Does creative ever release any driver updates???

This is in regards to the Sound Blaster Z drivers. I noticed that when Window 8.1 was released back in November? They had on the 8.1 compatibility list of upcoming support drivers for Windows 8.1 set for February. Well where is it? The current drivers are not from January 22nd like it states. These same drivers have been around since the release of the Sound Blaster Z and haven't been updated since. My question is do you guys ever update your drivers? The current drivers cause nothing but headaches and at times causes the card not to be detected at windows start up. Windows 8.1 Update was released today, and now it's even buggier then before. I've had to restart my computer two times just to get the card to be detected under windows.
It's not the card as I have tested it out on a Windows 7 machine without any issues. Seems to be a combination of Windows 8.1 with Creative drivers.

Hi ndelafe,
Apologies for your inconvenience..
Unfortunately the only source of information I can provide you regarding driver releases is from our Knowledgebase Article (link below):

If there is any news on upcoming driver releases for the next few months, it should reflect on this page.
Cheers!

Does creative cloud include any software for HD video screen capture?

Does creative cloud include any software for HD video screen capture? I know that Captivate is not offered but are there other software applications available that do the same job? I am not wanting to make tutorials but I am a filmmaker wanting to integrate sequences with screen capture (which I will edit on Premiere)

Thanks Brian,
Spent some time yesterday doing research on this. There are good reviews and bad reviews for just about every screen capture application out there it seems.
The top-ten reviews gave their gold medal to CamVerce, which I'll probably buy today.
http://video-capture-software-review.toptenreviews.com/
Yesterday I bought the Sonne Screen video which is rated 5th on the top-ten site. (I figured as I'm going to be editing on premiere I shoudn't need to pay for extra editing packages and as I'm not using it to create tutorials I really just want a good quality screen capture for Windows 8). However, I'm not really happy with the image quality on playback and I'm finding the technical assistance really poor from Sonne. I still haven't received an email confirmation from them.
The others that I thought sounded right for me were WM Capture (though the top-ten review had a few negative things to say about it).
Tried a couple of the free ones also. EZvid is very popular.
Will see how I go and let you know. I'm sure this is very subjective and I'm probably not being as clear as I need to be about purpose of use.

How to install Creative Cloud on any drive other than my System drive...

You are now chatting with 'Bhagawan'
Bhagawan: Hello. Welcome to Adobe Technical Support.
Bhagawan: Hi Steve
Steve: It appears CC installs on my system drive without asking me. The way I manage my system - this is not acceptable. So, how do I install on the drive I install all my other apps?
Bhagawan: I understand that you want to install Creative Cloud desktop app. Am I correct?
Steve: On a particular drive - not my system drive.
Steve: CC, Photoshop, etc.
Bhagawan: I will be glad to check and help you with this issue.
Bhagawan: Steve, creative cloud desktop app can be install only on C drive, but other apps you select for other drive.
Steve: My C: drive is dedicated to my OS only.
Steve: It is a special drive that will not work for very long if software companies put their programs on it till it fills up and then everything stops.
Steve: Didn't Adobe think of this?
Steve: I have one computer that only has a few MBs left of C:. What do I do on that computer?
Steve: "left on C:"
Bhagawan: Give me a minute.
Bhagawan: Thank you.
Bhagawan: Steve, I'm really sorry, creative cloud desktop app will be installed on C Drive, since the operating system is installed, but other Creative Cloud apps can be installed other Drive and depends on file size.

I had the same problem and finally solved it.
It is "funny" that CC doesn't ask you where to install apps. Or better to say, it asks you but doesn't care. In Creative Cloud desktop app/Preferences there is option to choose where you want apps to be installed, but they are still installed in C:/Program Files/....
How to install apps on secondary drive in just 3 steps:
1. Go to page Adobe CC 2014 Direct Download Links – Creative Cloud 2014 Release | ProDesignTools and download all apps that you will need.
2. Once downloaded, install it. During installation you will be asked where you want app to be installed (just like in any other "normal" installation)
3. Be happy
Hope I helped

Creative, please release a driver that allows 20db boost to be enabled via

See THIS thread: http://forums.creative.com/showthread.php?t=977
I myself pulled my hair out for weeks trying to figure out how to turn +20db boost on as the option was not in my control panel even after loading the very latest drivers for my X-FI Extreme Gamer card on VISTA. The registry patches on the 2nd page were the ONLY way I was able to turn it on.
I wish they'd get rid of all the crappy bloatware involved with the drivers/options as well but for gods sake, it's supposedly an X-FI EXTREME GAMER card... hint: Gamers make extensive use of their MICROPHONES and not having +20db boost available drove me bananas. Even now I'm not happy with the card and am seriously considering upgrading to some other audio card (NON CREATIVE) so that I can use 20db boost without having to hack my registry. Also so I can get rid of all this bloatware involved with the card.

Hello All I am wishing to be able to get my Asus Rampage Extreme's stock card which is an Asus creative supremfx x-fi card to be able to work with all of it's features such as the cmss 3d , eq, crystalizer, surroung sound modes etc.
Back in January I switched to w7 beta, I have the 64bit version and have all other drivers working flawlessly except for the stock w7 audio driver is not capable of recognizing the supremfx x-fi card that I have.
Also, I have tryed uninstalling the w7 driver and putting the driver which came on dvd with the mb/card. That one does the same thing it is not recognized at all.
I also have tryed Daniel K's driver, and that one does not work either...it also is not recognizing the card.
All of the drivers I have tryed ' DO " work providing the stock sound so I do have sound, just I don't have access to the creative console where all of the surround eq and processing power to the card are controlled.
I am one of thousands of Asus Rampage I & II Extreme users who have this same card.
Asus is always slow to adapt to any new driver changes, and so I hope that with the assistance of all of you that I might be able to get the Asus Supremfx x-fi creative sound console working?

Why does Creative Cloud Desktop block when updating fails?

Actually, this is a feature request: Don't block Creative Cloud Desktop's other functions (App Download/Install, File Synchronization) just because there is an update.
5 out 10 times updating fails at our facility, forcing us to reinstall the Creative Cloud App from a fresh download.
All this time files are not synched, apps are not updated. This applies to both Mac and Windows versions.
This is the tinyiest app of the Suite and it produces the most frustrations here – while the bigger applications (with installations in the GBs) run smoothly.

That's what I get on a regular basis: Creative Cloud Desktop could not be updated.(Error code: 2) Contact support I will then download the latest Creative Cloud Desktop full install and install it manually. For every machine. Every now and then.
But more important: You now have several Cloud File Sync services on your desktop (Dropbox, Onedrive, Google Drive etc.) and they manage to update themselves automagically – or not. They won't stop functioning, only because they could not get a specific mini-bugfix.

Petition for Creative to Release a Firmware Update for ZVM due to sound issu

I don't know what i'm doing exactly, i've just seen other threads having similar headings, and although i haven't got mine yet, i'd like creative to sort out supposed 'distorting' etc with the ZVM. This is a big problem for people using ZVMs, so please resolve this issue as soon as possible!
It would be great if this worked!

I have'nt heard any distortion on the ZVM. It gets louder than I care to listen (I have a very loud car audio system in my car) I use a 00 dollar pair of in-ear Shure headphones and I dont use any EQ or bass boost. With a decent pair of headphones you won't need any EQ with this player and without EQ or boost you can take the player to its highest volume without distortion. If you dont have some already, buy a decent pair of headphones. They will make a big difference. I don't see the point in using low end headphones with a high end audio player.Message Edited by Player8 on 03-26-200604:44 PM

HP Support Assisstant - why does it not recommend all driver updates for the model?

I use HP Support Assisstant, and it is configured to update my machine weekly. I have had video problems and now have audio problems. How come certain KEY drivers are not coming through on Support Assistant automatically? What's the purpose of having a weekly update if it's not consistent and I have to do research on drivers anyway?

OK, what operating system are you using? When the printer reportedly goes offline, does it still have a valid IP address from the router (print a Wireless Network Test from the front of the printer - make sure the IP is not 169.254.x.x nor 0.0.0.0)?
If it still has a valid IP, then the issue is not with the printer, but more likely the router or operating system. If you are using Windows, download and run this utility: http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareDownloadIndex?softwareitem=mp-104282-2&cc=us&dlc=en&lc=en...

Laserjet 3052 and OSX Mavericks. Scanning with HP Director does not work. Any driver download.

My iMac will not scan using OSX 10.9 Mavericks and HP Director. Prints ok. Are there any new drivers available.

Read this thread:

My LaserJet 3052 works with Mavericks after I followed these instructions. It's not 100% stable, but it sure beats buying a new scanner/printer combo. Mine still rocks after 7 years of use!
Good luck!

Are there any graphic driver updates for Satellite L850-162

Are there any driver updates available for the L850-162?
I'm just running with the ones that came installed with the laptop but the display is pixellated and jumpy when watching video.
Any help/advice would be much appreciated

Sat L850-162 is a part of the PSKDGE and it has been equipped with an Intel HD (INTEL HM76) Express chipset (graphic chip)
There are more Toshiba series which use the same chipset so you could also use the drivers released for such notebook models.
For example:
C850 PSKC8E
C855 PSKC8E
C870 PSC8EE
L830 PSK84E
L870 PSKBGE
P850 PSPKBE
and others
At least you could also try to use the Intel HD HM76 driver from the Intel page.

Is creative EVER going to produce a soundcard with Dolby Digital Encodi

It would be really nice if Creative would make a soundcard that included DD Encoding and a real SPDIF output and not ont that only supports AC-3 passthru from DVDs and PCM stereo! Especially since nVidia did it on the old nForce2 MCP-T and C-Media also supports DD Encoding in thier CMI8768 chip used on this card (http://www.bluegears.com/soundcard_xmystique.html). The real killing thing is that now that Realtek now has the HD Realtek ALC880 CODEC for AC-97 sound that does DD-Encoding (http://www.realtek.com.tw/products/products-2.aspx?modelid=2004058) so that motherboards will now be able to have DD Encoding and not the $400 creative card!

Hi Jason,
I do not mean to be difficult but, as I stated in my original post, I have an SB0220, and that driver would not install. It reports that it cannot detect any Sound Blaster audio card on my system, even though Creative Diagnostics (the version installed from the cd) reports that everything is installed and working correctly (passed all tests), and the setup program on the original install cd works without any problems. This would seem to indicate to me that your information source is wrong.
In any case, that is not the point of my post. The point is that this card (and other SB022x models) should be included. It does not necessarly have to be in it's own category (although it would make it much easier to find the correct software/drivers/documentation if it was), but it should be included somewhere. Even if the link brings you to a page that says that currently there are no available updates for this card, it should be included. Currently, the documentation for this card is not even available for download. I can understand there not being any driver updates as of yet, but if nothing else, the documentation should be avaialble.

Searched for driver updates - do I need them all? Qosmio G30-175

Hello people, new Toshiba user here.
Last week I bought a Qosmio G30-175. After a Bluetooth installation problem everything is fine.
I updated BIOS today to v1.70 (even though the Windows version wouldn't work)!
I thought I would do a search for any driver updates and I find that 86 updates appear!!!
Could somebody tell me whether all these updates are merely available for use, or does my particular laptop require all these updates?
Thanks in advance.

Hi
What?? 86 drivers??
Are you sure? I have checked the Toshiba driver page of Qosmio G30-175 (PQG30E) and found only 50 drivers for Windows XP MCE.
But the list of 50 drivers contains double entries! For example there are 2 BIOS, 2 LAN drivers, different modem drivers, etc listed.
You should install only the drivers and utilities which are listening in the Installation instruction document. This guide line is important and you should follow this guide line if you install the Toshiba drivers manually.
You will find the document also in the driver section

Video driver update?? when???

is lenovo planning to release any video update?! last gpu update was at
07 Nov 2011
i try to play now diablo 3 open beta with lenovo drivers and it aint working i have to download the drivers from nvidia to make it work...
its really weird that lenovo simply abandons the gpu drivers...

What W series machine do you have and what video? It is interesting that you have had no problems using the 296 drivers. Both the 295 and 296 drivers series have been problematic for me on my w520. When I try to use those drivers (to include the latest 296.35) I start having power problems. My machine will go to sleep after about three minutes on it's own regardless of no idle timers being set in the power settings. The 301.24 beta, 296.35, and 295.37 drivers do this. When I use the 285.62 and Lenovo's drivers the problem does not appear. I have a ticket open with Nvidia and they are still testing. Due to other issues (that could be related) I also have a ticket open with Lenovo to just go ahead and replace the motherboard next week. I still would not mind to hear about anyone else using 295 or 296 release series Nvidia drivers and their experiences.My machine is a w520, Quadro 2000M, 16gb and Win 7 x64 Ult.Thanks
