Daniel help... or anyone... vista drivers and softwa

hello i am so confused now... too many drivers here and too many softwares and files to download and don't know what are the new ones and what are the suitable ones
i have audigy 4 pro and i am using vista....
what are the right driver and files i should download to work properly with my audigy?
i already downloaded the files :
1-SB Audigy Vista Driver 2.5.0004 (based on X-Fi release)
2-Unofficial SB Audigy Series Software CD (Rev 2)
3- Sound Blaster Audigy series Vista Support Pack
long ago but i don't know where are the updates... or where are the new drivers and what to do
may any one please help me?

As the instructions on the page state, you must uninstall previous Creative drivers and software. That doesn't include the Vista Windows Update drivers. If that's all you have installed then it's okay. But if you installed any official Creative downloaded drivers or software or previous daniel_k stuff, then yeah, you must uninstall all that first. If the uninstallers don't remove all of it then DriverSweeper from guru3D.com is a good way to clean house.
Disable UAC and reboot.
Install that Vista Support Pack and reboot
Install Unofficial Creative Alchemy .00.8 and reboot
Install the Revision 2 Cd by unchecking the Alchemy and in the Audigy 2 ZS installation choose custom and uncheck the drivers and software installed by the Support Pack and put checks in everything else (though you can leave Smart Recorder unchecked as it doesn't seem to install for me. Save you clicking okay to error messages). Reboot.
Reenable UAC and reboot.
That gives you the latest versions of all the stuff.

  • Audigy 4 - Vista drivers and software urgently nee

    you know... i have this sound card (Audigy 4 - non pro) for over one year now, AND i don`t have a good driver and software for windows vista home premium x64. last driver for this sound card is:
    . Creative Sound Blaster Audigy series Vista Driver 2.2.0002 (38.30 MB) 6 Mar 07.
    i mean... 6 mar. 07
    how long do i have to wait for you, to relase all the software it is on windows xp oh, this audigy 4 was not intended to use with vista, wright and you want everybody to buy that x-fi sound card with another set of problems in windows vista. nice marketing solution. good for you ONLY.
    i`m just tired waiting. my card doesn`t work as it should, nor as it worked in windows xp.
    i need all that software. all of it, working under vista. PRONTO!
    you will provide that software, or you just lost me as a customer, and along with me, alot more.
    btw, daniel_k was only helping people, by providing drivers and software YOU couldn`t, or you just didn`t wanted to. stop deleting his posts or links to the drivers made by him.
    just stop that abbusi've marketing strategy, by not releasing software for older sound cards, and forcing customers to buy your new products. no, that wouldn`t happend.

  • Poll: Are you pleased your Vista Drivers and their current featur

    So my question goes who here uses their Sound Card to do more such as decode Dolby Digital (any kind) for SPDIF IN/OUT or any other function that enables you to do more for your home entertainment system, that Vista currently doesn't support?
    POLL:
    Are you pleased with your Vista Drivers and their current features? (A respectable question)
    Yes
    or
    No
    Maybe we can have a Poll about the feelings of the community without it being blocked for "stirring up trouble", we have an opinion lets see what the community thinks.Message Edited by cyphin6 on 03-20-200705:06 PM

    Why is it that people think they have all these "rights"? There is a difference between a "right" and a "privilege". It is painfully obvious that most people who say that have a "right" to do something don?t know what their rights are at all.
    First and foremost, moderating a privately owned forum is not a violation of anyone's "rights". Before someone complains about their "right to free speech" being violated because of a forum moderator, you need to understand about the right to "free speech" in "America" (Actually you should say in the U.S. because Cuba is part of "America" as well and they don't have a constitutionally guaranteed "right to free speech" ) applies to CONGRESS and what CONGRESS can't do. Basically, it restricts the government, not private citizens and private forums.
    And even though you may have the "right" to say something, it doesn't mean that anyone here has to listen to you...and that includes the moderators and forum owner. In other words, they can tell you to shut up by locking or deleting a topic. If you want to practice your ?right? beyond that, open your door and shout at the top of your lungs?and when the police show up, you can'tell them?all about your ?rights?

  • N95, Vista drivers and media player mode

    HI, Sorry to double post but I'm new to this forum and not sure where this should go. I got a new N95, I installed the older version of PC suite that came on the disc with the phone. I then updated to the latest version. .83 . It works fine with PC suite I can sync things transfer files etc, however I cant use it in data transfer or media player mode (it keeps searching for drivers it cant find). These are the only modes I am interested in. This is on a fairly new laptop with Vista ultimate installed. However I tried it on another computer in my house with Vista Home Premium installed, however this time I didn't install any extra software and it detected the phone in both data transfer and media player mode without any problems.
    So I'm guessing that it installed something to mess it up when I installed the original version of PC Suite. PC Suite cleaner says it isn't vista compatible but I ran it in XP compatibility mode and it appeared to do something, but I have un-installed all versions of PC Suite and it still has the same problem, I cant use system restore as it kept setting restore points whenever it installed a part of PC suite and I ran out of system restore points. So please tell me how can I get it back to normal. It looks like I'm not the only one here with a similar problem, someone must know something, Id be really grateful for any suggestions.
    Thanks in advance.

    yes, I do have same problem but I'm using N80 and winxp home, media player version 11, can anyone help us thankx
    I can help I think. I just spent all afternoon yesterday with this problem and my conclusion is that in spite of what Nokia says somewhere in the installation documentation about the Media Player driver for WMP 10 working with WMP 10 "or above", it does not work with WMP 11, and if you want this functionality you will have to roll back to WMP 10 from WMP 11.
    I think this may not be an option for Vista users, but for WinXP SP2 and an N80ie such as I have, here is what happened to me.
    I had WMP 11 and I downloaded the driver for WMP 10 from here.
    http://europe.nokia.com/A4237039
    I then connected the N80ie to the PC using the C series cable that came with the phone, and when the Found New Hardware Wizard started I browsed to the location of the driver file and it announced that it had installed it, and I had to reboot. Whenever I would reboot, or even without rebooting, the Found New Hardware Wizard kept opening again, and again, and again and would seemingly have never stopped opening.
    Now in retrospect I see that I wasn't installing it according to the directions, which say to right click on the WMP 10 driver file and choose "Install", but I don't think that would work any better if I had.
    In the end, I rolled back to the Version of WMP that was on the machine when I installed WinXP (which was WMP 9) and then upgraded it to WMP 10.
    Then following the directions for installation this time, I right clicked on the WMP 10 driver file, installed it, and it works fine.
    If you open WMP 10 and choose Sync, and if the N80ie is connected via cable and Media Player mode, you will be able to choose it at the top of the right hand pane of the Sync display in WMP 10 and see the files on yor N80 plus (if the directions are correct and I understand them correctly... I haven't tried it) copy files in one direction from WMP 10 to your N80.
    One thing I did differently than the rollback instructions call for... if you check here:
    http://www.microsoft.com/windows/windowsmedia/player/11/readme.aspx
    Step 15 under "Rolling back to a previous version of the Player" says "Click Microsoft User-Mode Driver Framework Feature Pack 1.0.0" and then click "Remove".
    I found that I had "Microsoft User-Mode Driver Framework Feature Pack 1.5" installed instead of 1.0.0 and when I clicked "Remove" I got dialog box that said if I removed it a whole list of programs might not work anymore, including but not only Nokia PC Suite, and Nokia Software Updater. So I elected NOT to remove "Microsoft User-Mode Driver Framework Feature Pack 1.5", and everything seems to work OK in spite of my not doing that.
    Hope this helps.
    I think that Nokia needs to come out with an updated driver for WMP 11 or Vista users are out of luck if they can't roll back to WMP 10, and us XP users will have to stay on WMP 10 until that happens if we want this feature to work on our N80's.
    Best Regards,
    Dave

  • Zen V 4GB Vista Drivers Probl

    Trying to get this Zen V to work with Vista is getting really frustrating. I think the problem is that I initially tried installing the software off the CD without realising that it isn't compatible. I tried to uninstall, and got rid of most of it. However, in the Uninstall programs menu, the Creative Zen V Series (R2) program with the little mp3 player logo is uninstallible. I try, but I just get the "Setup.exe has stopped working message".
    Now when I am trying to install the mp3 player, it doesn't work. The weird thing is, once i uninstall it in the Device manager, then plug it in, it docks and works properly....untill Vista is finished trying to install drivers, which it fails at. Is there a way to stop Vista doing this, or any other way to make it work?

    Never mind, I got it to work now! What I did was install the Vista compatible version of the media explorer. I didn't try that before now because it requires a player to be connected before it will install, which was a bit too Catch 22 for me to work out. what I did though was install it withing the 30 seconds or so that it takes to install the Vista drivers and the player connects. Once that was done, the old corrupt install must have been overwritten, as the nati've drivers installed properly first time. Thanks for your help anyway!

    <span class="postdetails">Windows Vista Drivers for 820 and 66
    I hate to say this about E-MU but the way they are dealing with Vista Drivers is unprofessional. I am a repeat customer of Creative products and was so impressed by my old Platinum eX that I bought a second to run duals for tons of audio processing. That was back in the day. Then I jumpped ship and tried out an M-Audio Firewire 40. That did not last too long beforei was completely unimpressed. So I came back to Creative... Purchased a 820 in the box. So impressed I turned around and purchased a 66 in the box just 8 months later. Both ran smooth as butter... All until i just recently built my new system designed primarily with audio production in mind.
    With a setup like this, who needs a mac?
    AMD Athlon X2 x64 Dual Core +6000 3.0 Ghz
    2 Gigs Corsair
    Samsung SyncMaster 206BW 2" Wide Screen
    EVGA NVidia 9700s 256 DDR3 Graphics
    SATAs up the yin
    and a PCIMIA to PCI Dock
    All under Vista Ultimate OEM
    And Guess what?
    Months into RTM of Vista...
    E-MU is caught pushing release dates.
    Last month it said they would release beta drivers middle of April...
    I waited, patiently I might add.
    I waited<waited some more, I try running xp drivers... computer wont even try to install them properly.
    My software waits, computer waits, turns into a gameing machine just because my all together 600 dollar investments in Creative are not important enough to leld me the drivers i need to be producti've in what i love.
    I need x64 drivers stat. I need them working, I need them installable without a glitch, a hitch, no driver signing problems, no questions, no fuss no muss. I find it ironic that you guys at E-MU are willing to jump right in there and make sure to have drivers compatable for you new products, yet faithful advocats of the most powerful soundcards you have are sitting here dead in the water because you dont find it nessesary to place priority on ready and waiting end users who have purchased long term support buy investing large amounts of moola into hardware from your company.
    Come on, its not like the 820 or the 66 are exactly legacy technology. We are talking about Hardware that is only two years old and should be usable for up to 6 years. This is deffinatly a strike against the company and just goes to show where Creative stands.
    I have stood by waiting in silence for a very long time.
    Now i think my time has come to tell how i feel and i believe there are alot of others out there that feel the same. the only items that do not work soothly are my E-MUs... go figure.
    And I have been looking forward to all i can do running both of them side by side.
    Oh yes, and that link posted above to the beta news for vista... its a joke. open up your betas, and have a real dev tell us what the hang ups are... At least give us real concreate reasons why it is taking so long.
    with that said, when you guys get yoru act together and get me some drivers, I will sit happy as a lark.
    My thoughts for today.

    Hello Silas,
    sorry for my bad english
    I already checked that page. On the first time I was trying to install Vista on a clean hard drive. The installation process finishes without errors but after installation Vista shows me a lot of error messages, mostly about unknown hardware. So I installed all available drivers I have found on Toshiba web site. It not helped me too much, hardware problems still remains. I could not find out what exactly causes probles. Finally I decide to install XP and then upgrade to Vista. Now everything seems to be ok. :D
    There was some hardware problems but much easier to resolve. It seems to me that Toshiba did not provide all the drivers, for example StarForce Protection drivers. Vista did not recognized this hardware on the first time.
    Now it works!

  • Vista looking for drivers and BSODs

    I bought a 3TB MyCloud device a few months ago. I cannot get it to work properly with my Windows Vista desktop and support refused to help. They remoted in and accessed the device without using their software and claimed it was a Windows problem, not theirs. When I connect the device directly to my Ubee Wireless Router/Switch, Windows Vista immediately sees it as new hardware and tries to find drivers for it. Of course WD does not provide these. In Device Manager, it shows up under Other Devices with a warning indicator because there are no drivers installed. I was able to copy files to the device, but when I try to access them from the device, my Windows Vista desktop gets a BSOD (this happened after the call to support). I've now disconnected the device from my network as the constant BSODs damaged my computer. The device works with my Windows 8.1 computer, but has problems with my Sony Blu-Ray player connected wirelessly to the network. I've posted about this in a different thread. Is there a way to get this working properly with Windows Vista?

    Bennor wrote:
    The BSOD that other thread talks about appears to be related to using one of the WD apps, my guess is the WD My Cloud Desktop app on their Windows PC. There is a known issue for some who use the WD My Cloud Desktop app where once that app is opened, some users experience Windows Explorer crashing. There is one or two other threads covering this very specific Windows Explorer crashing issue related to that WD My Cloud Desktop app that affects a few users. Generally one does not need to install "drivers" to access the WD My Cloud. One should be able to access the WD My Cloud on their local network via Windows Explorer (NOT Internet Explorer). It will show up in the "Network Neighborhood" or under "Network". If it is not showing up under Network then check the network settings on both the Vista PC, ensuring it has the same Network Name/Network Workgroup (typically "workgroup") that the WD My Cloud uses under "Settings -> Network -> Network Workgroup". The other recommended suggestion is to configure the WD My Cloud for a static IP. Either within the WD My Cloud administration UI or within one's router/gateway. Both the Vista PC and the WD My Cloud should be in the same IP address subnet (for example both should have an IP address in the 192.168.1.x range). If you have not done so read through the WD My Cloud User Manual in particular "Using Windows XP/Vista/Windows 7" under "Getting to the Public Share" for the general procedure of accessing the WD My Cloud shared folders with Windows Explorer on Windows Vista.You and I are worlds apart on this issue. Your solution doesn't relate to my problem. I did not have a problem getting to or seeing the device in Vista. There were two problems and I believe I've cured both of them, though I don't know how. Problem 1: Vista keeps asking for drivers. When I connected the device to my network, Vista would see the device and try to locate drivers as if it had found a new printer. It couldn't find any so I had to close the driver request windows without finding drivers. The device then would show up in Device Manager under Other Devices with a yellow exclamation mark indicating the drivers were not loaded correctly. After several BSODs (for a different issue), I ran SFC and CHKDSK on my computer. Neither program found a problem. Then when I tried to connect the device again, Vista started looking for drivers and I walked away from the computer for the evening. When I had come back, it said the drivers were loaded. In Device Manager, Vista shows a new device category named "Western Digital NAS" with two devices installed: My Cloud Network Media Server and My Cloud Network Storage. The driver problem is now solved but I don't know how. Problem 2: Files I had loaded onto the shares to learn how to use the device can be seen in Windows Explorer. That was never a problem. However, as soon as I clicked on a file, the screen would scramble and then BSOD. This only occurred with files loaded onto the MyCloud device. After some blue screens, I started up into Safe Mode with Networking. I was able to click on the files without crashing, though Media Player wouldn't play them or even start in Safe Mode. I then did a clean boot and it tested okay. As I added items in MSCONFIG, the problem would not recur. There was one item that prevented me from even setting MSCONFIG to do a normal startup, and that was Kaspersky Internet Security 2015. Not only that, but I couldn't start the software at all. I did a complete removal of Kaspersky and then reinstalled it. I no longer have any BSODs. Both issues, as mysterious as they were, have mysteriously been resolved. I have a DLNA issue, but that's in another post. I also have a new issue with the WD My Cloud desktop app but I don't need to use that and if I do, I'll start a new discussion.

  • Official release of XP and Vista drivers for Satellite Pro P100-465 PSPAEE

    When will the drivers be available for both XP and Vista for the PSPAEE? Currently there are drivers for the PSPA4E some of which work, some not, on either operating system. Yes the laptop is preinstalled with the Vista Ugrade and the drivers work but two of the driver apps are blocked by Defender (NDSTRay / ConfigFree and VolControl). I could get no options to enable these (unclassified as yet from MS so they are locked out) I was told to disable Defender by tech-support!
    I have tried a clean install of my own version of Vista Business and had driver problems with that as well.
    I would like to run XP until Vista is, shall we say, more efficient but would like to use drivers specifically for it so a time-frame would be very useful.
    I'd also like to know why there is a plug where a finger-scanner could go underneath the 0 of the number-pad, and a blocked-off lower PCMCIA (PCI-E?) port when neither of these are available as upgrade options? Did I miss those upgrade options or is this a case recycled from another model where they are available? If the latter then that's pretty cheap for a new machine :)

    The Toshiba USA site offers comprehensive information on Vista upgrade and drivers for P100/105 machines which include similar ones to those released in the UK/Europe. If you want to be at the bleading edge of technology/take a chance see
