Error installing Creative X-FI Xtreme Gamer...

Wonder if you guys can help. i have had this problem before and the only way I could fix it was rebuilding my OS. I am running Windows 7 32-bit and I have uninstalled my Creative X-FI Xtreme Gamer to clear up some audio issues and update to a new driver. i uninstalled the old one my device manager, uninstalled all the associated applications then booted into safe mode and ran Driver Cleaner, I then ran CCleaner to clear any remaining registry entries. I went to the official site and downloaded the driver exactly as I did after the fresh OS install and then rebooted windows. upon booting back in I get the driver box which searches for dri'ves in the bottom task bar but it fails with the error:
Multimedia Audio Controller - No Driver Found.
I went into Device Manager to find an exclamation mark on the Multimedia Audio Controller so I tried to update the driver through there by browsing to my temp directory and selecting the correct driver.
This then throws up the error details:
Windows encountered the problem installing the driver
Creative X-FI Audio Processor (WDM)
There is no driver selected for the device information set or element.
I have tried searching again, re-seating the card, clearing CMOS etc etc and the Creative website finds the card installed through autoupdate and brings up a list of the Driver and Programs to install but this error happens everytime. I had this problem a few months back and ended up re-installing Windows to fix it but I just can't be bothered with that anymore.
Does anyone know a way to fix this error?
Cheers.

I tried installing the daniel_k drivers that worked before but now no matter what i do i keep getting this ****ing error(w8.1)

    and this is a secure download you mean? ....
    Jeez, calm down already. I never said you HAD to download it, but if you want any of the applications that work in XP to work in Vista then you're going to need that disk; either by downloading it or fromk here,?http://us.creative.com/products/prod...7&product=6743?

    Maybe you really should take a vallium or something and re-read what I posted, then you may just grasp the fact that that is the exact driver I told you you needed.

  • PROBLEMS Foxconn G965 chipset WITH Creative X-Fi Xtreme Gamer Fatal

    Hello every body.
    I have found a driver problem of X-Fi Xtreme Gamer Fatalty Professional Series and the motherboard Foxconn G9657MA-8KS2H.
    With the install process you dont have problem, and with music... but when you go to play the EAX effects doesnt work properly (metalic noise), at least it fault down.
    With other motherboards there is no problem. Of course I have tried everything, (drivers, thanche the pci slot, another games... GRAW, Battlefield 242, Call of duty etc... It doesnt work.
    Then I tried with my old Creative Audigy 2 ZS Platinum Pro, and the same problem with old drivers. I download this november drivers and then it works fine.
    The sound is similer (less voices but similar, good sound), but I havent got the night mode sound level that let me play during the night without making noise (gun, explosions etc sound very loud).
    Some one knows where can I get a modified driver that runs with chipset G965?

    I had to switch from game mode to entertainment mode using the Creative Console Launder software applet. Once I made the change all fi've speakers are working, I would prefer that they all work in game mode but for now until I can find a better solution this will have too work for now. I hope this helps for you.

    AProblem X-Fi Xtreme Gamer Fatalty Pro Series Code 0 or 2 error8 Over the past 0 days i've been trying to get this Sound Blaster X-Fi Fatalty ?Card working on my new computer but it seems the?card just doesent want to start work or be detected somehow!
    It works on 3 other computers <span class="small">(my friends and my old one wich is a p4 2.4 with a? asrock mobo) and the best i managed it to do was the sound card being installed working for a reboot or 2 and then just start to hiss and then i shutdown the computer and the device manager tells me again that the device could not start etc etc etc... code 0 error blah blah
    I have onboard sound disabled (in BIOS), tried every OS there is (XP sp sp2 sp3, Vista 32 sp Vista 64 sp Win7 32 Win7) coupled with every pack of drivers (creative site and non creative site)?there is and fresh installs of OS from xp to vista and win7 with no use.
    If someone here can be of some help i would be very gratefull!
    The card is a Creative X-Fi Xtreme Gamer Fatalty pro
    Btw: the pc is a core i7 with a Gigabyte X58-UD4 6g ram currently with vista 64

    E Anyone get to the bottom of this I keep getting the card recognised as a multimedia audio controller in Vista 64.
    Nothing I do will get this to work, when I force it to use the driver from the disc/internet or non-creative drivers this device just states could not start code 0.
    The card works in my other machine vista 32 bit.

  • Having trouble with my Xtreme Gamer sound card

    I have an Alienware computer that came with the card and its software pre-installed. It has worked fine until today when BF2 would no longer recognize the card. When I uninstalled the software to reinstall it, it said I didn't have any devices. What should I do? I want to refrain from opening the case. Thanks!

    Ya know, it is funny I ran across this thread. I am having the exact same problem with my Alienware and am currently working at trying to resolve it. So far I tried to force the drivers and it did not seem to like that so much. Older patch I found?didn't work. I think my next step is to uninstall everything creative and crack the case open and try removing the card. Then try a different slot if able or boot the comp a couple times without it, and then install it back in the?same slot. No IRQ?problems I checked that. I read somewhere that sometimes something in the bios can bug out and it needs to be re-checked in. Not sure of the exact terms of it atm, but I hope you get the idea. A quick fix that I did find that should work for you as well is to make sure?all?Creative?drivers are cleaned out and then use windows update to search for optional downloads. It finds a driver for the X-Fi that actually works.
    Below is a copy/paste of a request for help?I placed on the Alienware boards just to give you an idea of where I am at. /startcopy?<span class="normalTextSmall">Hello,
    I am at my wits end here. So figured I would come here and ask for some input. Basicly the problem I am having is I have poping/crackling sounds coming from my speakers while playing FSX. What is wierd is it only happens in certain missions and/or planes. It also sounded way messed up at the desktop and during sound tests but I was able to fix that by changing the freq to 24bit lowest hrtz setting studio quality.
    I have been doing a ton of research into this problem and it would seem if I updated my drivers there is a good chance there is a fix in there for me.. I would hope so as I have tried everything under the sun. Known knowledge and reading every forum I could find.
    The big problem I can't seem to over come is that no matter which drivers I use they tell me I am unable to use them because they do not see a Creative X-Fi on my machine. The newest Creative drivers tell me this. Even the Creative drivers that came with my AW backup disk act the same way. The only driver that I could get to work is the one that windows update supplies when the driver is fully uninstalled. What is even funnier is that when I use my AW Respawn disk that is also installs the same exact drivers that Windows Update installs for that card. Which are ancient. Antique really.
    So why would no new Creative drivers want to work? No AW supplied backup drivers want to work? No downloaded X-Fi drivers downloaded from AW site want to work. And why would AW give me a driver for backup when even they themselves obviously did not get that one to work because the respawn disk uses the same old drivers windows update supplies when no drivers are installed?
    I have tried Winzip to unpack the the .exe file and update wizard says that I have the best drivers already installed. Even though these ones just came out. I have even tried to force the drivers in with the have disk option and that just resulted in an unbootable pc thanks to the blue screen of death right after bios flash screen.
    So, how do I get any Creative X-Fi Xtreme Gamer drivers to install. I have to be able to update them, in hopes that they will fix my crackling/static problem..
    Just got the machine the other day so I haven't tried installing other games. And I do realize that AW is not respossible for FSX issues. But I really do find it odd that even my backup drivers won't work, and they were not even used anyways during the build process.. I would have hoped this issue would have been fixed in house then. So it has me really concerned.
    What is my next step? Bios update?(this computer was built around Nov st 07.), Move card around maybe?(shouldn't this have been done before shipping?).. oh my head hurts from this one. I have never had to fold and give up and come to a forum for help. I am truly stumped.

Someone from Alienware did call us and got in contact with my wife about the post.

Really my biggest problem left is to get any Creative driver to see I do indeed have?a Creative X-Fi installed so I may update my drivers. Having a sound issue and not being able to update my drivers is driving me insane really.

  • Failed to install Creative Cloud desktop error code 1 Windows 8.1

    I just recently tried to begin a trial of creative cloud in order to get access to photoshop. I really need photoshop for my school because of how powerful it is and the tools is offers. A couple weeks ago I tried to download and install creative cloud for windows 8 64-bit, and the download begins, but once it reaches around 50%, it raises an error message saying "We've encountered the following issues: Creative Cloud desktop failed to install (error code 1)". I was having problems with the internet at the time so I just naturally assumed it was the cause. So I went ahead and gave it a couple of days before I tried again. When I tried again I received the same error message at the same time. I continued to look around for a solution and trying it everyday but I have had absolutely no luck with it, and honestly am getting quite frustrated with it. I have looked everywhere for a solution, I tried the adobe clenup tool, I have checked to make sure I don't have any previous versions of adobe products on my computer, and even tried installing it as an admin in safe mode, and still nothing. I have no idea what to do next, but I know that I have to get ahold of photoshop, one way or another, and it must have the professional tools included in the creative cloud edition. Please tell me there is a simple solution and I have been blind this entire time. If there is no solution, can someone direct me to another software similar to photoshop that has access to the plug-in dDo? (I am in game development and have heard how powerful dDo is and have been dying to use it. I have also been anxious to get photoshop, but it doesn't appear to be possible without the creative cloud desktop app).
