How to Install Latest SB Live Drivers Onto New Install of

I upgraded to a new motherboard and CPU and have just installed a fresh new copy of Windows XP on the machine. I haven't plugged it in yet, but I will be installing a SB Li've Value CT4830.
In preparation for installing this card, I tried to download the latest drivers, but the web site says that in order to install the latest driver, I must already have the driver from July 2002 installed.
Where can I get the July 2002 driver? It can't be on my original CD since I bought the card before 2002.
I am trying to do a minimal install of drivers, and do not need or want to install any non-essential appliction software, unless its necessary to get surround sound.
If it matters, XP Service Pack 2 is installed.Message Edited by anthonyanthony on -25-2004 02:25 PM

Bif
Same thing here with me. I recently got a new system but kept my Soundblaster
card (Li've Platinum 5.) and with it a fresh install of XP SP2. I knew I would
have to use the Li'veDrvUni-Pack(ENG).exe driver update because the origi-
nal CD could not be used (same as you). So I was doing a fresh install of the
Li'veDrvUni-Pack(ENG).exe with no pre-existing Soundblaster stuff installed (save
for the XP Soundblaster drivers).
So here is what happened:
* ran Li'veDrvUni-Pack(ENG).exe; did the typical install
* sound is ok -- however, I ran the diagnostics and the mixer, soundfonts, and
one other one (the last item, forgot which one it was) failed
* tried to start the mixer to verify the mixer failure and the familiar "CTDevcon.dll
has failed" message came up
I have had this happen to me before in trying to install the Li'veDrvUni-Pack and I did
manage to get everything working again but I forget how. I believe it involved running
the CTzapxx program which I did try but XP keeps on putting in the default Sound-
blaster drivers after rebooting. I think this might be the problem (the fact that the
default drivers keep on getting installed) but I can't remember how to get around it.
Moderators/experts/technicians -- any ideas?

    Hi: I think that is the problem then. Hopefully you can find the W7 pro version you need at the link below. SP1 Media Refresh are the newest files. http://forums.mydigitallife.info/threads/14709-Windows-7-Digital-River-direct-links-Multiple-Languages-X86-amp-X64/page60?p=470600&viewfull=1#post470600 Then use this tool to make the file bootable onto a 4 GB USB flash drive or a DVD. http://www.microsoftstore.com/store/msusa/html/pbPage.Help_Win7_usbdvd_dwnTool It is very important to check to make sure the file that you downloaded reports the same size as what it was advertised to be. For example, some members have gotten a "Download Complete" message but only part of the file was actually downloaded (like 2 GB out of 3 GB).

  • How do I get contacts from iphone5 onto new pc?

    How do I get contacts from iphone5 onto new pc?  They do show up on my Ipad but not in icloud on my pc.  Thank you.

    If you are trying to do this with iCloud, make sure your Mac is running OS X Lion (10.7.2) or higher, then go to Settings>iCloud on your phone, sign in with your Apple ID to create your account, turn Contacts to On, then on your Mac go to System Preferences>iCloud, sign into your account and check Contacts.
    If you only want to import a copy of your contacts from your Mac to your phone without using iCloud, do the following:
    Open Contacts (Address Book) on your Mac, go to View>Groups.
    Click on the All Contacts group, select any contact to the right, thengo to Edit>Select All (Command-A) to select them all.
    Export to a vCard by going to File>Export>vCard, save this on your desktop.
    Send an email to yourself with this file as an attachment.
    Open the email on your iPhone and tap the attachment to import the contacts to your phone.

  • How to sync existing AppleTV media data onto newly installed TimeCapsule ?

    My configuration is:
    MacBook [model=4,1 / MacOSX v10.5.8]
    AppleTV [model=A1218]
    TimeCapsule [model=A1409]
    The TimeCapsule is used for Macbook TimeMachine backups AND it also houses my current iTunes Library [where my iTunes Media directories reside] .
    The AppleTV media content is synced with the TimeCapsule -- the "Computers" setting in the AppleTV designates the TC iTL as its link/locked computer .
    Then the amber light went on [and stayed on] for the TimeCapsule and the Airport Utility application reported the TC hard disk was damaged .
    I bought and installed a new TimeCapsule ; Time Machine backups are now reinstated on the new TC .
    How can I reinstate the iTunes Library onto the new TC ?  How can I synchronize the existing AppleTV media data [which includes over 20000 songs] down to the new TC ?  I can use MacBook iTunes app to create a new empty iTunes Library on the new TC but if I modify the AppleTV setting for "Computers" to "unlink" the old TC then won't I lose everything on the AppleTV ?
    HELP !!!
    Also, how can I be certain that the backup of my MacBook that has now been created on the new TC via Time Machine is a FULL backup of the MacBook's harddrive and not a partial backup ??

    Where is your computer's backup of all important data that should include your iTunes library and should have been created or updated immediately before installing a new OS? Did you lose all important data when doing do or just your iTunes content? The iPhone is not designed or intended to be used as a backup storage device.

  • How to load OS and old programs onto new SSD?

    So I've learned by late-2008 MBP can handle up to 8gb RAM, and a solid-state drive. This is exciting, as the computer has gone a bit buggy over the years, with new OS upgrades since I got it, it now boots slower, needs frequent restarts, &c.
    So I will put the new 4 gb RAM sticks and the new SSD in myself, and load up Yosemite onto the new SSD…But…
    1. How does one load an Apple OS onto a blank hard drive, these days? and,
    2. Does anyone know a relatively painless way to recover my still-OK old software, without going out and buying it again, or without re-buying versions on eBay? For example, I use Logic 9.1.8, which is a totally fine program---I don't want to pay for a newer version---I downloaded it originally from the Apple store---but they don't seem to keep any record of purchases older than 18 months.
    I don't want to just load an old Time Machine image, would like a fresh start. 
    So, two issues---wondering if anyone might have some notions here---

    Clean Install of Snow Leopard
         1. Boot the computer using the Snow Leopard Installer Disc or the Disc 1 that came
             with your computer.  Insert the disc into the optical drive and restart the computer.
             After the chime press and hold down the  "C" key.  Release the key when you see
             a small spinning gear appear below the dark gray Apple logo.
         2. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue
             button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu.
             After DU loads select the hard drive entry from the left side list (mfgr.'s ID and drive
             size.)  Click on the Partition tab in the DU main window.  Set the number of

             and select GUID, click on OK, then set the format type to MacOS Extended
             (Journaled, if supported), then click on the Apply button.
         3. When the formatting has completed quit DU and return to the installer.  Proceed
             with the OS X installation and follow the directions included with the installer.
         4. When the installation has completed your computer will Restart into the Setup
             Assistant. After you finish Setup Assistant will complete the installation after which
             you will be running a fresh install of OS X.  You can now begin the update process
             by opening Software Update and installing all recommended updates to bring your
             installation current.
         5. If you are planning to sell or give your computer away, then do the following:
            After you reformat your hard drive and reinstall OS X, the computer restarts to a
            Welcome screen and asks you to choose a country or region. If you want to leave
            the Mac in an out-of-box state, don't continue with the setup of your system. Instead,
            press Command-Q to shut down the Mac. When the new owner turns on the Mac,
            the Setup Assistant will guide them through the setup process.
    Download and install Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1. Download Yosemite, unless you have the Mountain Lion installer handy, and install it.
    As for your old software you can install it from original media, if you have it. You can re-download software purchased on the App Store. But as for old versions running with Yosemite, see App Compatibility Table - RoaringApps.

  • No audio, after factory reset,flash install,SoundMax & HDA audio drivers won't install

    My problems are:
    No sound with Youtube or the laptop itself
    SoundMax won't install either though I downloaded HDA audio drivers it requested.
    Flash download stuffed up my SoundMax after factory reset.
    I decided to do a factory reset after Youtube starting slowing down. After reset it (Youtube) kind of worked better
    then the audio disappeared from the laptop. The drivers, SoundMax Audio was gone (greyed out).
    I downloaded the Audio driver from Lenovo website for my X31 but SoundMax install wouldn't install because it kept saying HDA Audio drivers weren't installed.
    I downloaded it from here:
    http://support.lenovo.com/en_AU/research/hints-or-tips/detail.page?&DocID=HT072373
    So I went to HP site to download HDA audio drivers, then the SoundMax Audio reappeared and I had sound on my computer.
    HDA Audio drivers link at HP website (since Lenovo doesn't have it):

    When I downloaded latest Adobe Flash, the SoundMax Audio disappeared again. So at the moment I have Youtube video without sound (and Firefox keeps telling me to download Flash?)
    No sound on IE as well.
    Would appreciate your help. Thank you very much.

  • How do I put music from ipod onto new computer

    I had my Macbook fixed and replaced. When I got it back and tried to plug in my ipod touch, it said that "it's synced with another library, choose erase and install or cancel".
    How can I put my music back onto my macbook?

    Connect your iPod to your computer. When you get the message that it is linked to a different library and asking if you want to link to this one and replace all your songs etc, press "Cancel". Pressing "Erase and Sync" will irretrievably remove all the songs from your iPod. When your iPod appears in the iTunes source list change the update setting to manual, that will let you use our iPod without the risk of accidentally erasing it. Check the "manually manage music and videos" box in Summary then press the Apply button. Also when using most of the utilities listed below your iPod needs to be enabled for disc use, changing to manual update will do this by default: Managing content manually on iPod and iPhone
    Once you are safely connected there are a few things you can do to restore your iTunes from the iPod. There are a number of third party utilities that you can use to retrieve music files and playlists from your iPod. I use Senuti but have a look at the web pages and documentation for the others too, you'll find that they have varying degrees of functionality and some will transfer movies, videos, photos and games as well. This is just a small selection of what's available, you can read reviews and comparisons of some of them here:
    Wired News - Rescue Your Stranded Tunes
    Comparison of iPod managers
    Senuti Mac Only (Currently only the beta version is iPod Touch & iPhone compatible)
    PodView Mac Only
    PodWorks Mac Only
    iPodDisk PPC Mac Only (experimental version available for Intel Macs)
    TuneAid Mac only (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
    iPodRip Mac & Windows
    YamiPod Mac & Windows
    Music Rescue Mac & Windows
    iPod Music Liberator Mac & Windows
    iGadget Mac & Windows (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
    Floola Mac & Windows
    iRepo Mac & Windows (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
    iPod Access Mac & Windows (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
    TouchCopy Mac & Windows (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
    If you have any iTunes Music Store purchases the transfer of purchased content only from the iPod to authorised computers was introduced with iTunes 7. You'll find details in this article: Copying iTunes Store purchases from your iPod or iPhone to a computer
    There's also a manual method of copying songs from your iPod to a Mac or PC. The procedure is a bit involved and won't recover playlists but if you're interested it's available on page 2 at this link: Copying Content from your iPod to your Computer - The Definitive Guide
    Keep your iPod in manual mode until you have reloaded your iTunes and you are happy with your playlists etc then it will be safe to return it auto-sync. I would also advise that you get yourself an external hard drive and back your stuff up, relying on an iPod as your sole backup is not a good idea and external drives are comparatively inexpensive these days, you can get loads of storage for a reasonable outlay:
    Back up your iTunes library by copying to an external hard drive

  • T410 - Install NVIDIA & Intel HD drivers, or just install Optimus drivers?

    Hi Folks,
    I'm entirely confused about which drivers I should install.  Do I install NVIDIA and Intel HD drivers separately?  Or, do I just install Optimus drivers when they come out?  Or do I install all 3?
    thanks,

    I would like to share with you that you need to update both drivers, first you need to update the Intel HD and then NVIDIA graphics software of your notebook from the below mentioned web link.
    http://support.lenovo.com/en_US/downloads/default.​page?

  • HOW TO: Install LATEST ATI CATALYST drivers

    So ATI/AMD doesn't consistently update the "BootCamp" drivers and as a gamer I want utmost performance out of what I have (of course without OCing). Therefore, I went searching for a solution and found it and I will explain it here, step by step. Forgive me if this has already been posted. Note that I did this in XP and NOT Vista.
    1. Download the latest CATALYST drivers from here:
    http://game.amd.com/us-en/drivers_catalyst.aspx?p=xp/radeonx-xp
    2. Open the driver software as if you were going to install it and let it extract to its default directory. Take note of what that directory is as you will need to know that file path for later. Once it extracts it will move on to an installation. Stop/cancel the installation the first chance you get.
    3. REMOVE your currently installed ATI drivers. There are two ways to do this:
    -1. If you downloaded the actually CATALYST Software Suite, there will be a program in the folder to where it extracted called "AtiCimUn" that will remove your drivers.
    -2. Google "remove ATI drivers" and I think it's the first link that tells you a detailed step by step method of removing the drivers.
    4. Restart after successfully removing the drivers.
    5. Download MobilityModder here: http://www.driverheaven.net/modtool.php
    -If you scroll closer to the bottom of that page, there will be a download link AND instructions for the PROPER method of installing MobilityModder.
    6. Run MobilityModder
    7. Browse to the directory where the drivers are installed.
    8. Click "Modify"
    9. When the modification is complete, close MobilityModder and Right Click on "My Computer" then click on Properties
    10. Click the "Hardware" tab
    11. Click on Device Manager
    12. At least one device should have a yellow circle with a black question mark in it. For me, Windows saw it as a "VGA Controller". Right click it and click "Update Drivers"
    13. It will ask you some stuff about if you want Windows Update to look for drivers, say "No not this time" and click next
    14. Select "Install from a list or specific location{Advanced) and click next
    15. Select "Don't search, I will choose the driver to install"
    16. Click on the "Have Disk" button
    17. Browse to the folder where the ATI drivers were extracted to (MobilityModder will have rewritten the modified files to the same location)
    18. The specific file you are looking for is a Configuration file whose icon looks like a white notepad with a yellowish cog that has some metal rod going through it. Click on it and click "open"
    19. At this point Windows should recognize which card you have specifically, if not, it will have the entire list of cards that driver can update. If you run into that, just find it in the list.
    20. Let windows copy the files, if it tells you that the drivers are not digitally signed, say "continue anyway". It's just an effect of the MobilityModder modifying the files and since it doesn't have a certificate, it's not considered signed.
    21. When it's done click finish.
    22. Restart
    23. Happy new drivers
    I'm thinking you might be able to skip the MobilityModder part and just skip straight to directing Windows right to where the drivers are instead of having to mod the files. I'm not sure if it works because I haven't done it but you're welcome to try. If it doesn't work it just means you have to use MobilityModder.
    I hope this helps.

    Update: After using the method described above the drivers did install successfully however, when I loaded some games I noticed that they did not take up the whole screen. No amount of changing the resolution solved the problem.
    So I completely removed the drivers and loaded unmodified drivers. I had to find my x1600 from the list and there were actually two but I just took the first one. I let Windows copy the files after warning that it can't confirm they were for my hardware. After a restart I tried my games again and they were taking up the whole screen as they did when I had BootCamps outdated drivers.
    So I can say that you CAN skip steps 5-9 (the steps for the mobility modding). You'll just have to find your drivers and some of them do show up multiple times. I'm probably going to try the other x1600 listing just to see what happens. I'm not sure if there's a difference between the same listings (mine was Radeon x1600 followed by another Radeon x1600) but I'm assuming there is or else ATI would put so many >.<

  • How can I download the latest microsoft live messenger onto a 10.4.9

    Hi there,
    I am trying to work out how to use microsoft live messenger on my Power Book G4 10.4.9 version. My wish is to download it so I can use the video communication feature on it with family members who only have a pc not a mac. I now there are programs macs can use between eachother but everyone with a pc is using the latest version of live messenger. I would really appreciate it if you could help me with this problem if you know what I can do or what tghings to download so tyhis mac will download the messenger live. I have the messenger version just befeor the live version and then it seemed impossible to download. Like they had all of a sudden stopped the compatibility with messenger. I thought maybe it was because mac has now started to use the pentium, that they didnt need to allow for differences anymore. Anyway I thought their might be a third party program that might allow me to download the messenger live. I would really appreciate some help. i RANG SUPPORT AT APPLE AND THEY SAID TO DO THIS. Have a great day. Sincerely Bernadette

    Sorry but this area is for discussing wireless networking. Your question has nothing to do with that.
    The best place for your question is a Microsoft discussion site. However you may find a solution by posting your question in the Mac OS X v10.4 Tiger > Using Mac OS X Tiger discussion area.

  • HOW DO I GET ALL MY DRIVERS TO ACTUALLY INSTALL!!!!!!!

    IBM T60P-2623DDU
    Upgraded Ram to 4GB
    Now have New HD--Previous failed completely.
    My system had a bad HD, it went, I lost the boot partition completely, but my important data was saved. I've installed XP SP1, updated to SP2.
    I am having the hardest time getting the proper updates and fixes for my system. System Update is not working, and I have no idea what drivers to get to for each device. 
    SM Bus Controller?
    Multiple Unknown Devices?
    I download drivers from http://www-307.ibm.com/pc/support/site.wss/document.do?lndocid=MIGR-62928,
    but now i have no idea which driver goes with what, as they're all stored in cryptic folders and names that have no meaning in helping me identify which "unknown" device they're for.
    mind you...i really can't afford the downtime on my system or spend another 4 hours searching for proper drivers.
    I have a new WD scorpio drive too, and i have to figure out that whole MBR deal as well since i had to use a non-ibm build of windows. Partition magic isn't allowed to access from boot....so that really messes things up.
     @#$! those guys who cut TVSU.

    Go into C>Drivers>Win because all of your installed drivers are there, but need to be unpacked.
    What I mean by that is that for audio driver you'd go into C>Drivers>Win>Audio and run the setup file from there.
    Hope this helps.

  • When I try to instal latest version of iTunes onto my computer I get error messages, and then the only way for me to access iTunes is to do a System Restore to and earlier restore point

    When I try to install the latest version of iTunes, during the installation I get error messages saying that a program is trying to change registry and the installation is stopped.
    After this happens the only way that I can open iTunes is to do a 'system restore' to an earlier time.
    Has anyone else experienced this and can you help?

    Could you please post the exact text of the error message or provide a screenshot?
    There is advice on issues with the update at  Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates. One of the entries in the further information section refers to a possible registry permissions problem which might be what you are seeing.
