Fresh Install Vista 64bit X-fi Fatality no sound

Hey everyone I'm needing help in getting sound to work with my card. I have just rebuilt my entire computer setup and am having issues getting any sound with my card. I've downloaded the driver? 6.0..368 and have rebooted but no sound is coming out still. I'm at a loss here, have searched the forum for other issues and haven't found an answer that works. If anyone has some answers, I'd greatly appreciate it.
Vista 64 bit
X-fi Fatality card
EVGA 750i SLI FTW Board

I can't get my mic to work at all in Vista 64. I also have 4 gigabyte's of ram. I have the latest drivers installed.
It constantly reads as unavailable in the Control Panel / Sound / Recording.
I can turn on my MB soundcard and plug it into that and get it to register with Vista, but it still doesn't work, it just screeches.
I'm not sure what to do, my mic was very important when I played WoW and I feel as though I might not be able to fix this problem anytime soon. I could try reinstalling the creative drivers to see if anything changes...
Oh, and I have the X-Fi Gamer card.
***FIXED IT***
I found a fix for my problem. I downloaded Smart Recorder for Vista 64 on Creative's website, and messed around with it. I was able to actually hear myself through my mic and was able to get rid of the hiss with the option. Than magically after playing with it, my Mic showed up in the control panel / sound / recorder. Tried it out in gtalk and it works fine. Crossing my fingers for the future.Message Edited by dcasez on 07-8-2007:09 PM

Satellite A350-13D - Can I install Vista 64bit?

Hi
(excuse me, I can't speak english very well, sorry if I write with faults)
3 days ago, I bought an Toshiba Satellite A350-13D. It has 4GB RAM, but Windows Vista Home Premium 32 Bit is installed. The computer can use only 3GB.
Can I install Vista Home Premium 64 Bit to use the totality of RAM (4GB)? Where can I download the driver for my computer?
Thanks for your help :)
Have a nice day

Hi!
Of course you can I install Windows Vista 64bit Why not? What do you think?
On the Toshiba website I can find all drivers for Vista 64bit on Satellite A350 so it should all working properly with Vista 64. Check it yourself:
http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com => Support & Downloads => Download Drivers
But note there are two different BIOS versions available One for 32bit and one for 64bit. After installing Vista 64bit you must update the BIOS too.

Does anyone here know how to install vista 64bit on MBP C2D?

Just ordered a 17" today. Wanna know if I can install vista 64bit on it?
thanks,
m.j

It runs fine and pretty fast. Drivers are a problems, can't seem to find any. I am about to delete it though cause its useless. I just partitioned with boot camp and then popped in the Vista 64 bit CD and it installed it self. took about 30 to 40 minutes. it does look nice though but the warning pop ups are very annoying and will at a certain point drive you crazy.
good luck

IMac 3.06ghz with Vista 64bit :: Need drivers for GPU nVidia 8800 GS

Hey everybody,
I succesfully installed Vista 64bit on my newest iMac with Boot Camp, but the only thing missing right now is the driver for the GPU, Nvidia 8800 GS 512MB RAM. Any idea if I can install a fitting driver? I already tried the auto-detect driver from Nvidia's website and I manually selected the latest driver there, but none works.
Any ideas?
Thanks so far!
Mx

Hi Mx,
use the driver and modification found here: http://www.laptopvideo2go.com/
Since the iMacs don't use the Desktop versions but rather the Mobility versions of GPUs, the generic NVIDIA driver won't install because of the missing entry in the .inf file.

ITunes will not work on Fresh INstall of Vista x64 SP1

I have a strange issue. I have a Windows Vista x64 with SP1 (Yes the DVD is a production DVD from Microsoft not a slip stream copy.) and I wanted to do a fresh install of Vista with SP1. Reinstalled OS and everything is running great but iTunes. When I start iTunes I get this error message about "mssip32.dll" being damaged or corrupt please reinstall the app. So I looked around good old Google and apple.com. I found several fixes about re-registering a set of dll files. So did them all, no change. Reinstalled Vista from scratch again, no change. So for the heck of it I reinstalled Vista with no SP1 installed and then applied SP1 and it works fine. I reinstalled Vista with SP1 and have been running it for over a week and everything on the system is tested and solid as a rock with no issues. The only program that will not work is iTunes. I have also tried all the way back to version 7.4 and no luck.
Any ideas on this?

Can't install a clean Vista 64bit on Satellite P200-1I6

Hello,
i have Toshiba Satellite P200-1I6. I have Product recovery DVD which works, but I want to do a clean install of Vista 64bit OS but
my toshiba won't but any Vista version - only Toshiba product recovery DVD.
Does someone knows how to fix that?

Usually the notebook would boot from the CD/DVD drive after pressing the C button.
You could also press F12 to get the boot menu on the screen. Then you could choose the CD/DVD drive as a boot source.
But if the notebook cannot boot from DVD then its possible that the DVD is not readable for the CD/DVD drive.
Try different DVDs from different manufacturers... I made a good experience with DVD-R TDK

Installing Acrobat Reader 8.1.2 with Vista 64bit

Hi
I'm trying to install Adobe Acrobat reader on vista 64bit, but after install the Acrobat Reader 8.1.2 takes over all of the Vista desk top and windows apps.
I've searched for workarounds and found none, I cant be the only person with this problem, any help would be appreciated.
Thanks

I have seen reports of this: what seems to happen is that for some
reason Reader gets associated with the EXE extension. It may be worth
searching for fixes for "vista exe association"

Did a fresh install of Windows Vista and Premiere CS5 and now Premiere is buggy!

Hi everyone. I was using Premiere Pro CS5 on my quad core system editing AVCHD clips just fine and then I had to do a fresh install of Windows Vista Home Premium. I then did a fresh install of Premiere Pro CS5 on a separate hard drive and opened up one of my AVCHD projects. Now, for some reason, the same AVCHD projects that played fine before are now jittery and also show blocky artifacts. The jitter seems to be a constant jitter every second and the blocky artifacts seem to happen mostly when the subject in the clip is moving. I know the problem isn't in the original clip from my GH-1 camera because if I play the original clip that is on my hard drive, it plays just fine so, it has to be Premiere CS5 that is causing the clips to play all jerky on the timeline. Can someone please help me solve this problem? One more thing, when I reinstalled Premiere CS5, I installed the latest update from Adobe. I didn't have that update installed before when the clips played fine. Could that update be the culprit? Thanks.
My clips were recorded using a Panasonic GH1 HDSLR camera and are 1080/24p (progressive).

As far as I know, you thought wrong

Cannot install Vista Ultimate 64bits on Mac Pro 2008

Hello,
I'm trying to install Vista Ultimate 64bits on my new Mac Pro (2008, 2x Quad Core, 3x 500GBHDD, 16 GB Ram), but Vista is unable to find a correct partition type.
The first thing I did was to install a 4th HD, and I constantly received an error 0x80004005 which seems to be too generic.
Then I tried to install it on the 3rd HD (Bay 2 is where my OS X startup disk is located btw) but here no way neither....Windows cannot find a valid partition.....
I tried to partition it manually in MBR...same problem....
Then with BootCamp assistant...same problem...
I also tried to use Vista Business 64 SP1, same problem...
Do you have any idea ?
Thanks,
Patrick

Hello,
Thanks for your answer, but unfortunately I'm still stuck...
To resume the situation :
I put a brand new 250GB SATA in the bay 4.
I start Bootcamp Assistant and tell him that I want to use this new disk for Windows and then start Vista x64 install.
Vista sees 2 partitions on this new disk :
Disk 3 Partition 1 : 200 MB (Primary)
Disk 3 Partition 2 : 230 GB (Primary)
If I try to use the P2 for the install, I have to format it first. Once formatted, Vista says : This computer's hardware may not support booting to this disk. Ensure that the disk controller is enabled in the computer's BIOS menu.
If I try to use the 200 MB (just for fun..), then I also have to format it, but here I receive the error message 0x8000xxxx
So clearly I'm lost...
Could it be related to the 16 GB RAM ? Too much for Vista ?? I don't believe as this is Vista x64...
Thanks for your help, ideas..
Patrick

Not able to install live update with vista 64bit

I got a MSI P45 NEO-F board with Intel 2 duo E8400 processor, and VISTA 64bit.
I'm not able to make the live update work, the CD-ROM following the card does support vista, but not the 64bit version. After having tried updating everything else to make my computer stop crashing when playing Age of Conan, I would like to see if an update of the bios will help. I would rather use the MSI updater than do it my self, as I don't want to take the extra risk.
I've checked core temperature, RAM temperature, memory leak seems not to be the issue either, and I got the last driver for my videocard (v8.9 for Radeon HD 4870 512MB). At any given time the sound loops, picture may freeze and pixel or just go to brown stripes, and I then need to force a reboot. Some times the system has BSODed by itself as well.
Current BIOS is v1.1, I think there is a v1.5 now.
Is there a live update supporting vista64? Or a receipt for dummies how to do it manually? The AMI BIOS Flash procedure following one of the BIOS-versions that I *think* I can use doesn't include an explanation for vista.

X120e ---- Best way to do a FRESH windows 7 64bit install?

Hello I will be doing a fresh install of windows after completely wiping the hard drive. Could sime kind soul please help me out here. I only have a windows 7 Ultimate 64 bit disc.
I'm hearing people are having all sorts of problems with drivers and what not. Is there a step by step guide available?
Thanks
p.s its the X120e.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

It looks like for the Windows 7 USB/DVD Download Tool to work, you have to have an ISO of the Win7 DVD. If you have the retail DVD, you would also need to download a program that will create an ISO image of the DVD. Another way to accomplish the same goal is to prepare the thumb drive with diskpart.exe (included with Windows) and copy the contents of the DVD to the thumb drive (which should be at least 4GB).
Here's a Microsoft TechNet article with instructions: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/magazine/dd535816.aspx

Fresh Windows Vista Install (X:/ drive)

I have a HP Pavilion Elite m9500Y and I wish to use a windows vista install DVD rather then the recovery DVD's/partition.
When ever I boot to disk and go through the reinstall process, when I get to select drive it only has X:/ drive available.
Is this some type of boot drive? Is it because of something RAID related? I would like to know how to get around this.

Hello ddwcmp555, I'm not quite sure why you do not see any available disk\partitions to install Vista on.
Here is the link for the specifications for your system, and it shows the system shipped with a 750 GB hard drive and no Raid Array. It also shows the system shipped with Windows Vista Home Premium with Windows Media Center (64-bit) with Vista Service Pack 1.
The X: partition is created during the start of the Vista installation, as a temp. partition to store the Vista setup files. When the setup completes successfullly, this X: partition is removed.
Can you advise where you acquired the Vista DVD, and if your Vista DVD might be an upgrade version rather than a full version. An upgrade version would look for the original operating system, before proceeding with the installation process.
