Bootcamp Problems - Sound Device Not Detected

I have installed Windows Bootcamp on my Imac8 and everything seems to work perfectly except for the sound. I do not know why it is not working because I have installed Windows XP with Service Pack 3 upgrade and I used the Mac OS X Install Disk 1, which came with my computer to install all the necessary drivers. The sound used to work perfectly a few days ago and I don't know what's wrong.
This is the second time I've partitioned my drive (after transferring and wiping out my first partitioned drive) and the first time I partitioned my drive, the sound worked decently. I've ran the Mac OS X Install Disc 1 over 5 or 6 times and when I install the drivers, the setup installs the Realtek and IDT SigmaTel Drivers. After that didn't give me any sound bar or allow Bootcamp to detect my sound card, I tried installing the RealTek and SigmaTel Drivers separately by opening the Mac OS X Install Disc 1 to browse the different setups and still, nothing. Sound works on the Mac side, but the Windows side is severely lacking. Someone please help me!!

Nevermind, I found out the solution and now my sound works! If anyone has problems with the SP3 on the XP Bootcamp, goto: http://www.techarp.com/showarticle.aspx?artno=490 and follow the instructions. Victory!

    Hello. I sent my WRT1900AC V1 to Linksys four days ago (Monday) via UPS with a RMA. Linksys paid the shipping and everything. The router is still in route, and it should arrive to their offices tomorrow. Once they receive the WRT1900 AC V1, they are going to send me an EA8500 as a replacement. But I have been reading the comments about the EA8500 here in the forum and it seems to have the same problems. I guess the firmware is extremely flawed in both routers (maybe it is almost the same code?). Anyway, I will try the EA8500 and I hope it works. I bought a temporary router from Walmart and I paid $35 for it. It is a Belink N600 DB. I can't believe that a $35 router is working a lot, lot, lot better than my previous $250 WRT1900AC router. Unbelievable. If the EA8500 doesn't work, I'm going to try and get my money back from Linksys, or contact The Consumerist or someone to get my money back and get a Nighthawk instead.

  • Audio device not detected in control panels

    +Audio device not detected in control panelsa I've been using my X-Fi Platinum with Windows 7 64-bit fine for around a month now. Recently I encountered a problem where I couldn't record any sound including talking on Teamspeak. I decided to reinstall the drivers, so I cleaned them out with a driver cleaner tool, and reinstalled. Everything works fine again, but none of the applications will work anymore. They all give an error message about not being able to detect the device. This includes AutoUpdate, Creative Audio Control Panel, and Creative Console Launcher. The card appears to be working correctly everywhere else: Device manager, teamspeak works fine now, windows recorder, guitar rig (guitar amp emulator), dx diag, all working well.
    I also tried installing Daniel_K's driver pack to no avail.
    Any ideas?
    Thanks,
    Glorfindel

    /Hi Glorfindel,
    Did?you?reinstall the applications from the installation cd?
    Download and install the latest applications from our support site to see if it helps, click on the link and select your product. Note that some of the applications are not available on Windows 7.

  • M-audio device not detected

    I keep getting this message no matter what I do. Every time I try to op the M-audio firewire software, PT m-powered 7, I always get that message. "m-audio device not detected on this mac". I can't figure it out.

    Is the device turned on? The blue light should be solid blue (not flashing).
    If it never goes solid blue, try a different cable, try using the adapter power (not bus power). Run System Profiler and check that your firewire bus does not say "No information found". Make sure you have the latest drivers installed. Is the audio device shown in the System Preferences -> Sound drivers? Is the audio device one of the few compatible ones with PT M-Powered?
    Never hot plug the firewire cable, especially if any device is bus powered.
    See where that lot gets you...

  • X-fi fatal1ty device not detected when running speaker selection wizard

    Gx-fi fatalty device not detected when running speaker selection wizard? ?
    System is a custom build, based off an ASUS A8N-SLI Premium, with two GTX7800 display cards. in a SLI configuration
    Fresh installation fo Windows XP Profesional with SP3 slipstreamed.
    Origional CD fails to detect the card, claiming a supported device is not present.
    This card has worked prevously, and is verified as fully functional in windows Vista. ?
    Please note Windows Vista can not be used.
    I have tried about 30 different versions of the drivers (each on a clean installation) and used both clean and dirty boots, and nothing is working.
    Before anyone points me at other threads in this forum, please note i have been scouring this forum for the past week trying every sugestion there is, and I have raised a ticket with Creative (who despite the prommise of a 2 day responce, have yet to respond)
    I have tired multiple versions of the NForce drivers, NVidia display drivers, Creative Drivers, Bios updates, Chipset hacks and more.
    does anyone hav a sugestion that is not already posted on this forum.

    Tried it on one of the spare PC's in the house earlier (Nforce 2 based) - still no recognition of the card whatsoever, it's as if it doesn't exist.
    I'm guessing that the card is pretty much toasted eh?

  • Audigy 2 ZS: Stero Sound, but not device not detect

    I'm using an Audigy 2 ZS card, driver version 5.2..442 with Windows XP.
    The card produces stereo sound, but nothing in the other speakers in my 5. setup.
    When I try to load up the Creative Speaker Settings, I got a 'Speaker Settings' error dialog stating "The audio device supported by this application is not detected."
    There are no apparent problems with the device when checking the device manager.
    Thanks for any help.

    I solved my problem by changing to driver version 5.2.3.00. Creative Applications such as speaker settings load without error messages, and sound is 5., not just stero.

  • *SOLVED* Device not detected/ No driver installed for X-FI Fatal

    OK!!!! the only reason I signed up here was to post that I have (for me) solved my problem.
    Before I get into details this occurred on a fresh system with latest drivers for hardware used.
    The problem was installing my X-Fi card on my 680i m/b (striker extreme).. when I would install the driver it would simply crash the computer and when it started up the hardware was not detected to used the software and the device manager said no driver installed.. I tried everything.. I installed the driver in safe mode (yay it worked without crashing) then I booted for windows only to have it blue screen for a second and restart... repeating the cycle.. so i reinstalled windows again... I tried installing the driver different ways in windows.. nothing worked... I gave up...
    BUT!!!
    today while i was at work I decided I would try one last thing.
    this is what got it going. I have SLI 8800ultras that covered the PCI slot on the bottom of my board and I though I would try the card in this slot to see if it worked there... so I disabled SLI took out my bottom card put in the sound card in the bottom slot, installed the driver... It installed 00% no crash... even better it worked after the restart!!!... so then I had to test if it worked in the top slot so I powered down, moved it up to my top PCI slot and windows auto set the driver for it (as it was already installed) It worked in the top slot now... Finally I put in the second 8800 to make sure it worked with this slot in use... It still worked fine with SLI enabled. because I was unhappy with the mess I made installing drivers all the time as I did with the many crashes I decided to do a fresh install of windows making this card work from the start so here is what you need to do if you have a 680i board with SLI. this is exactly what i did with my fresh install.
    install only one GPU card..
    Put the X-FI in a different slot that isn't giving you problems
    Install windows
    Install service pack 2
    install your chipset drivers
    install sound card drivers
    power down, change sound card to permanent slot
    test - power down
    put in the second GPU card
    install GPU drivers
    Good luck you all having this problem.. I hope my solution helps you.

    I think I?got a similar?problem earlier today when I was messing around with?onboard audio?that I later removed and after unplugging a?USB headset.
    Have you checked the device manager, is there any higlighted hardware that has a exclamation mark next to it.
    I fixed the issue by simply uninstalling the WDM device with the exclamation mark and restarted.

  • USB devices not detected in VMware [SOLVED; Using Virtualbox instead]

    I am running Arch as a host and XP on VMWare workstation 7.  My primary purpose of installing XP on VMWare was to use my edit my Line6  POD (behaves as a usb sound card) and get my USB TV Tuner box to work. The big problem that I am facing is that VMWare is not detecting any USB device (not even my USB Hard Drive).
    I have the usb controller installed.
    Any suggestions?

    I don't know vmware but with other virtual machines there is often a configuration option whether usb drives should be automatically mounted or not. Sometimes automounting also only works if the vm has the focus, i.e. is the active window.

  • Audio device not detected

    Product:
    HP Pavilion dv6707us Entertainment Notebook PC
    SN: [Personal Information Removed]
    Product Number: KC323UA#ABA
    OS: Windows Vista (32-bit)
    The OS does not detect the audio device.  Under the device manager, there is no entry for "Sound, Video, and game controllers"
    The "Windows Audio Service" is automatically started.
    Is there a way to check if the audio device has stopped working or if this problem is a software issue?  Should we do a fresh Vista Installation?

  • Sound card not detecting digital cab

    I'm having a problem getting the digital out to work on my X-Fi Gamer. I purchased the card and also the breakout box that provides s/pdif i/o via coax and digital through the /8 jack. I connect it via an optical cable to my surround receiver. I've installed all the proper software, etc, and I can get absolutely no sound.
    My thought is that the card is not detecting my optical connection. In the "flexijack" options everything is grayed out and I cannot choose digital at all. In speaker set up it has the analog connections marked at plugged in (with cords coming out) and not the flexijack connection. Only the flexijack is plugged in on the card, though. Per other posts on the boards I've made sure no other sound devices are set as default, and my onboard sound is disabled completely. I'm using a creative approved adapter (the digital i/o box) with a working cable, and working receiver. Any help would be really appreciated.
    I'm running windows Media Center XP 2005, by the way.

    Hey MrE, did you ever get this issue sorted?
    I had exactly the same symptoms recently with my new system build, and it ended up being caused by a conflict with my video card.  When I booted the system using the motherboards onboard video, my ice1712 card would then be detected by ALSA and worked as it should.
    I ended up moving my video card to the 2nd / bottom PCI-E on my motherboard and this got around the issue

  • Supported device not detect

    More specifically:
    "The audio device supported by this application is not detected. The application will exit."
    Before anyone states the obvious, yes, I realize there are a billion threads identical to mine, but none of them relate to my problem.
    Thing is, drivers work fine, sound works fine, but periodically, I become unable to enter the "Graphic Equalizer" and instead the above error shows up. A reboot usually fixes it, but still, it becomes surprisingly annoying in the long run. My card is a standard Audigy 2 ZS, nothing especial.
    It also baffles me how many other people are having semi-identical problems with no apparent solution, except random acts of "altering" your setup... Google only helped me see how many people were having the same problems.
    Feel free to bash me if I'm just being oblivious, I'm just interested in a fix.Message Edited by the-bobcat on 0-24-20070:0 AM

    I had a similar problem to this on a winXP upgrade. My original config. included a 98SE o/s and after the upgrade my desktop accepted the new o/s and interface was complete. With use there was a break down of driver reliability and the system became more and more temperamental. Nowadays I have to multiboot & run parallel driver sets (C:\98SE Vs D:\WinXP) on virtual disks for? a 20Gb harddri've with fat32 Vs ntfs. Sounds to me like your supported deveice could use some driver support (ie: there's conflict in the engine room captain)...

  • Toshiba Portege M500 sound device not Installed

    Hi,
    Try to install everest software. You can find it at download.com .  Once downloading it will give you a report of what kind of sound device you have and a link to download the latest driver( probably it will  be from toshiba web site).

  • Lumia 620 - Device not detected

    Hi,
    I've been using my 620 for a month now with no problems.I use the phone for developing purposes (Visual Studio 2012 + Windows 8 Pro).
    Around 8 days ago, I received a pack of updates of the Nokia bundled apps which I installed and after that, when I connect the phone via the USB cable, the Phone is not detected on Windows.
    I read lots of other threads about this kind of problems, even went through reinstalling all the Windows Phone SDK, reinstalled drivers (http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2749484), tried 4 different USB cables, on all the ports of my computer, tried 5 different computers too (two of which have Windows 7, three have Windows 8), removing the SD card, and the Phone still is not detected. The charging icon appears and the Phone charges OK though.
    The Phone does not appear on Windows Device Manager under any kind of label (No Unrecognized Device either), Windows Explorer does not show any drive (MTP), its like the cable is not connected (although it charges without a problem).
    I don't have the Amber update yet.
    Is there any kind of setting (possibly hidden?) that controls the USB behavior of the phone? I read there are no Diagnostics tools for WP8, but, is there any way I can check if there is a hardware problem?
    Thanks in advance!

    The vol down + power is only a reboot. Perhaps you might consider a reset from Settings>about>reset your phone.

  • Plz help, "device not detected" after windows updates?? I have so

    I have An Audigy 2 ZS, and have the latest drivers. It has been working PERFECT, LAST NIGHT I had like 0 WINDOWS UPDATES, i dont' know if any of these had anything to do with this. But, I just now went to the icon in the task bar, and went to change SPEAKER SETTINGS to switch to HEADPHONES as I ALWAYS DO, I was surprised when the "unable to change the sound device to your selected device", you press ok, and it comes up TWO MORE TIMES, Right after each other.
    I DO HAVE SOUND, FOR NOW. I have read other mentioning this error, but I didn't seem to find any answers. I can't go to speaker settings, or Surround Mixer,
    OK, NOW I tried to go to GRAPHICS EQ, and an error came up that said "THE AUDIO DEVICE SUPPORTED BY THIS APPLICATION IS NOT DETECTED, THE APPLICATION WILL EXIT"
    What is going on?
    I went to device manager and it says that the device is working properly, and I DO have sound.
    I DON'T get it. And I'm not likeing this. This is starting to worry me.
    Does ANYONE know what is going on.. PLZ?

    Thanx for the reply. I just now fixed it. I'm not totally sure what I did. Earlier I had uninstalled the device from Device manager, and then restarted, and it installed the drivers from the CD. It didn't fix it. So, I ran the LIVE update here at creative.com and downloaded the version I had before, I guess because when i had ran the update before I uninstalled the device the update wasn't there.
    But, it started to update, and said something it had to restart the pc in order to install the update, and after it installed the new "creative audio console" it now works.
    the whole thing was strange since I dind't lose sound at all. Just couldn't access settings.
