Installation Problem with my Sound Blaster Audigy Li

I own a Win XP 64 bit Edition and want to install my soundcard.
But there is no driver for my Soundblaster.
Please help, the Model Number is SB000.
Cause i installed linux next to windows i saw, that it is identified as an SB Li've! 5. so i downloaded that 64 bit driver.
The Installer runs throw the process, but there does not appear any WHQL message or anything.
After reboot there is still no SB installed.
Please help me.Message Edited by Good_Will_Hear on 07-27-2006 2:7 PM

Got one right >here, but it's a Beta driver. Meaning, it may or may not work, and it's unsupported. Your sound card is a Li've! 5., which wasn't really designed for x64.
Good luck!

Multiple problems with Creative Sound Blaster Live X-Gamer CT4

First I'd like to point out that I'm lacking the installation CDs, the manual, etc.
My problem is the following: I've downloaded what I think are the appropriate drivers for this sound card from the Creative Labs site. Correct me if I'm wrong or if I actually have to re-download a driver installation package from some other place in particular
Ok, concretely, my problem is that the drivers either are not matching, or there's something wrong with my card (it slows down my system on the startup)
Here are some pics of my current situation:

Please forgive me I'm having some type of problem with uploading images and showing them here directly.
BTW, there's some type of "cord" in the sound card that isn't plugged into anything in my computer. Do I need to connect it somewhere?

Try this. I also have the ISO image for the CD and I can send it to you but it's 540MB and require you to provide me a place to upload to.

Problems with Creative Sound Blaster Live 24-

In device manager, the SB Li've shows up as
multimedia device instead of SB Li've, the SB Li've disc starts the
install and then says I need to insert the SB disc (the disc has no
scratches), and when I ran dxdiag.exe, I got the following results.
Thanks for your support. DirectSound test results: Failure at step 3
(DirectSoundCreate): HRESULT = 0x8878000a (The request failed because
DirectSound resources, such as the priority level, were already in use
by another caller.)
I tried uninstalling the card from Windows, removing the card from my system, rebooting, powering off, and reinserting it in a new slot, but that didn't work.

I've had problems in the past with soundcards, ect. Try going to control panel/ system / Hardware tab / Device Manager / Sound, video and game controllers and see if you can remove the hardware (your soundcard) by right clicking and removing it. Reboot the computer and the computer should be trying to detect a new piece hardware while you still have your soundcard in the computer. When the Wizard comes up, install the disk and let the Wizard from Windows do the installation.
You want the cd installation do the install. Then after you have the software installed, you can go into the properties of your hardware and see that the drivers/devices are working properly.

What's the model number of your soundcard? Certain series of Sound Blaster doesn't support adjusting bass and treble so you have to use the Graphic Equalizer software instead to adjust it.

Sound Blaster Audigy with 5.1 Speakers prob

I have 5. speakers with a sound blaster audigy sound card. I've installed all the drivers and additional programs but it looks like my 2 rear speakers are not working. I thought maybe it was some kind of speaker problem but when i switched the 2 rear with the 2 front then the rear worked but front didn't. In the surround mixer i tested the 5. and here are the results:
- Front Left (Sound: OK, Speaker: OK)
- Center (Sound: NO SOUND)
- Front Right (Sound: OK, Speaker: OK)
- Rear Left (Sound: OK, Speaker: NO - The sound comes from the center speaker)
- Rear Right (Sound NO - It sounds very strange... bearly you can understand the words, Speaker: NO - The sound comes from the center speaker)
The wired are set correctly i checked it and I dont know what it might be wrong. Drivers are ok and everything are installed. Help please.

"I thought maybe it was some kind of speaker problem but when i switched the 2 rear with the 2 front then the rear worked but front didn't."
Does this not indicate two of the speakers are not physically working? Or have a mis-interpreted?

Sound Blaster Audigy installed - How do I play Auxillary inp

I connected my li've dri've with my Sound Blaster Audigy (). After doing this, I installed the drivers from the website below. However, I only installed the program "Creative Sound Blaster Audigy, Audigy 2 series and Audigy 4 series Driver 02.08.0004."
That program doesn't come with anything (as far as I can tell) that will let me listen to the audio coming in through the auxillary plug on the Li've Dri've. Does anyone know what I need to install so I can listen to stuff through my li've dri've?

Thank you very much and sorry for the dumb question.

Ok, so, here's the deal...
I uninstalled and reinstalled the driver according to this (http://ask.americas.creative.com/SRVS/CGI-BIN/WEBCGI.EXE?New,Kb=ww_english_add,U={B8F6030-DA4F-D3-94F4-00500463020E},Company={CEAE26D-879-4C00-AC9F-03BC258F7B70},d=3025443648,VARSET=ws:http://us.creative.com,case=72). However, I did not have the installation CD so I used the driver I downloaded, but everything seemed to work fine and sound played fine. Problem is, when I open windows "Play Control" I do have an auxilliary option, but sound still does not play out of the auxillary option.
I tried again to use "Li'veDrvUni-Pack(ENG).exe", but it again gave me the message "Setup could not detect any Sound Blaster Audio card on your system. Please ensure that your Sound Blaster hardware is properly installed before running this Setup program. Setup will now exit."
Please someone help me I'm trying to get my new Sirius to play through my auxillary and I just can't seem to get this to work. I have the IDE cable connected from the Li've Dri've to the card and the black cord connected from the card to the driver and, with this same setup, the card worked fine on a different computer. Is there some software I need to download for the card? The only thing that came with the driver package was the driver and "Creative Audio Console" and I have no other Creative programs whatsoever.
Thank you for all your help. I'm sorry to be such a newbie, but I really want to make this work.
Why are you trying to install the Li'veDrvUni-Pack(ENG), if you got an Audigy series card?
I think the Li'veDrvUni-Pack(ENG) is intented for SB Li've! cards and not for Audigy.
If you have an "OEM"/"Var pack" version of the card then you perhaps need to patch the installation using ctcomp.exe
(you'll find the link and instructions by searching the file from this forum).

Sound Blaster Audigy Platinum creating hard re

Greetings. Looking for insight on what I might do to alleviate a problem I am having with a Sound Blaster Audigy Platinum sound card and dri've.
This is the original Audigy Platinum. I am running windows XP pro with all sevice packs installed.
Installation of this new unit went well. No hardware or software conflicts and the card and audio "dri've" worked on the first attempt. All software also installed properly.
Unfortunately, when playing any audio through the system continuously for over a minute or so, the system begins to have trouble. This trouble is exerienced independent of what software or media type is playing the audio.
First, the sytem will have momentary "hangs" where the audio will be interrupted by a monotone electronic beep lasting from a fraction of a second to a couple of seconds long. The audio will then resume from the point it had left off when the tone began. If I continue to play audio after these tones begin, the system will shortly thereafter go through a hard reset. (By hard reset I mean an immediate return to memory count, bios screen and then startup as if I had pressed the reset button or the power had been interrupted)
The ONLY time this takes place is when I have been playing some sort of continuous audio.
As I said, if anyone has experienced this and has any insight as to the cause or more importantly the remedy to to the problem, I would appreciate the input.
Thanks.
JP

No comments on this?
Just hoping someone will be able to help me so I can use my audio files once again.

Windows XP Sound Blaster Audigy FX Support

How do I get my Sound Blaster Audigy FX to work with Windows XP. First it doesn't find the device. Then the cd that came with it says it needs Windows Vista to work. Please Help!

I have a new Emachine T3508 512MB with Windows XP (I plan to add a second 512MB). I also plan to purchase/upgrade with the Sound Blaster Audigy SE sound card. Is the Creative Inspire T3030 2.1 Speaker System compatible with my T3508 & the Sound Blaster? I think it should be but I wanted to hear it from someone who knows more than I do. Thanks guys.
To be honest, this is a pointless post. You're going to have to check your machine to see if there's an additional PCI slot that can take on the audigy SE. If so, then you already know your inspire t3030 can be used. Even the onboard sound with your motherboard should be able to take it on (assuming your emachines PC has onboard sound). I hate buying emachines, HP, and Compaq PCs they lack expandability.

Sound Blaster Audigy 2 ZS Internal Drive (Upgrade Opti

I own a Sound Blaster Audigy 2 ZS, and in the instruction manual and on your website you mention a Internal Dri've Upgrade Option like the one that comes with the Sound Blaster Audigy 2 Platinum. My question is i have found similar products available for the Sound Blaster Li've series, but i have not found that product available as an upgrade for the audigy 2 zs. Could you tell me if it is not in production or if the li've di've IR is compatible with the audigy 2 zs. Also the manual noted a adapter needed for the spdif out, were is that available?

Trouble with my Sound Blaster

? I've recently started using my HP a6250z desktop computer again, but I seem to be having some problems with my Sound Blaster X-fi Extreme Audio. It's got the newest drivers for the system, so I rule that out. On to the problems though, first, I can't use any microphones, I plug my set into the jack in the back marked with a microphone and nothing happens. Second, this may be part of the system, but should I have to restart my computer every time I plug in a new pair of speakers/headphones or should the computer adjust automatically? Third, sometimes, the sound will just cease working and will not work until I restart my computer, I can't identify any real correlation to anything that I do when this occurs. I'd really appreciate any help that anyone has with these and any possible avenues for me to look down when it comes to finding help.
Thank you,
kinzey37

Does your Xtreme Audio card come with the system? Was your driver installed dated - 2007 version 6.0..28? If so it would seem very old. I'm not sure the drivers on the driver download site will work with the card that came with your desktop. Another alternati've you can try is to use daniel k's SB P7X support pack. http://forums.creative.com/creativel...hread.id=39754

Error with Sound Blaster Audigy 2 installation...driv

Hi
I am really stuck with this issue and was wondering if someone out there could help. I have an Audigy 2, and have had it working for a long period of time. I had to re install Windows not so long ago and since then I have found a number of errors with my sound.
Firstly there are a lot of pops and clicks when either gaming or playing audio files. Admittedly the pops and clicks happen a lot more when gaming (multiple sounds playing at once ?).
Therefore I decided to come onto creatives site and download the new drivers for my sound card. I was still running the original drivers from the CD supplied, so felt it was about time.
I downloaded the file SBA2_PCWDRV_LB__84_55-R, which is the correct update for my card and tried to install it.
It comes up with a message:
Setup could not detect and Sound Blaster Audigy 2 on you system.
Please ensure that your sound blaster hardware is properly installed before running this setup program.
setup will not exit
After that message i was a little confused, because as far as I was concerned everything was working ok, sound was coming out and was coming out correctly from my 5. surround system.
So i double clicked on the Creative Volume Control to check everything was on.
I'm not sure if this is an error but a long the top where you select the output device mine says:
SB Audigy [A000]
I'm not 00% sure but I don't think it said that before, I think it said something else, but I could be wrong.
I decided to uninstall my sound card and re-install. Everything installed absolutely fine from the CD, recognised the card and no complaints.
So I tried to re-install the driver update, and same message. (And the output device is still SB Audigy [A000].
Again I uninstalled and tried the Beta patch on the off chance that that would work, still nothing, it does not recognise the card in my computer.
I definately have an Audigy 2 and it has worked properly allowing me to update it before.
Sorry to have such a long message, but I am really confused about all of this and would really like to get everything working properly.
Any advice and help would be appreciated.
Thanks

fedepolito,
I assume that you are running WinXP with Service Pack 3. Did you do a clean sweep of all the Creative Software and reinstall from the A2ZS CD? Do you get sound then?
Me disculpo que no entend?a que todo que usted dijo en su poste. Asumo que usted est? funcionando Windows XP con el Service Pack 3. ?Usted hizo un retiro del barrido limpio de todo el Creative software? (Busque los foros para el "clean sweep." ) ?Despu?s de eso, cuando usted reinstala del CD de Audigy 2 ZS, usted consigue el sonido?

Yes it is called trying to install the wrong driver for your card. Will work much better if you try installing the correct one,
SBAX_PCDRV_LB_2_8_000.exe
Also helps if you click on the "Show Details" link on the download page, then you would see that the one you tried to install doesn't support your card,
Requirements:
Microsoft Windows Vista 64-bit, Windows Vista 32-bit, Windows XP Professional x64 Edition, Windows XP Service Pack 2, Windows XP Media Center Edition 2005 or Windows XP Media Center Edition 2004
Sound Blaster Audigy Value/SE/LS, or Sound Blaster Li've! 24-bit audio devices
whereas the correct driver shows the following,
This download supports the following audio devices only:
Creative Sound Blaster Audigy including Platinum and Platinum eX series
Creative Sound Blaster Audigy 2 including Platinum, Platinum eX, and Value series
Creative Sound Blaster Audigy 2 ZS including Platinum and Platinum Pro series
Creative Sound Blaster Audigy 4 Pro and Sound Blaster Audigy 4
