Cant get true 5.1 using X-FI Fata1ity + Z-640 speak

Hey guys,
Finally got around to setting up my 640's around the room for 5. sound, running through my X-FI Fataity.
Now heres the problem, when I set my speaker config in the control panel to 5. (from desktop stereo) the sound changes to a very tinny/echoey tone. I ran the creative diagnostics and was able to get front left, front right, rear right, rear left, but nothing through the center channel or sub.
Went back to the speaker config in the control panel and changed it to surround sound, which cured the tinny sound (and had audio through the center speaker) but obviously its not 5.
Updated the soundcard drivers and that didnt fix it.
Could I have crappy codecs installed? Are my speakers faulty only in 5. mode?
Any suggestions would be appreciated

Anybody?
I've used the search feature and found similar problems but no definiti've answer.
Do I have to ring creative?

  • Cant get any widescreen resolutions using a MDP - VGA adpater

    I recently purchased an Official Apple Mini-display port to VGA adpter for use with 2011 unibody MacBook Pro and Samsung Syncmaster 2232 BW external monitor. When plugging everything in and going into displays, I am presented with the attatched display,
    with no option for any 16:10 resolutions, everything non widescreen down from 1600 x 1200. I've tried SwitchResX with no avail, and don't know what else to try? This is my monitor and its Native settings are 1680 x 1050
    Any suggestions?

    I have resolved this problem, and will explain how for the sake of anyone else who enctounters it.
    Instal SwitchResX, create a Custom Resolution with the exact same settings as the MacBook's 1680 x 1050 display mode, save and apply it (will need restart) . You can then Uninstall SwitchResX, and the custom resolution shall remain stored in the System Preferences > Display. This is good as you don't need to purchase SwitchResX, you can just use the 10 day trial, however if you need the other facilities of the program I would recommend you support the developers.
    Hope this helps others out who get stuck with the same annoying problem!

  • Cant get headphones to work, using line 6 tone port

    Hi,
    i was under the impression once you plugged your headphones in(to line 6 tone port) they would work & bypass my studio monitors?
    but no such luck?
    cheers
    Rob

    This doesn't sound like a GarageBand issue at all. I think you're going to have to read the docs that came with the Tone Port.

  • Cant get Lock Mail box in use. Why this error?

    Hi
    I m try to display the mails in the inbox in a web page.
    What i m doing is when i click the subject, it should display the content of the
    mail. When i m doing it for the first time its working fine.
    After that if i go back to the page and click the next mail's subject, i get an
    error message like this :" Cant get lock, Mailbox in use."
    Now what should i do? how do i display the content of the next mail.

    Sounds like the first page gets some kind of lock on the mailbox and doesn't release it. Then the second page doesn't work because of that lock.

    Yes, that is the Tetheringn or HotSpot option.  Some models have this.  You will have to set up your phone to do this, and your carrier will likely charge you an extra fee for the tethering service.

  • I call a class using a Button but i cant get rid of the old page??

    Hey,
    I cant get rid off the current page when i want to go to the next page! this.dispose(); doesnt work because the class doesnt implement ActionListener!! This is the code that i have used:
    JButton back = new JButton("BACK");
            back.addActionListener(new ActionListener()       
                  public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e)           
                       VowelmSound s = new VowelmSound();
                        s.setSize(Toolkit.getDefaultToolkit().getScreenSize());
                        s.show();
                        //this.dispose();           
             });         });       and this is the code for main
    public static void main(String[] args)
    {JFrame draw = new punjabidraw();   
             draw.setVisible(true);  
    }so was wondering if there was another method i could use to get rid of the old page?? repaint maybe???
    Hope you can help
    Kind Regards
    RSH

    //this.dispose(); 'This' is a nameless ActionListener object. Can't be dispose()ed.
    What do you want to dispose() really?
    And, what is your punjabidraw class?
    Save the currend page reference in a variable called, say, curPage, then do
    curPage.dispose();in the event handler for the button.

  • HT5312 I have a new iphone 5c, my apple account is set to an email i no longer use, i cant get past my own security questions, how do i get everything back in order without losing all my stuff?

    i have a new iphone 5c and i cant get past the security questions. i made my apple account a while ago with an old email. i created a new apple id with my new email but i dont use it. How do i terminate the account with my new email so i can replace my old email? If i reset my security questions will it delete all my stuff?

    You can't delete an iTunes account, but you should be able to change the email address that is on it e.g. by tapping on it in Settings > iTunes & App Store on your phone and logging into it, via the Store > View Account menu option on your computer's iTunes, or via http://appleid.apple.com - you should then be able to put it on your old account.
    For your security questions on your old account, if you have a rescue email address (which is not the same thing as an alternate email address) on that account then the steps half-way down this page will give you a reset link on your account : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5312
    If you don't have a rescue email address or don't have access to that email account (you won't be able to add one or change it until you can answer your questions) then you will need to contact iTunes Support / Apple in your country to get the questions reset.
    Contacting Apple about account security : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5699
    When they've been reset you can then use the steps half-way down the HT5312 link above to add or update your rescue email address for potential future use
    Resetting an account's security questions shouldn't affect any of the purchases that you've made on the account.

    just started a new apple tv and also started using an iMac . I have itunes on the iMac but i cant get the apple tv to sync or find any settings to do so ! How can I get the iMac and apple tv to sync the itunes ? i have a internet connection between them , I have signed in to the itunes store on the apple tv and it shows that the apple tv is sharing my library from the IMac , but it wont sync and the apple tv has no content !

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    The Apple TV (with the exception of the Apple TV 1) does not sync, it streams everything from your library on your computer or from the internet.

  • I have tried to change my User id which is an email address I no longer want to use. Now I am constantly getting requests from icloud and Apple ID for my password and cant get into my icloud account.

    I have tried to change my User id which is an email address I no longer want to use. Now I am constantly getting requests from icloud and Apple ID for my password and cant get into my icloud account.

    To change the iCloud ID you have to go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account, provide the password for the old ID when prompted to turn off Find My iPhone, then sign back in with the ID you wish to use.  If you don't know the password for your old ID, or if it isn't accepted, go to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID.  Click edit next to the primary email account, change it back to your old email address and save the change.  Then edit the name of the account to change it back to your old email address.  You can now use your current password to turn off Find My iPhone on your device, even though it prompts you for the password for your old account ID. Then save any photo stream photos that you wish to keep to your camera roll.  When finished go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account and choose Delete from My iDevice when prompted (your iCloud data will still be in iCloud).  Next, go back to https://appleid.apple.com and change your primary email address and iCloud ID name back to the way it was.  Now you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign in with your current iCloud ID and password.
