looking for?
As I am in Australia I cannot use such sites as NewEgg and my selection is limited.

Unfortunately I'm talking about the '...Sound Blaster Audigy Value .. 7.' not the Audigy2 Value
Link to the creative page :http://asia.creative.com/products/pr...duct=489&nav=0There's no useful information and it's pretty much blank. The specifications page tells me nothing. The 2005 beta drivers don't say it supports the 'Audigy Value' card.

Can't get 5.1 working on Audigy 2

Hi all
I've recently gotten myself an improved Graphics card that allows me to watch hi-def MKV files via Media Player Classic Homecinema. I can't get the surround sound working on them though. I've had a Creative Audigy 2 card for years linked up to an Inspire 6.1 system. I've gotta be honest though, I've always just had the CMSS 3D option activated so, although all the speakers have always worked, it's never been true surround sound. How on earth do I configure everything to get it all working correctly? Is it maybe the Media Player software that's at fault?
Can anyone help...

brianlong,
The link is correct to link you to the main Knowledgebase page. You will need to type in 'SID4858' in the Search by Keyword section. If you are unable to access the link, the Knowledgebase is also located at the 'Support' section at the top of the drop-down menu.
Or type in 'front' as the keyword and look under 'Speaker test only outputs from two front speakers' listing.

Audigy 2 Value card starting to

Well like clockwork, my second Audigy 2 Value card is starting down the path of death. I've had this second one for close to 6 months, and like the first one I had when it started dying, mysteriously changed the speaker settings from 5. to 2.. My first Audigy 2 Value card did this after about 4 to 5 months, and then popping and crackling came. I don't hold any breath that this, my second Audigy 2 Value card will hold the speaker settings and won't have popping and crackling sooner or later. I don't get this one bit, as I've just recently built a dual core AMD machine and here are the specs. ASUS A8R-MVPAMD Athlon 4200+ X22GB of PC3200 memoryATI Radeon X800XTSB Audigy 2 Value card20GB Western Digital SATA harddri've, & a 200GB Western Digital Serial ATA harddri'veLG 6X DVDROM, and an LG DVDREWRITERWindowsXP Service Pack 2 with all updates?I've checked, and I'm using the January drivers for my SB Audigy 2 Value card, and for all my other hardware, including the ULi serial ATA controller on the motherboard. I just can't figure out why after close to 6 months, that on my second Audigy 2 Value card, it has started dying like the first one. I'm about ready to bail out entirely on Creative Labs soundcards.

AFAIK, common PC mic inputs are mono, usually plus condensor power (I think it's tip=signal, ring=power, sleeve=ground). This doesn't make a stereo mic "useless," but you'd have to use only one of its signals and rig up an adapter of some sort to use one.
Perhaps you can enlighten me about what a stereo mic is by industry practices where they are commonly found? It is 2 mono mics in a package, or a mono mic with duplicated outputs (for connection convenience I suppose)?
A USB mic probably won't be well-integrated with use of the soundcard. Soundcard mic amps don't have the best reputation for quality. If you're serious, a better approach is probably to either use an external mic preamp, or a mixer mic input, and connect the preamp/mixer line-out to the soundcard line-in.
