Installing a previously working live 5.1 card in a new PC

I have a li've 5. card and a Li've dri've (in fact I have 2 of each), both previously working in other machines of the pre multi-core era under XP pro.
I have just built a new machine with a multi-core processor and have stuck with win? XP pro.
I have now tried drivers that came on the CD with the card, the set that were working on the previous machines and the latest set downloaded from the creative site.
I did have a problem that the card had not inserted properly due to the metal backplate being a tad short and have now bent it to make it fit properly. I have since tried the other card also (not got round to fitting the li've dri'ves yet.
The cards (both of them) act in the same way. They pass ALL the driver/card diagnostic tests. However they only produce sound from "midi"(using the keyboard software), but not "wave" (eg windows alerts/EAX animation)?or "CD" options. . They are set to 4 speakers and produce midi sound from both the front and rear sockets.
Suggestions please!!
!!! Curiously the midi output when I used keyboard software with the previously working driver installation was a piano. When i installed the latest driver the output was a drum (suggesting the latest soundfont is screwed up)

=I am answering my own question. Cards now working fully. To get this to happen required:-
Reinstalling drivers but avoiding some of the software - n particular Play centre and Launcher
Moving the card to a PCI slot which doesn't share an IRQ, before this the function of the card was patchy, sometimes it deli'vered sound, sometimes it didn't. Also it showed obvious clashes with the video card software - this was the card sharing the IRQ

    Do you mean that it's being declined, that you are getting an error message, ... ?
    If it's a debit card then I don't think that they are still accepted as a valid payment method - they are not listed on this page and there have been a number of posts recently about them being declined
    If it is a credit card then is it registered to exactly the same name and address (including format and spacing etc) that you have on your iTunes account, it was issued by a bank in your country and you are currently in that country ? If it is then you could check with the card issuer to see if it's them that are declining it, and if not then try contacting iTunes support and see if they know why it's being declined : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page

  • When booting into my previously working Windows partition, the screen is not displaying anything. It was working before...

    Im not sure what happened but I just tried to bootinto my Windows partition and the screen is completely blank. I dont see the Windows boot logo and I eventually here the startup noise. I have also been able to logon without seeeing the screen.
    Ive done a PRAM and SMC reset and neither has helped. I suspect that a recent update on OS X may have caused video issues but I am not sure of it. All of my research has led me to a black screen during the install of Windows onto the bootcamp partition. Nothing delaing with an actual running Windows partition that just goes to black.
    Any suggestions?

    There is more than enough disk space available on the partition.
    Booting from the install CD doesnt work because I cannot seeing anything.
    Removed my install of Windows 7 via bootcamp and tried to reinstall but I got the same black screen (no backlight as usual).
    BTW, OS X does affect the Windows install. If you update the driver for the say the video card, that means that the apple drivers that are needed to run Windows are more than likely to be affected.
    Just like VMware tool running on a ESXi 4.1 host will need to be reinstalled on an ESXi 5.0 host. Same hardware but the tools on the VM need to be updated to reflect the host OS.

  • How can i get my apple id to work without a credit card?

    i try to get it to work without a credit card but it wont let me. it is not fair to me.....

    If you have an account that previously had a credit card and you're now trying to remove it, see:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts5366
    If you are trying to set up an iTunes Store account without a credit card, presuming you only want the free apps take a look here:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2534
    Read the steps carefully as the order in which you follow them is  critical. Note that you can do this only when creating a new Apple ID. You cannot use an existing ID. 
    You will of course not be able to get anything other than the free apps without entering in some sort of payment method (credit card, prepaid iTunes card, gift certificate, etc.)

  • Windows Update installed the drivers for the wrong sound card?

    I need serious help with this one.
    It all started October 31st when I find that Windows Update lists an update for my sound card - a Sound Blaster Li've! 24bit internal card. I install it, reboot, and realize that my sound is not coming through the speakers (Note, sound was working before I installed this update. I'm not even sure if the sound card is processing to it). I realized that Windows Update seemed to have installed the drivers for the wrong sound card. It installed drivers for "SB Audigy" (it was originally SB Li've!), why they chose to be so generic - I don't know. I later find out that not even Creative's website has this updated driver, but apparently, only Windows Update is issuing this out.
    But wait, it gets even more frustrating.
    So I don't have System Restore enabled (big resource hog), and I need to go back to the older drivers. I originally do a driver rollback using the Device Manager, which made the drivers go back to what they were before - but still wasn't outputting sound. I think even though the older drivers were being used by Windows, the software that Creative issued wasn't picking up this fact and thought I still using the newer ones for Audigy. So I decided to uninstall everything and start with an actual driver installation executable from Creative's website (SB24_PCDRV_LB__04_0090.exe). What I found out was that if new drivers are detected, I can't actually install over them.
    However, if I uninstall the drivers using the Device Manager, it'll automatically install everything - the control panel, the preferences, drivers, etc for the new "SB Audigy" drivers that were issued Oct 3st once I scan for hardware changes. The reason I need to scan for hardware changes is because if I uninstall the drivers from the Device Manager, it'll remove the instance of "SB Audigy" from the list. This causes problems for the installer for the older drivers (SB24_PCDRV_LB__04_0090.exe) because now it thinks there isn't any hardware to install the drivers for (all because I haven't made the Device Manager actually discover my actual sound card, yet unless I press "Scan for Hardware changes" which as a result, will install the newer drivers from Oct 3st automatically. I hope this makes sense so far).
    So now I can't uninstall the newer incorrect drivers so I can install the older ones for the actual sound card. Normally I heard that you can change something in the new driver's installation executable to properly uninstall everything. Only problem is, Windows Update doesn't exactly tell you where it's downloading the driver/hardware installation files. I know in the Software Distribution you can find Windows Update stuff downloading there - but I couldn't find the SB Audigy driver update it keeps installing while "scanning for hardware changes" in the Device Manager.
    This was incredibly hard to put into detail, so I hope that it makes a little bit of sense. If you need clarification on anything please let me know and I'll do anything to help eliminate the problem. Just remember I have:
    Windows 7 x64
    Sound Blaster Li've! 24bit
    I think the only problem I'd like to solve is - how could I install older drivers if Windows keeps installing the newer ones even after I uninstall them? Because right now, I can't do much unless I know how to get rid of the installation files for the Oct 3st update so it won't have anything to use. Another way to rephrase the question is, how could I get the Device Manager in Windows to display my soundcard as "Multimedia Audio Controller" for as long as I need so I can run SB24_PCDRV_LB__04_0090.exe which will then detect that there is a sound card that can use the drivers and install them properly?
    Thanks for your help guys, I hope we can solve this. Because I've done everything I could. Hopefully I don't need to reinstall the operating system just so I can have sound working.

    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.

  • Install Creme and MI Client on SD Card

    Hi All,
    Due to low memory in my device, I have tried install creme and mi client on SD card follwing the below instructions suggested by some one.
    +Refer the steps mentioned below for MI Client + CreMe on SD Card.....+
    Installing MI and data on SD ROM:
    1. Copy the CrEme cab and the MI cab on to the device and install them. Register the MI Client.
    2. Assign the application/addons/patches to the device, sync to get the appliation along with the data. (I have copied whole MI folder which is working in another device having db2e etc and data)
    3. Move the CrEme folder present in WindowsCrEme to the SD Card directory.
    4. Move the MI folder to SD Card directory.
    5. Move the following dlls present in Windows to SD CardCrEme in
    • CryptoPlugin.dll
    • DB2e.dll
    • DB2eJDBC.dll
    • gfw.dll
    • gfwconf.dll
    • jscp.dll
    • jscpconf.dll
    • License.dll
    6.Edit the crème_listOfJars.txt which is present in SD CardMI, change all the paths which are present in it to point to the new path. eg. MIlib ME.jar to SD CardMIlibME.jar. Also add a ‘ (quote) after -classpath and also at the end.
    ie. –classpath ‘SD CardMIlibMDSD2.0CD.jar;SD CardMIlibdb2ejdbc.jar;SD CardMIlibME.jar;’
    7.Move the MobileEngine.lnk file present in WindowsStartUp to SD Card
    8. Edit MobileEngine.lnk file. The new content should be as given below:
    +255#"SD CardCrEme inCrEme.exe" -Of -ml 64000 -bcp 'SD CardMIlibSapBigDecimal.jar' -cf 'SD CardMI
    lfont.txt' -cf 'SD CardMIcreme_listOfJars.txt' com.sap.ip.me.core.Startup '-home:/SD Card/MI'+
    9. Click on the MobileEngine.lnk file
    10.CreMe and MI should load.
    But when I gave the URL "http://localhost:4444/me...." a pop up message displaying as Cannot Connect with current connection settings. To change your connection settings, tap settings.
    Can any please suggest how to install these in SD card.
    Regards,
    Murthy.

    Hi Murthy,
    this error is a usual thing!
    You installed MI on the SD card. Problem with the WinCE operating system: the files in the startup folder are processed, before the SD card is available. So you want to start Creme, but the creme is on SD card and the sd card is not available. Unfortunately this is the problem.
    Well, either you start the MI link manually after restarting the PDA from the startup folder. When you can do that the SD card is available as well and then it should wor fine. If it is not working, then you have done some errors in the configuration (misstypo), but usually ths is the problem. Make t worse: this error occures only in 90% of the PDAs, 10% of the PDAs work absolutely fine
    On the other hand, use it like Victor said - but even then you could run into problems, cause Creme tries to start files in the MI folder. But cause Creme itself needs some time to init, usually this works fine.
    Hope this explains you the reaon of your problem.
    Regards,
    Oliver

  • BIBeans on WinNT - killer of previously working OLAP samples?

    I installed JDeveloper 9i RC and BiBeans RC. I applied all the latest OLAP patches and started working on BiBeans tutorial. I installed the demo database bibdemo schema and started creating OLAP connection required by Designer wizard. As other people already posted, the connection won't work until upcoming OLAP Patch for WinNT/2000.
    So I tried to go back to my previously working OLAP samples (generated from OLN OLAP API Fundamentals class) and noticed that they didn't work any more.
    Here is the output of the sample program:
    **** Obtained CORBA stub for /etc/OLAPServer/OLAPServer1 ****
    **** OLAP Services connection start ****
    **** OLAP Services connection made ****
    *** Metadata provider created ***

    Process exited with exit code 1.
    The line that generates the exception is:
    MdmSchema root = mdp.getRootSchema();
    I noticed that installing BIBDEMO sample schema removed the old SH measures and cubes. I tried changing the user/pwd from SH to BIBDEMO and got the same error.
    What's causing the problem. Can I easily undo the BIBDEMO changes and make the OLAP API samples work again. Or am I stuck waiting for the upcoming OLAP Patch?
    /Stan

    Hi Stan
    Can you tell us exactly what you did?
    What versions of the Beans and Oracle9i OLAP did you have first?
    What version of the OLAP patch did you install?
    What OS are you using? I initially installed Oracle 9i Database for MS Windows NT/2000 from CD-ROM (version 9.0.1). I have also installed JDeveloper 3.2.3 from an accompanying CD-ROM. I don't remember if BI Beans existed in that release, probably not.
    Then I downloaded JDeveloper 9i RC and BIBeans AddIn for JDeveloper. I installed the following patches:
    - Oracle9i Patch Set Version 9.0.1.2.0,
    - Oracle OLAP Release 1 Patch Set Version 9.0.1.1.1,
    - Oracle OLAP Best Practices for Cube Aggregation and Query Operations Release 1 (9.0.1) for Windows and UNIX, Part Number A92122-01,
    - XADEMO.BAT for Oracle OLAP.
    I'm using Windows NT 4 with SP 6a.
    I have also re-installed the SH_CAT schema as you suggested in the other note, but that didn't make the problem go away. I'm still getting MetadataNotFoundException when calling mdp.getRootSchema().

  • Installing/upgrading packages on live cd - broken?

    I've been trying to install perl in the live cd environment, as it is a dependency for many other things such as git and emacs, but this has led me down a rabbit hole of problems which I'm guessing stem from the recent dropping of aufs from the kernel.
    Reproducing my problem is easy. Simply boot into the latest live cd, and type:
    [root@archiso]$ dhcpcd eth0
    [root@archiso]$ pacman -Syu
    You will get errors about conflicts with aufs2, kernel26, ndiswrapper and tiacx depending on kernel26<2.6.39. To me the reasonable way around this would be:
    [root@archiso]$ pacman -Syu --ignore kernel26
    This will appear to work but the entire system will crash during the "checking for file conflicts" stage, such that a hard reboot is necessary.
    Trying to bypass this problem and simply type
    [root@archiso]$ pacman -Sy perl
    will not work either - it will crash exactly the same way.
    Any ideas or suggestions you all have are appreciated.
    NOTE: I did check the feedback form but it seems to focus on AIF issues...

    Getting perl from the core CD did work, but it proved to be redundant since the latest git package depends on >=5.14.0. I solved my problem by wgetting both git-1.7.5.2-1 and perl-5.12.3-1 from the schlunix repo, which can work on all live cds (i'm writing a script that will do this and other things). Installing those resolved all dependency problems for my purposes.
    This of course does not solve either the long term dependency breakage from dropping aufs or whatever pacman bug caused the hard-crash, but at least solves my immediate problem.
    Thanks for your help karol!
