Can't install drivers for sound blaster live Telling me there isn't a sound blaster card install

I am doing a fresh install of xp on a machine. This machine had no hardware issues before I formated the dri've and re-installed windows xp.
Everytime I go to install the drivers for the sound card I get an error message telling me that setup cannot find a sound blaster card installed on the system?
I even pulled a known working li've card from the machine I have downstairs. Put the card in and started up the machine. The driver pack is still telling me there is no card installed. I've tried three different pci slots as well.
I even went as far as re-installing windows xp without service pack 2 integrated and even that didn't help!!!
Is there some kind of fix that I am missing?

the unipack download from creative will not work. first, try asking around if somebody else has the same 5. creative card as yours. the only solution for your problem is to use the installation cd that came with your creative card. I lost mine so i went to a pc repair shop and inquired if they have a copy of such cd - they normally do.
. you need to remove all the programs concerning creative from add remove programs. 2. shut down, and remove the sound card. 3. turn the pc on and let windows boot normally. install the the softwares and drivers using the cd that came with the box. 4. shut down and install the sound card 5. turn on the pc. windows will find a new hardware and will find the right drivers bec you have previously installed them. There is absolutely no need to reformat your hard dri've.

  • I can`t install drivers for Promise IDE on WINXP.

    Hi, guys. I have a problem. I can`t install drivers for Promise IDE on WINXP. I `ve got an error "This device cannot start. (Code 10)". In Norton Ghost (DOS) drive on Promise work fine. I can`t install WINXP + SP1 on HDD on Promise controller. After pressing F6 and installing driver i `ve got an error Can`t find drive. BIOS 193 beta. Devices: IBM 120Gb 180GXP on primary master, Seagate 120 SATA 26AS on Third master. CD-ROM and DVD-ROM on secondary channel. Drivers 1.00.1.37 from ASUS and 1.00.1.29 from MSI. No result.
    And another one. Why very poor perfomance when copying large files (700Mb). When starting copying speed is 25-27Mb/sec, when finishing 5-8Mb/sec. All drives under NTFS.
    PS. Sorry for my bad english.

    That's correct  
    So if I do not misunderstand you, Windows hangs when accessing the drive?
    Is it only with this drive, then maybe it's an incompatibility between the controller and the ata electronics of the drive.
    Or maybe it's completely broken.. have you tried it on the ICH5 IDE controller?
    If it works there you should use this configuration.
    I've read about problem with some drives ... take a look into the threads on the top of this board (FAQ etc.).
    What I found out yesterday: You can use the Promise in RAID mode and define a RAID0 array with only one single drive. So you could use the Fasttrak driver from MSI, which is up to date.
    I haven't tried this solution (one disk in a RAID0 stripe configuration), but I think it should work...
    Maybe you give it a try  
    PS.: Before you switch to RAID mode, you have to change the Promise Driver... but be careful: windows won't boot with the wrong driver - your last chance would be "last known good" then...

    Go to:
    http://www.toshiba.eu/innovation/download_drivers_bios.jsp
    Here choose:
    +Notebook+
    +Satellite+
    +Satellite C+
    +Satellite C50T-A+
    +All+
    +Windows 8.1 64bit+
    Now you will get all drivers for this notebook series.
    Note: On the page you will find different WLan driver since different WLan modules have been used in the different models.
    Just check each of the drivers
    To get the Bluetooth working, you need to install additional Bluetooth Filter Driver Package. This depends on the Wlan module your notebook support.
    The proper Bluetooth Filter Driver Package I found in Satellite C50T-B series

  • Can't find drivers for Lenovo G50-30 for Windows 7 32-bit

    Hi,
     I can't find drivers for Windows 7x32 bit for my new Lenovo G50-30. Looks like Lenovo support doesn't have them. Am I wrong?

    hi ziris,
    Can you try these drivers:
    Chipset:
    Intel® Chipset Device Software (INF Update Utility)
    Bluetooth:
    Bluetooth Driver (Intel, Atheros, Realtek, Broadcom)
    Camera:
    (AVC, Bison) Camera Driver
    If the  above drivers doesn't fix the unknown device under Device Manager, can you follow this guide on how to install the drivers via their Hardware ID or you may want to consider installing Windows 7 64bit (this would be best if you'll be utilizing 4GB RAM and above).

  • Satellite A200-1GB ( PSAE6E) Can't find drivers for Win 7

    Help me guys :( I can't find any drivers for windows 7 :S
    where i can found the drivers ?!

    Hi mate
    Akuma is right. Since Win 7 is not finally released, you will not find the Win 7 drivers.
    But as mentioned the Toshiba US page provides some Beta Win 7 drivers for different notebook series its worth a try
    Furthermore you could try to install the Vista drivers using Win 7 OS.
    Usually the Vista drivers (but not all) should be compatible with Win 7.
    Cheers

  • Satellite A205 S4797 - can not find drivers for my drive

    I have recovery disks and Windows Vista installation disk. When I try to install error meesage says it can not find drivers for my drive.
    I tried scannong CD drive and it cannot find them do 32-bit, 64-bit all have different drivers and if so where do I get the one I need if not from the install disk or recovery disk from manuf.?

    If you cannot use original Toshiba recovery DVD for OS installation I can imagine there is some problem with DVD itself (some missing file or scratch) but Microsoft Vista installation MUST work on this notebook model.
    If this doesnt work too there must be some problem with HDD. Just if you want to install WXP you need to load SATA driver at start-up but Vista must work.
    Can you please tell me what happen when you try to install Vista from Microsoft Vista installations DVD?

    Boot Camp doesn't install the drivers. You have the drivers on a separate USB device if you followed directions. Once in Windows connect the USB drive with the driver software. It should startup automatically and install the drivers.
    You don't even need to do that. As downloading the drivers from within Boot Camp Assistant can be unreliable, it is better to get the package directly from here:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1638
    Copy the .zip file to a USB flash drive or burn it to a DVD in OS X. Install Windows as normal, insert the flash drive/DVD in Windows, copy the .zip file to the hard drive, extract it, then run the setup executable.

  • HT1461 I have installed the Windows 8 on my MacBook using BootCamp, but I cannot install drivers for Windows now

    I have installed the Windows 8 on my MacBook using BootCamp already, but I cannot install drivers for Windows now: I've got only BootCamp 3 disk and it doesn't goo even if I start it using compatibility options. And my BootCamp on Mac didn't offer me to burn cd with drivers for windows as I saw in many instructions. How can I resolve the problem? Thanks a lot.

    Go back to Boot Camp: on the 2nd page you get this:
    Download the support software and as Windows is already installed uncheck the 2nd box.

  • I have an HP mini 210-214 dxpc want to install drivers for hp officejet G85 printer

    Help I'm at wits end I need driver (s) for hp officejet G85 all in one printer installed in my hp mini 210-214 dxpc with an upgraded windows 7 ultimate os in it.i've done everything i can find on hp website, the wizard finds the printer but no driver, windows can't find the driver, hp says its in my os already as a __os driver i cant find it or get this going been doing this for10 hrs now please somebody make it simple for me to install the necessary driver or whatever it is i need to do to get this printer operating from my laptop. oh this is through a usb connection if you need to know that.
    thank you for helping

    Hi @GoddessDiamond,
    Welcome to the HP Forums!
    I understand that you are trying to install drivers for your HP Officejet G85 printer on Windows 7. I am happy to help!
    Please take a look through this installation guide, Installing the Printer Driver Using the Windows 7 Built-in Solution for a USB Cable Connection.
    Otherwise, if that does not work, you can try to download the Windows XP driver, HP Officejet Basic Software and Driver, and run it using compatibility mode. Make older programs run in this version of Windows.
    If neither of those two options work, then the last step is to try an alternative driver, please see this post, How to Assign Alternate Print Drivers in Different Versions of Windows, by @Shane_R. 
    Hope this information resolves your issue, and have a good day!

  • How to install drivers for ati radeon 3200?and how to config xorg.co ?

    how to install drivers for ati radeon 3200?and how to config xorg.conf?

    mawch wrote:how to install drivers for ati radeon 3200?and how to config xorg.conf?
    Hello
    I am using ati hd 3200 which is integrated with my motherboard. If you are using arch you can download & install through pacman. The package is named like catalyst*. You can install them by issuing as root user
    #pacman -Sy
    #pacman -S -l | grep -i catalyst
    #pacman -S catalyst catalyst-utils
    After installation reboot your machine in runlevel 1. (single mode).  Ensure "fglrx" module is loaded correctly using
    #lsmod | grep -i fglrx
    If the resultant output have "fglrx" part  the module is loaded correctly. The next step is to create a working /etc/X11/xorg.conf. Backup your current xorg.conf if needed.
    #cp /etc/X11/xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf.bkup
    Then issue
    #aticonfig --initial --input=/etc/X11/xorg.conf
    This will create a new xorg.conf file. Now we can test our confign.
    #telinit 3
    I am using runlevel 3 to avoid graphic messup!!
    issue
    #gdm
    If you graphical login screen works correctly there is nothing to do more except adjust your monitor resoloution as you like.
    To know your ati driver is working correctly issue as root
    #fgl_glxgears
    If gears are rolling happily it seems correct. You can also know more about installed ati driver
    #fglrxinfo
    Now the installed driver version is in the output 
    If there is any problem try following
    ##### Soloutions to solve various display problems using ATI Catalyst Drivers in Linux #####
    yes video playback is choppy until i ran :-
    sudo aticonfig --overlay-type=Xv
    Try adding the following to the 'Device' section in /etc/X11/xorg.conf
    Option "TexturedVideo" "true"
    ### This is a half solution for mythtv problems. Run mythtv in window (no full screen) If You have a screen resolution of 1024x768 try the command;
    mythfrontend --geometry 800x600
    Append the "Device" Section of /etc/X11/xorg.conf file as follows;
    Section "Device"
    Identifier "Videocard0"
    Driver "fglrx"
    Option "OpenGLOverlay" "off"
    Option "VideoOverlay" "on"
    Option "TexturedVideo" "on"
    Option "TexturedVideoSync" "on"
    Option "Capabilities" "0x00000800"
    BusID "PCI:1:0:0"
    EndSection
    Add following in the .bashrc of each user or /etc/bashrc file* Most Effective In My Case!!
    export LIBGL_ALWAYS_INDIRECT=true
    ####### Arch Linux - Add the "nopat" option to the /boot/grub/menu.lst or /boot/grub/grub.conf
    ####### as in the following example

    after change Windows XP with Windows 8.1  I can't find drivers for scanning M2727 nf

    Hi: You should be able to use most of the W7 x64 drivers and software from the HP 255 G2 on your model except the BIOS and firmware files. http://h20564.www2.hp.com/hpsc/swd/public/readIndex?sp4ts.oid=6431940&swLangOid=8&swEnvOid=4063 Your notebook has the Realtek RTL8188EE 802.11bg/n 1x1 WiFi adapter, so that is the wireless driver you need. Additionally, you need these usb3 drivers.  Install both and reboot. http://h20565.www2.hp.com/hpsc/swd/public/detail?swItemId=ob_125616_1 http://h20565.www2.hp.com/hpsc/swd/public/detail?swItemId=ob_123787_1

  • Can't find drivers for display

    Hi, I can't found drivers for display Toshiba TruBrite.
    That's why I had frequnce on display only 60 Hz.
    Could you help me with this trouble?

    LCD technology is different and cannot be compared to old monitors. LCD displays work on 60 Hz refresh rate and this value is fixed. It cannot be changed.
    Doe to this fact you cannot change it.
    I don't understand what you mean with display definition but if the right (Toshiba offered) driver is preinstalled everything will be OK. There is nothing that must be defined. Absolutely nothing.
    TrueBrite or not there is nothing to be defined.
    So if the display driver is preinstalled and if you use right display resolution everything is OK.
    Be happy and have fun with your toy. ;)
