Extreme Music - Problems with Driver and Installation
Hi guys,
?After the my computer has given up it's life on the last friday, I bought a new one and wanted yesterday to install everything like OS, driver and so on.
I started the install of the driver(which is the version from the creative website , released in july 2009) for my soundcard, the X-FI Extreme Music and when the information was given, that the Windows drivers will be updated and it will take some minutes, something happend:
At my first try a bluescreen appered. You can imagine, that I was shocked to see a bluescreen on my new pc after an hour.
I run CCleaner to remove some rests of the "maybe installed" driver and started it again. There was no bluescreen, but the mouse freezes and the setup does nothing anymore. I can close it with may keyboard, but the driver wasn't installed.
After a new clean up with CCleaner I tried it again. I put out my cable of the mouse , so maybe this was the problem(ofc, WHY is there a problem with USB and PCI Cards ?). The installations works, no hang up or freezes. After a restart nothing happend. No sound. I looked at the hardware manager(do not know, whether it is the correct word, I'm german and have a german windows ) of windows and at audio, video and gamecontroller, there is a warning of not working driver.
I remember, that on my old system the driver was titled something like
X-FI Audio[800] or something like that.
But here it was named with?
X-FI Processor WDM
I thing the system is installing the wrong driver.
I looked at some forums , find the hint to change the PCI slot. I did it, but nothing changed.
So, here are some information of my system configuration, maybe someone can help.
Old system(where the soundcard works fine with no problems):
- Athlon X2 4200+(socket was the "old" 939)
- Asus A8N-E
- DDR 400 RAM, 2GB
- Windows XP Professional(32 Bit) with SP3
New System:
- Phenom II X4 80(quadcore)
- Gigabyte MA790XT-UD4P
- DDR3 333 RAM , 4GB
- same OS as used in the old configuration
Ofc all chipdriver were installed and seems to work fine.
The onboard soundchip is disabled too.
Hope for help ^^

FAQ: Where can I get help with downloading and installation?
See this page for options for contacting Adobe regarding problems with downloading and installation:
"Contact support - download and installation"
You can ask questions and search for answers on the Adobe user-to-user forum dedicated to downloading, installation, and setup.
You can also check the Customer Service FAQ lists for issues with downloading and installation.
You can order Premiere Pro CS6 here ... or try it free for 30 days.Hello,
This kind of question is best asked in the Windows Forums, however I've had some succession with a similar issue myself.
Non-Genuine Windows means that it can't authenticate your copy of Windows.
It's not a problem, all your need is a genuine product key code. Provided you don't have different version of Windows 7 installed to the one you are buying (for example windows 7 Home Premium and Windows 7 business) Then you can use the new key code.
Click on the Start Button and type: CMD (into the 'Search programs and files' field in the Start Menu)
The Start Menu will show 'CMD.exe',
Right-click the CMD.exe file and select Run As Administrator.
In the CMD window, type: slmgr.vbs -ipk <type your product key here>
To activate windows after changing the key, type: slmgr.vbs -ato
It should now accept the new key code and you will need to be connected to the Internet to authenticate.
If by chance the windows 7 types are different (One is Home premium say and the other is Business) then you will need to uninstall that copy of Windows 7 and install the new one. If your using BootCamp then you will need to go into BootCamp under system preferences and remove that copy of Windows (delete it)
Then create a new setup with your new Windows 7 disk.
For me I had the same type of windows, changing the product code worked. Saved me the bother of having to reinstall Windows again and it was all genuine.
Best of luck -
Mountain Lion fails to install saying it cannot create the recovery; I had a similar problem with Lion and the Apple Store that helped me resolve it gave me an installable version of Mountain Lion on a flash drive for my inconvenience....is there some trick I am missing or do I need to make an appointment with a genius...
I have the MacIntosh volume and the Boot Camp partition only. I know that when I installed Lion, I had to go through a whole back-up and recovery of Windows and then re-format the drive.
The tech at the Apple Store had a previous life as a MSCE and was very helpful. I believe he even said that I should not have htis problem with Mountain Lion which is why they gave me the flash with it onboard. I was in the process of starting a new job when I went to Lion, so I have waited to do this next and probably last upgrade to this old MBP since I doubt Apple will support this MBP in Maverick.
I do not have another installation, so that is not an option. I will try to create an external, I have plenty of hard drives around and see if I can get it done that way. It might take me a week or two to get back to it, but I will comment back upon completion of that effort. Thanks for your help....Dave Iverson -
getting an error downloading itunes 64bit for windows 7. says there is a problem with the windows installer package. a program required for the install to be complete could not be run. any ideas? i uninstalled it last night when it would not open.
Just in case, let's try a standalone AppleSoftwareUpdate.msi install.
Download and save a copy of the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64setup.exe) installer file to your hard drive:
http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
Download and install the free trial version of WinRAR:
http://www.rarlab.com/
Right-click the iTunesSetup.exe, and select "Extract to iTunesSetup". WinRAR will expand the contents of the file into a folder called "iTunesSetup".
Go into the folder and doubleclick the AppleSoftwareUpdate.msi to do a standalone ASU install.
(If it offers you the choice to remove or repair, choose "Remove", and if the uninstall goes through successfully, see if you can reinstall by doubleclicking the AppleSoftwareUpdate.msi again.)
Does it install (or uninstall and then reinstall) properly for you? If not, what error message do you get? (Precise text, please.) -
5, it says, "There is a problem with this Windows Installer package. A program run as part of the setup did not finish as expected. Contact your support personnel or package vendor." I have Windows XP and I need help.
After reading all these posts, one by one did not resolve my problem until I got the very end. Regardless of what step would resolve your problem, these are the steps I would recomment to everyone for a what seems to be a safe and fool-proof upgrade to iTunes 10.5.
1. Stand alone upgrade to the latest Quicktime version
2. Go to control panel and "change" then select repair to the following applications in the order specified by the post on Oct 27. (Notice I skipped Quicktime because it had been upgrade manually,and Bonjour did not have a "repair" option)
iTunes; Apple Software Update: Mobile Device Support; Apple Applications Support
Some of these applications may not appear if they do not apply to your configuration (no iPhone, or no iPad, or other apple devices).
Once all updated, I did not need to restart nor launch any applications, I simply went straight into the 10.5 upgrade, and where it normally got stuck, this time the installation continued for a while longer until it completed successfully.
Great work everyone who contributed! Thank you very much! -

Repair your Apple software update.
Go to START > ALL PROGRAMS > Apple Software Update. If it offers you a newer version of Apple Software Update, do it but Deselect any other software offered at the same time. Once done, try another iTunes install
If you don't find ASU, go to Control Panel:
START > CONTROL PANEL/ > Add n Remove Programs, highlight ASU and click CHANGE then REPAIR -

Hard Drive Crash - need help with choosing new drive and installation
My hard drive seems to have crashed. My computer froze, and when I tried to reboot, it got stuck at the startup screen. I started from the system CD, ran the disk repair utility, and it said it could not repair the disk. I ran Tech Tool Pro and it could not repair the disk. I tried to start up in Target disk mode while connected to my older G4 iMac (that I'm using now as my backup), and the disk would not mount. So I need some expert advice - I am assuming the hard drive is toast. I wish I could at least mount it in target disk mode to transfer files, but I haven't been able to do that. I was going to take it in for repair (or possibly buy a new computer), but after reading some of the posts here, I am thinking I could just replace the internal hard drive with a 3.5" SATA drive.
What I need to know is am I correct about this? And is this the right kind of drive for my iMac? Are there any specifications I need to be aware of when ordering a new drive? I downloaded the manual explaining how to replace the drive and it looks doable. I would appreciate any guidance as to choosing the new drive (specific brand names/models would be great), installing the drive, and tips for formatting, etc. Thanks in advance for your help!Welcome to Discussions - any 3 1/2" SATA drive will be fine, go to [macsales.com] or [smalldog.com] or [newegg.com] and choose whichever drive fits your wallet. Most of them are reliable, I have heard of problems with Seagate and Hitachi, but there are always some failures with any brand. Make sure to get a good warranty.Instructions will come with the drive, but you can download them from [Apple|http://www.apple.com/support/manuals/imac> as well.
