Cant use my 5.1 Sound in vi

Hello.
i have a Creative XF-I Soundblaster Extreme music card SB0670
Ive recently Updated windows to vista and cant use the 5. sound. Iv'e downloaded the the newest drivers and then im in the Creative Console laucher i cant change my current settings for speakers i can only have 2/2. sound and cant even change to 5..
Any ideas how i can solve this problem?

Even if you select more than 2 speakers in Vista, the original source of sound will need to support the extra speakers in order to be mapped to those speakers. So playing say a MP3 on a 5. system with no processing features of the card enabled (such as CMSS-3D) will only result in sound from the front 2 speakers because that is all that are contained in the file. If you are just referring to testing the speakers in the surround sound config panel in Vista, I don't know what to suggest as it seems to work fine for me. As far as DVD's, you'll need DVD playback software that supports Dolby Digital or DTS decoding in order to get 5. sound. As far as sounds coming from the wrong speakers... I have no clue. I lost count of how many times I installed and uninstalled the Creative drivers/software in XP because of that problem. I never did figure out what it was causing it, but it hasn't happend to me yet in Vista. While researching the issue it did seem that a lot of the people with the problem were using Logitech webcams.Message Edited by jasonamd on 06-0-200706:28 PM

  • Why cant i hear the delete sound in email using iOS 6.0.1

    I can hear the keyboard clicks and send sound effects but I do not hear the swoosh when deleting messages.  My iPod Touch used to make that sound, does the iPad not have that same sound?  
    I'm new to iPad so forgive me if this is a stupid question....

    Thanks Charles,
    ok here goes
    I have a new 5th gen ipod. For some reason in the ipod prefs in itunes I dont have any options to add video or photos the only options that I get are for music and podcasts.
    I have reinstaled itunes 6.0.1 (3) about 4 times each time cleaning every file of the mac that has anthing to do with itunes.
    Even though my ipod shows in my desktop and itunes list and in the system profiler under usb 2.0 I still cant seem to reformat the new ipod. When I use the restore option when I load the ipod updater it says to plug it in. Yet its clearly there.
    I have also deleted the ipoddriver.kxt file as well
    Thank you in advance.

  • I have a new OS X now my Iphoto version 8.2 needs upgrading I downloaded 9.3 but I cant use it as I need a minimum of 9.1 how do I do this ?

    I have a new downloaded OS X now my Iphoto version 8.2 needs upgrading I downloaded 9.3 but I cant use it as I need a minimum of 9.1 how do I do this ?

    You can purchase the newest version of iPhoto on the Mac app store. Cost (in US dollars) is $14.99.
    It sounds like you downloaded an iPhoto update to take version 9.1 up to 9.3. You can't use it with version 8.x.
    Best of luck.

  • Okay so my iphone says its connected to the internet but the internet only works for games so i cant use things like facebook twitter or youtube PLZ TELL ME HOW TO FIX THISf

    Okay so my iphone says its connected to the internet but the internet only works for games so i cant use things like facebook twitter or youtube PLZ TELL ME HOW TO FIX THISf by the way it an iphone 4s and i have never encountered this problem before my dads iphone is the same after we updated to ios 8.1.1 but my mum hasnt updated yet and hers is fine

    If deleting then reinstalling the apps doesn't work, then contact the app developer for support.
    It sounds, though, like your internet connection is simply very slow.
    Try making a backup, then restoring the iPhone as new, and testing again.

  • HT1665 how come i cant use other headphones or external speakers with my ipod

    how come i cant use headphones or external speakers with my ipod.sood as you plug either in there is no sound.

    - Try cleaning out/blowing out the headphone jack. Try inserting/removing the plug a dozen times or so.
    Try the following to rule out a software problem
    - Check also Settings > General > Accessibility > Hearing. Make sure that the sound balance is not set all the way to "R".
    - Reset the iPod. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Reset all settings
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup
    - Restore to factory settings/new iPod.
    - Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store. Seems you have a bad headphone jack.
    Apple Retail Store - Genius Bar
    Apple will exchange your iPod for a refurbished one for this price. They do not fix yours.
    Apple - iPod Repair price                  
    A third-party place like the following will replace the jack for less. Google for more.

    Replace the jack yourself

  • Satellite L450 - Can I use Creative X-FI sound card?

    Hi,
    will the Creative sound blaster x-fi xtreme audio notebook soundcard plug into my Toshiba Satellite L450D which has a 4 in 1 media card reader or do I need some kind of adapter?

    Hi pitza,
    Do you mean this sound card?
    If yes you should read the user manual firstly. The 4in1 media card reader is only designed for flash cards like, SD card, SDHC card, etc.
    This Creative sound card requires a ExpressCard slot (34 or 54).
    I have checked the user manual of Satellite L450 and its not equipped with such a card slot
    => You cant use this sound card!

  • I have an iMac with os x lion, I installed windows 7 in the partition but I cant use internet there.

    I have an iMac with os x lion, I installed windows 7 in the partition vut I cant use internet there. In device manager the ethernet controller appears in yellow, what I have to do? A specifically process or download a driver, wich driver?

    Eder Ximenes wrote:
    Hi! You may reinstall the driver manually:
    by  Boot Camp - Installation & Setup Guide (OS X Lion) :
    To reinstall a specific driver:
    If you need to reinstall specific drivers, you can install one driver at a time. For example, if your Mac’s built-in camera isn’t working, you can reinstall just the camera’s driver.
    Individual drivers are in the Drivers folder on the CD, DVD, or external disk with the Windows support software.
    1  Insert the CD or DVD or connect the external disk with the Windows support software.
    2  Quit AutoRun if it opens.
    3  Using Windows Explorer, locate the driver that you want to reinstall.
    4  Open the driver to start the installation.
    Your drive (Network's drive) is in this location:
    WindowsSupoport -> Drivers -> Broadcon -> BroadconNetworkAdapterWin7_32 (depends of version of your windows!)
    In my case i need to install manually the drives for Net and sound!
    Sorry my english, i'm brazilian!
    I hope I´ve helped!
    You have not, the OP has Lion so no disk, and you can't re-install until after you install, which hasn't happened yet.
    To the OP, use BCA to download the Windows Support Software, follow the instructions to install it in Windows.

  • I cant use my personal hotspot

    i cant use my personal hotspot

    Hello Glen,
    It sounds like your Personal Hotspot is not functioning. I would try the troubleshooting from this article named:
    iOS: Troubleshooting Personal Hotspot
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts2756
    Confirm that your iOS device, computer, and wireless plan all meet the system requirements for Personal Hotspot.
    Verify that Personal Hotspot is enabled by tapping Settings > General > Cellular > Personal Hotspot.
    Verify the Internet connection on your iOS device by tapping Safari and loading a new webpage.
    If one connection type doesn't work, try another (for example, instead of connecting using Wi-Fi, try using USB or Bluetooth).
    Try disabling and reenabling Personal Hotspot from Settings > Personal Hotspot or Settings > General > Cellular > Personal Hotspot.
    Install the latest version of iOS. Tap Settings > General > Software Update.
    Reset network settings by tapping Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings.
    If none of the previous steps resolves your issue, restore the iPhone.
    There is additional troubleshooting to be done toward the bottom if needed, depending on the situation you are seeing as well.
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
    Cheers,
    Sterling

  • Cant use netflix

    I cant use my netflix app any more and dont know why. when i sych it says i have the latest version. but cant use the app. it says i need a newer version. can anyone shed some light.

    Sounds like Netflix is only allowing the latest version to connect to their servers. There current app requires iOS 5 or later. If you have a 2nd generation Touch you will not be able to upgrade to that version.

    Hi Moe,
    Sounds mostly likje a bad KB, do you have another to test with?
    Or...
    One way to test is to Safe Boot from the HD, (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, Test for problem in Safe Mode...
    PS. Safe boot may stay on the gray radian for a long time, let it go, it's trying to repair the Hard Drive
    Reboot, test again.
    If it only does it in Regular Boot, then it could be some hardware problem like Video card, (Quartz is turned off in Safe Mode), or Airport, or some USB or Firewire device, or 3rd party add-on, Check System Preferences>Accounts (Users & Groups in later OSX versions)>Login Items window to see if it or something relevant is listed.
    Check the System Preferences>Other Row, for 3rd party Pref Panes.
    Also look in these if they exist, some are invisible...

  • Cant see my airplay icon, cant use my remote app on either of my devices

    Hi
    I have the gen 3 apple TV and somehow i can no longer airplay, from my mac book pro, ipad, ipad mini or iphone.  It used to work on all of my devices and now I cant see the icon. 
    When I open my remote app it tells me that I have to turn on Home sharing on my itunes or apple tv.  It is turned on, on all of my devices.
    I have been trying to trouble shoot this issue (all of my devices have the latest updates) and I still cant use my remote or air play
    Any suggestions on how to fix this?

    I was able to fix the issue by unpluging the apple tv, router, and modem all for about 2-3 minutes and then replugging them in

  • How do I transfer an app from itunes my pc to my iphone 4s? I cant use wifi as my chip fried at the last update

    How can I transfer an App purchased on iTunes on my pc to my iPhone 4s. I have tried synching but this does not make the app appear on my iPhone. I cant use wifi as my chip was fried on the latest update.

    When you tried syncing, did you connect the phone, then click on the phone icon near the top left of iTunes, then click on Apps under Settings in the sidebar, then find the app in question and click the Install button beside it before clicking Sync at the bottom right?

  • TS4268 Why i cant use my iMessage in my ipad mini? I use the same id and password in my iphone

    Someone help me with the problem i have. I cant log in into my iMessage in my iPad mini using the same account i am using in my iPhone. I checked the spelling of the password and username they are all correct but still i cant use it on iMessage. Somebody help me. Thanks

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    In order to change your Apple ID or password for your iCloud account on your iOS device, you need to delete the account from your iOS device first, then add it back using your updated details. (Settings > iCloud, scroll down and hit "Delete Account")
    Just enter your existing details, don't try creating a new account.

    My MBP is Early 2011 but dunno why cant use mirroring with apple TV, the icon cannot be found. So cannot use mirroring.
    I have follow trouble shooting , they recommend to go system preference -> display , thus can find out the mirroring icon if no mean it doesnt support. But according to the web, Early 2011 MBP should be able to use, dunno why.

    Just realise I havent updated my OS to mountain lion and this is the reason why I cannot use mirroring before ^^

    Please follow these directions to delete the Mail "sandbox" folder.
    Back up all data.
    Triple-click the line below to select it:
    ~/Library/Containers/com.apple.mail
    Right-click or control-click the highlighted line and select
    Services ▹ Reveal
    from the contextual menu.* A Finder window should open with a folder named "com.apple.mail" selected. If it does, move the selected folder — not just its contents — to the Desktop. Leave the Finder window open for now.
    Quit and relaunch Mail, and test. If the problem is resolved, you may have to recreate some of your Mail settings. You can then delete the folder you moved and close the Finder window. If you still have the problem, quit Mail again and put the folder back where it was, overwriting the one that may have been created in its place. Post your results.
    Caution: If you change any of the contents of the sandbox, but leave the folder itself in place, Mail may crash or not launch at all. Deleting the whole sandbox will cause it to be rebuilt automatically.
    *If you don't see the contextual menu item, copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C). In the Finder, select
    Go ▹ Go to Folder...
    from the menu bar, paste into the box that opens (command-V). You won't see what you pasted because a line break is included. Press return.
