Installed New Drivers for SB Audigy2 ZS; Now My Sound Has the "Underwater" Eff

I installed the latest drivers for the SB Audigy2 ZS and I noticed that my sound now has that "underwater" effect. Sorry if I can't exactly explain it better, but I think you know what I'm talking about. I went to go play The Sims 2 after I installed the new drivers and my Sims are talking as is they are talking underwater! lol I really can't explain it. And I have Windows XP is that helps any......
Any thoughts on this?
thanks

Click on Start> ALL Programs > Creative > Creative Audio Console.
Make sure speakers are set to 5. if that's what you're using. I like to Synchronize with Windows Control Panel. Turn EAX to No effects, and/or turn effects to 0%. On the CMSS 3D Tab, turn the Mode to OFF.

  • Installing new Drivers for Audigy 2

    I'm currently playing Vanguard and was told I should update my sound drivers. The drivers I have came with the system and I think they're like from 2005. SO... I have the new drivers but I've had experience in the past of installing sound drivers and never getting the sound to come back. The last time I tried doing it I just rolled my system back to a restore point after giving up on getting the sound back.
    Is there a secret to doing it's From my understanding...you just run the application from Creative and it should uninstall the old drivers and install the new ones. That all goes as planned but when I reboot (as prompted) I never have sound. I'm not sure if I'm forgetting to do something or just missing something.
    Any suggestions?
    Thanks so much.

    I haven't had troubles installing updated sound drivers before. Try uninstalling the old ones first and start fresh with the new ones. If it is an upgrade ONLY (needs current drivers), and you have had issues in the past, then i would backup before doing so.
    I haven't had any issues with sound drivers before, sorry i couldn't be more help.

  • How do I install bluetooth drivers for photosmart 3200 when I don't have the disk

    This is for a photosmart 3200 on Vista 64bit

    It does not work because you are running Mavericks and trying to use non-Mavericks drivers for an operating system (XP) that is not support on your hardware or your operating system.

  • I was downloading the latest update for my ipad and now my ipad has the itunes icon and chord on the front but won't turn on or be found in my itunes or computer?

    I was attempting to download the latest update to my ipad which was to take 2 hours so i left it alone, when I came back my ipad would not turn on, now it has the itunes icon and a plug on the front, what does this mean?  And now it can't be recognized on my computer at all?
    I did a restore but nothing has happened.  How do I get it to come back on?

    You'll have to restore your iPad.  With your iPad still connected to your computer, press and hold BOTH the power and home buttons at the SAME time and your iPad will restore. 

  • "Extraction Failed: Cannot Open Output File" error message when installing new drivers

    Hello, I'm trying to install new drivers for my HP Photosmart C4385 Printer.  I downloaded the full feature drivers for Windows XP 32-bit, and when I start to install (extract), I get the error message:
    Extraction Failed
    Cannot Open Output File
    And the process closes.  It happens at about 85% extraction every time.
    Any idea why?  I called HP but since it is out of warranty they wanted money, which I think as absolutely ridiculous - won't even give me basic support??  Poor, poor customer service.
    This question was solved.
    View Solution.

    Hi,
    If you haven't still got the  Full Feature software installer, download it from the link below and save it to your Desktop.  If you already have it, place it on your Desktop.
    ftp://ftp.hp.com/pub/softlib/software10/COL20274/mp-53147-4/100_228_PS_AIO_02_Full_USW_enu_NB.exe
    Make sure the Printer is disconnected from your PC.
    Download and install 7-ZIP.  Once installed, right click on the software installer for your printer, select 7-Zip and choose extract files, then click Ok.
    Open the newly extracted folder and double click the setup application to start the installation ( the setup application will probably have the same icon as the original software installer you downloaded ).  Connect the printer to your PC when the software asks.
    Hope this helps.
    Best wishes,

  • Uninstalled epson printer from control panel...installed new brother printer....now i cannot print anything .pdf old or newly downloaded

    uninstalled epson printer from control panel...installed new brother printer....now i cannot print anything .pdf old or newly downloaded@

    For starters, what exactly do you mean by "cannot print"?
    Are you getting an error message? Are you trying to print from within Reader or are you opening these in the browser? What version of Reader. Even though it's a new printer, the drivers that came with it (or the ones that were already on your computer) may be old so, have you downloaded the most recent drivers from the Brother site?

  • Wireless problem since installing new drivers z61p

    I recently restored back to factory default for everything. Then happily headed over to lenovo drivers to download all new drivers for my Z61p (win xp) .
    got my sound running
    downloaded intel wireless driver
    got new access conections (since i was having a problem where the wireless would not switch on [using the Fn + F5..it just would not switch on] - managed to get it to now switch on at least)
    however now when i  switch my machine on i get an error message saying intel wireless management has to shut down - do i want to send an error report (i did..no response yet..if ever)?
    then
    access conections tells cant link to the wireless router..it simply finds nothing when i tell it to look for a network - never mind actually link to my preset office router
    digging a bit below the surface
    intel wants to report that i have the wrong driver installed (so i went back to the drivers site and downloaded again and installed again..no joy)
    as does access conections..(did the same re install...no joy)
    Do i have the wrong drivers?
    the site i used was:http://www-307.ibm.com/pc/support/site.wss/document.do?sitestyle=lenovo&lndocid=MIGR-64278
    then for intel the one called:
    Intel PRO/Wireless 2200bg, 2915abg, 3945bg, 3945abg, 4965ag, 4965agn Mini PCI adapter
    and then:
    ThinkVantage Access Connections
    am i being"dumb"?
    any help/ advice welcome.."other than just run the install file again"
    is there another source of drivers i could use?

    Got this sorted.

  • Installing LAN drivers for gx720, how?

    Hi,
    I did a fresh OS reinstall (Vista 32bit) and now need to install drivers. I have a CD with drivers of course but I'd like to apply the drivers from the MSI website download section since they're probably newer.
    I'm having trouble installing the RealTek LAN drivers, though (on the site, the driver's is specifically listed as 'Realtek 811X PCI-E Gigabit Ethernet NIC' on the following page: http://eu.msi.com/index.php?func=downloaddetail&type=driver&maincat_no=135&prod_no=1521). Without these, I cannot use direct LAN connection for ie. internet access.
    Thus, the specific download file I'm having trouble with is this: http://download1.msi.com/files/downloads/dvr_exe/realtek_lan_v_nb.zip. Because it is a 'clean' package with no setup program or executable file, I don't know how to install it. I suspect a simple overwrite of original files (in Windows folder) is NOT the way to install this. For all I know I need to use the .INF file to install but I have no idea how this is done.
    Being a fairly advanced user yet never having come across this kind of problem before, I do recommend documentation of installation procedure be included in said file for other users' sake.
    Thanks in advance for replies!

    You just caught me at the right time, with an easy question to answer!
    Good luck!

  • How can I install gutenprint drivers for my Epson Stylus Color 440?

    Good day all!
    I have and old and useful printer -Epson Stylus Color 440- and just bougth a cable for connecting it to USB port. Add a new print on its Print and Scan Preference Panel and it was recognized inmediatly, but I was told there was not any driver to that printer.
    Tried to set "Epson Stylus Color Series" on its driver but when I went to print, printer seemed to work but does not eject any ink. It seemed as if I were ran out of ink; its car moved over the places occupied by the photo and sounded as normal printing, but not a drop of ink. I checked on an older windows pc, and ink is full, printed normally. I also looked for its drivers on Epson pages, but it seems there are only available for previos Mac OSs, not for X.
    A son told me that in his Snow Leopard MacBook White there's a dirver called "Epson Stylus Color 440 gutenprint" on his Print and Scan Driver Menu; haven't tried to print from his MacBook yet, and as I searched, those are open drivers.
    I wonder if I can download and install that "Epson Stylus Color 440 gutenprint" from the web, of if there's a way to copy it from my son's Macbook, when he comes and check.
    Thanks in advance for your help.

  • I've installed windows 7 with the help of bootcamp on my macbook pro 2011. Please help me how to install mac drivers for windows7 64 bit???

    I've installed windows 7 with the help of bootcamp on my macbook pro 2011.
    Please help me how to install mac drivers for windows7 64 bit???

    You either download drivers from within Boot Camp Assistant and save to USB FAT disk, or you insert and use 10.6.x OS X DVD when in Windows and install and run the SETUP from there.

    Step 4: Install the Boot Camp Drivers for Windows
    After installing Windows, install Mac-specific drivers and other software for Windows using your Mac OS X installation disc.  The Mac OS X disc installs drivers to support Mac components, including AirPort,built-in iSight camera, the Apple Remote, the trackpad on a portable Mac, and thefunction keys on an Apple keyboard. 
    The Mac OS X disc also installs the Boot Camp control panel for Windows and theApple Boot Camp system tray item.
    To install the Boot Camp drivers:
    1 Eject the Windows installation disc.
    2 Insert the Mac OS X disc.  If the installer doesn’t start automatically, browse the disc using Windows Explorerand double-click the setup.exe file in the Boot Camp directory.
    3 Follow the onscreen instructions.
    If a message appears that says the software you’re installing has not passed Windows  Logo testing, click Continue Anyway.
    Windows that appear only briefly during the installation don’t require your input.
    If nothing appears to be happening, there may be a hidden window that you mustrespond to. Check the taskbar and look behind open windows.
    Important: Do not click the Cancel button in any of the installer dialogs.
    4 After your computer restarts, follow the instructions in the Found New Hardware  Wizard to update your software drivers (Windows XP only).
    5 Follow the instructions for any other wizards that appear.
    6 Check for updated Boot Camp drivers by using Apple Software Update or going to www.apple.com/support/bootcamp.
      If You Have Problems Installing the Device Drivers 
    If it appears that the Boot Camp drivers weren’t successfully installed, try repairing them.
    To repair Boot Camp drivers:
    1 Start up your computer in Windows.
    2 Insert your Mac OS X installation disc.
    3 If the installer doesn’t start automatically, browse the disc using Windows Explorerand double-click the setup.exe file in the Boot Camp directory.
    4 Click Repair and follow the onscreen instructions.
    If a message appears that says the software you’re installing has not passed Windows  Logo testing, click Continue Anyway. 
    If you need to reinstall specific drivers, you can install one driver at a time. For example,if your built-in iSight camera isn’t working, you can reinstall just the iSight driver.
    Individual drivers are in the Drivers folder on the Mac OS X installation disc.

  • How to install additional drivers for a shared photosmart c6180?

    Hi, i am running windows 7 x64 and i have shared a photosmart c6180 on the pc.  I need to add additional 32bit drivers so that pc's that run xp 32 bit can print to the shared printer (i cannot connect these other pc's directly to the printer via network).  any way, under the sharing tab in printer properties, i can click on 'additional drivers' and choose x86, but then it asks for a driver location.  what location do i specify?  i've already tried c:\windows and c:\windows\system32, but it does not pick up any drivers at those locations.  i've also downloaded all of the latest drivers from the hp site, but when i run the executable and specify their extracted locations, for example, c:\users\user1\appdata\temp\7Z139A\, it does not see any drivers there either.
    any help is greatly appreciated!
    thanks!

    You wont be able to use exiting Win XP drivers on windows 7. You need to get new drivers for Windows 7, and install them as per your convenience, ie manually or automate it via script GP

  • Apple 's new drivers for Canon printers

    Apple has just released new drivers for Canon printers. I have an i9900 inkjet printer which is not listed in the supported printers. Will the driver work for me or am I out of luck?
    Thanks.

    The driver update is supplied to Apple from Canon, who has made the decision to end support for the i9900. They actually ended support several versions previously.
    So to print from Mavericks to the i9900 you can download and install Gutenprint v5.2.9 which lists the i9900 as a supported device.

    I've had my new iMac for about a week now and am totally sick ofthe vagueries of Mavericks,
    I would appreciate any help you guys could give me to help me 'downgrade' to Mountain Lion.
    I understand that Mountain Lion has never been released on disc, so that would seem to be the major problem.
    Thanks in advance

    If the Mac came pre-installed with Mavericks you can't downgrade. Have a look at mine and den.thed's comments here:
