Inspire (creative) P7800 7.1 and Vista

Ok so i?just bought?the creative inspire p7800 7. surround speaker system. I have windows VISTA-32 I already know there is no driver for it yet, but I was just wondering if anyone could tell me when its release date is? can i go somewhere to request it,i know it wouldnt make much of a difference, but always counts somewhere. Also is there maybe some other way i can get my system working? right now I only have?the front 3 working. So any input would be nice thank you ?

No way buddy, I've an Inspire P7800 too, if you see de miniplugs conectors there's one of them that isn't stereo, there're 3 black lines into the connector (creative's "special" connector) that only works with a creative sound card... but I worst cases... you many be able to hear 6 channels instead 4... I recommend you to downalod lastest Sigmatel audio from their website http://www.sigmatel.com/products/pcaudio/ If it isn't work, and you have to buy and audio card... DONT BUY CREATIVE!!!!!! send ur bucks in an AUZENTECH X-meridian 7. that really works in vista, I own an Audigy SE (VISTA READY sticker on box)... and I have year waiting for vista drivers... dont waste ur time buddy and good luck!

Creative suite web standard and vista 32 bit

Since purchasing a new computer with Vista my old web software which ran fine on XP is now obsolete and I need to purchase new.
What is the lowest version of the Adobe Creative Suite Web Standard that will work on Vista Home Basic SP1 with media 32 Edition? The CS2 design software is working fine, it's just the web suite I need but I've seen some postings where their version of CS2 didn't work?
Also, any suggestions on where to get the best price?

Thanks. Well, I think from your response I should be alright with the laptop/ cs4. Although, now I question another aspect...you stated that vista 64 should have 6gb, the laptop that was "designed" only has 4gb. Part of the reason I am questioning everything is that I need to make sure this laptop will work w/ everything otherwise I am sending it back, I have unfortunitly found that it is not compatible with my wireless internet service. So either I send it back and reorder with vista 32 or purchase different wireless service. I would prefer not to send the laptop back, but now I am questioning every aspect of it so that hopefully 6mo. from now I don't say "I guess I should have ordered....." , I was just assuming that the info I was not sure about while ordering the computer is why there are "designers/ professionals" available to talk to.
Anyway, here are is some info on the laptop:
Studio 1537, Intel core 2 duo T6400, 2.0GHz, 800Mhz, 2M L2 cache
4GB, DDR2, 800MHz 2 Dimm
256MB ATI mobility radeon HD 3450
320G 5400RPM SATA hard drive

Creative Mediasource 5 Player and Vista SP1

Hello there...
Having updated to SP today, I noticed that the MediaSource 5 Player no longer works:
Application name:
CTCMSu.exe
5.2.3.0
I have uninstalled/re-installed, to no avail.
Anyone know of a fix?
Creative: Please sort this!
Edit: Application was faulty prior to SP. Had to go back to a previous image to recover. Anyone have the same problem with an APPCrash with CTCMSu.exe?

Cheers OG...
I like the Creative player because it has a great sound with the "Crystalizer" and so on. After it, all other media players sound flat!
Not so good tho' if the software stops working for no reason tho'!!
Thnx for the suggestion. I will try yr options out.

Creative suite 4 web premium and vista 64

Hi. I just purchases a new laptop and it has vista 64. I need to know if there have been any problems running the programs on creative suite web 4 with vista 64; or is this a better combo than vista 32? Thanks for any info.

A message to Creative from the Linux and geek users commun

Please pardon the possible misspellings/syntax errors in this post, as English is not my nati've language. I am still confident that you will grasp the essence of my message. Thank you.
I have been following the downfall of Creative in the last few days, and all I can say is : You had it coming. I am another customer who was decei'ved by buying one of your expensi've product. I spent 450$ on your X-Fi Elite pro, only to wait endlessly for stable vista drivers, which are still unstable and crippled. Yes, I know you had problems with how Microsoft changed completely its audio API a few months before launching, but the fact is that this is stuff that can happen, and you had to allocate more budget in order to develop drivers quickly to satisfy your customers. Instead, you just ignored us. And now you're paying for it.
It's kind of sad that your stock price is falling, but at the same time, it's about time the consumers could unite and get their revenge, and you are actually paying for laughing in our faces for so long. I have been waiting and waiting for a driver for Linux, since you would not provide stable drivers for Vista. Your website dedicated to open source drivers looks like it was coded in 995, with crappy graphics, just to show us that you don't care. And after waiting for over a year for drivers, you gave us a non-working driver, and you won't post any updates at all. ?
I shell out 450$ for an X-FI Elite Pro, and you laugh into my face, not once (with sub-par drivers for Vista and a long wait), but twice with your non-working Linux drivers ? I'm disgusted.
I wish your corporate people would understand what just happened, and listen to us, the geeky consumers, who buy, recommend, and install your products for themselves, customers, friends, and family. ? But I know that it does not work that way. Your marketing people, your legal department, your finance departement and all your corporate structure don't CARE about the end-user, but you have made a big mistake by ignoring us all these years. If you want to save your company, you really, really need to open up and develop a totally different relationship with your customer base. But knowing how this works, I'm sure that :?
. Nobody important in the company structure will take time to read this thread, hoping it will go away, and thinking that the new product lines will make us forget all of this;
2. You will not take this Public Relations Disaster seriously and think it will simply disapear
Well let me tell you what's gonna happen : Don't underestimate us, your customers. We will remember what happened in the past few days, but also how you treated us in the past few years. Unless you radically change your practices, and really show good faith, you are certainly going down. I, for one, am considering selling my X-Fi Elite Pro and rely only on onboard sound because at least the drivers work on all available platforms. But if you only knew how I wished to have decent support under Linux or Vista ! But you don't even talk with us, you provide crappy drivers and then forget us !? That's not the way to treat us !? So, unless you provide more than your little PR stunt of april st, where you don't even apologize and recognize your lack of support, I will never buy any of your products again, and I will tell everybody I know to stay away from your products.
Be aware : This is not a feeling that will go away in a few weeks/few months. I have been using Creative Cards since 996, and have always been a loyal customer, but I implore you to change, and to do it fast. I really hope you do.
Thank you for your time. ?

Thank you Igor, your article is very interesting indeed, and thanks for the other responses as well, it is really appreciated.
I recently tried OSS on Linux, which offers partial support for the X-FI, but with no success. I fear that without any proper documentation provided to ALSA, the complexity of the X-Fi hardware won't allow the development of acceptable drivers for Linux anytime soon. As for Creative development for Linux, well, just go and check out their support page : http://opensource.creative.com/soundcard.html.
It is beyond my comprehension as to why Creative simply refuses to document its hardware. I mean, I know about IP considerations and such, but the reality is that Creative has a very large part of the market for high-end audio products, and they do not have yet any serious competitors for the gaming/music enthusiast market who don't want to rely on onboard audio. (I know about M-Audio and a few others, but they mainly appeal to profesionals). So, to document their hardware for the open source community has more benefits than risks, since they don't have to pay for driver development, and since they almost sued daniel_K, I'm not afraid that their legal department would track anyone who would try to breach any IP rights by developing some hardware with the documentation they would release. So WHY ? WHY Creative, won't you release proper documentation? Why won't you help us help you ? Is it just by ideology ? That opening your code is bad ? Well, you're wrong. ?
But it may not be too late, should you *AT LEAST* provide us communication about what's going on at Creative regarding open source. Is it that hard for a Multinational Firm to hire a few developers to develop a driver for Linux ? Why won't you put up a blog for your developer, who can talk about what they're doing, what are the limitations, the hurdles, but at least show a little transparency and stop pretending you really care. ?

Mp3 Player not detected in Vista ,I need drivers for Creative Zen Micro in Windows Vista 32-b

Hi ,?Im trying to install my Creative Zen Micro in windows Vista , But A Compatibility Problem appear and i can't install it .Windows Show me that a new hardware is found? and what i have to do , i Install it with the CD , but The installation can't be successful and a message saying me i have to contact Creative Support for the dirvers appear and the installation can't be completed. I've tryied to contact creative suport , but they don't find solution . I've searched the drivers but they wasn't found in creative site web . If anybody Have a solution for install my zen micro or can help me , please ... I have to buy another Mp3 Player ? This have a solution ?Thanks ,i hope that you can help me. Regards

I updated my Firmware as stated by Creative Labs support team. I downloaded on my son's PC which has Window's XP Pro edition. Again, on his PC there is no problem with recognition of the device and/or player. However, when I plug my player into my PC which has Vista, the device manager has a "!" next to ZEN Micro Photo. So my PC "See's" the player. However, when you right click and then go to "Properties" it states that "The drivers for this device are not installed (code 28)" Then it states to "reinstall the drivers" But when I tried to install or reinstall the "Driver" using the install wizard, I get an error message... "An error occurred during the installation of the device" and " A service installation section in this INF is invalid" Then a pop bubble appears and says "Found new hardware" You may have a problem with your device. It may not be working properly" So what do I do at this point. The only way for me currently to download music is to use my son's PC. At least I have another option... I feel sorry for the rest of you. When will creative wake up and smell the Vista!!

Zen Micro and Vista? - Sol

I am trying to get my Zen Micro (DAP-MD0004) to work with Vista to no avail. It is loaded with the latest firmware (PlaysForSure - I dont think so!!!) and Vista picks it up and installs the driver no problem.However, if I try to view music through My Computer it doesnt show anything. Windows Media Player doesnt work either because its WMP. The sync windows just keeps saying to connect a device. I have installed Creative MediaSource 5 Organizer with plugin and even though it picks up my Zen, when I try to view my music it doesnt respond and I have to kill it.Has anybody got any advice for me I have already searched the forums for Zen Micro and Vista and I have found nothing to help me. Is Creative looking into the problem of people not being able to put music onto their devices

I have finally got it to work.Here is what I did for anyone that is having the same problem:
Boot the Zen to Recovery Mode (Remove battery, hold switch in on position, and insert battery)
Run a Clean Up
Run a Format
Reboot
Install Creative MediaSource 5 Organizer with PlaysForSure Plugin
Connect Zen Micro to computer and run MediaSource
You should now be able to copy music from your computer to your Zen.
I am disappointed that I couldn't copy my music off the device first but hey-ho.
I am also disappointed that the latest version of MediaSource requires you to purchase a pack to convert music to MP3.
It never fails to amaze me what businesses will do to try and get more money from us consumers.

I am very annoyed at the Creative Cloud set up and the non-stop issues and problems

I am very annoyed at the Creative Cloud set up and the non-stop issues and problems! I am paying monthly for this service and it is constantly failing in some way! So far in three months I have had to uninstall and re-install Photoshop THREE times because it stopped working properly and Illustrator I have had to do that same to TWICE! That isn't including the other apps that have had issues! I don't have the time to constantly be un-installing and re-installing all or some of the Creative Cloud because your developers are not making a product that works consistently for the money you are charging! It is costing me more than just this monthly fee! And I am even less impressed with the fact that I cannot email someone for assistance in resolving these issues. Really Adobe?

Windows XP Pro (32-bit) and Vista Ultimate (64-bit) on the same Mac Pro HD?

Has anyone been able to install both Windows XP Pro (32-bit) and Windows Vista Ultimate (64-bit) on the same dedicated Windows hard drive? I have four HD in my Mac Pro, and one of them is dedicated for Windows (and bootable via Boot Camp). I found the following technical articles about installing Windows XP & Vista on the same hard drive (using two separate partitions) using a VMWare machine as the test system:
http://apcmag.com/howto_dual_boot_vista_and_xp_with_vista_installed_first__the_stepbystepguide.htm

Has anyone successfully installed Windows XP (32-bit) and Vista 64-bit) on the same NTFS partition?
I already have Windows XP Pro (32-bit) SP3 installed on my single NTFS hard drive. I am looking for the best way to add the Vista 64-bit installation on the same hard drive.
Any thoughts and advise are appreciated.

Windows has its own list of boot OSs, and default, from msconfig. It will sit and wait for xx-seconds on startup in Windows if you want to boot from an alternate.
As to whether Apple's OS Switcher (aka startup disk bootcamp control panel or tray icon) sees both, I had Windows Home Premium and Ultimate 64, and pretty sure OS X saw both. That was pre-Leopard and before there were 64-bit Apple drivers.
I can't think of any scenerio of wanting to mix 32-bit and 64-bit on the same paritition, you realize you can't install the one over the other and must do a clean install.
When I added a partition out of main partition (I wanted to put search index and page file on their own partition) those partitions aren't seen - are hidden - to Leopard.

But the problem was that i could not see a download link. but after a little while i convinced microsoft to give it to me. at first it looked like it had potential but after i restarted, every went down the plug hole. here is the link that i was talking about.

What OS version? What's the exact error? Exactly when does the error occur? What previous versions? What is on the screen when the error displays? Does Photoshop get fully open?
Try opening Photoshop holding down Shift key immediately to turn off plug-ins. Lots of good suggestions here: Photoshop: Basic Troubleshooting steps to fix most issues

I ordered the full creative cloud on sunday and received an order number but still can't open any of the programs. When i check the status of my order online, it says it can't find it. Is this normal after 3 days? I tried asking in a chat window instead of the forum but no one answered and after about ten minutes my screen restarted and closed the chat window down. It seems a little frustrating not knowing what happened to my order and not being able to contact anyone. Is all this usual with Adobe or are they just having technical problems this week?
