Left rear channel not working - Xfi

My left rear channel is not working. Its not the speakers nor the connections, its the soundcard (Xfi XM). I know this because I switched the front/rear connections to test them and the same problem?channel did not work. The problem is in both Vista and XP, so its not the software/drivers either. Any solution to this? Thanks.

  • X-FI - rear channels not working with creative a

    I have a Fatalty X-fi and 5. speakers connected via analog cables.Everything is connected the way it should.When running the Windows channel test, the noise is in the correct speaker.But when running the Creative tests the back channels are redirected to all channels and the subwoofer goes to the front. When running game mode and games, I get no surrond sound in the back channels at all. /Alex?

    Try using Creative restore defaults and see if that hel

  • Left Rear Channel on Inspire 4100 no longer working

    I have one left rear channel no working or working intermittently. I am not electronically incline to dig in and solder things out to make it work so I am looking if I can still either (a) purchase a refurbished 400 sub or (b) send it out to you guys so it can be repaired.
    Any ideas moderators?
    Thanks

    To find that out you would have to contact support. They do have options for people out of warranty, although as it appears that product is discontinued they may not have any refurbished/replacement units available. (Their normal option is to replace instead of repair, and unfortunately the sub is most of the cost of a speaker set). Still worth contacting them about it though.

  • Crackling, Left Rear Channel noise, IRQs, 4 Gigs of Memory, fixes and problems with XFi Fatal

    Hello fellow troubleshooters. Well I've been working on my XFI issues since there are so many of them trying to make the one piece in my newly built system work as intended. I will put my hardware info below this post for comparison purposes if it helps you at all or for feedback/ideas. Well first off I had the crackling noise popping so on even when my machine was idle. If you have not done this yet do it
    !!! Start, Control Panel, Sounds Speech and Audio Device, Change Speaker Settings, Advanced (in device volume), ok now there is a bunch of sliders go to "options" check everything, ok now that you see all the sliders mute Everything besides: Play Control, Wave, CD Player for testing purpose. You will probably hear a difference as you do it. Especially Mic 2. Ok well that issue resolved my popping crackling noises when idle. Ok so I still have a shared IRQ issue since I have an Asus A8N32-SLI Deluxe board and the slots go as such PCI-E, PCI, PCI, PCI-E, PCI. Well since the GeForce 7800 GTX cards I have take up not just the PCI-E slot, but also the PCI slot is covered from the Huge Fan. Then the Same thing for the Second graphics card. So I have only one slot that works for my PCI Fatalty sound card. Well this forces me to share PCI IRQ between one of the Video Cards and the Sound Card. Its not a "conflict" it is simply sharing the IRQ, after the above issue fixed my popping issue this no longer was a concern. Now my big issue is that I sent my Sub Woofer in for RMA, I have the Gigaworks S750 7. THX speakers, they are great but when I really crank up the volume on them I would get the sound like a speaker was blown in the left rear channel, so I swapped another speaker in its place and I have the same problem. So the RMA folks said to send in the Sub Woofer which cost me over $30 to ship the thing only to have them tell me there is no problem. Well I had recently done RMAs on my sound card, both Video Cards, and my mother board too in hopes of fixing the next problem. So everything is new though I got a refurb on the mobo. So I'm just waiting on my Sub woofer now so I'm using my headphones and guess what I'm finding there is this noise in the left speaker, an issue I sent the headphones back for a long time ago when I was using them waiting to buy my speakers. I have the Creative Pro Gamer headphones. So now I read a post about someone else with the same issue left channel, and I have to wonder I am not alone and that usually means in Creative Labs land there probably is others with this issue that have spouses that wont let them stretch their audiophile legs with extreme volume, if this is you try it out kick up the bass, and see if you have this problem too, if so please post it here. I have no clue on this one and I am open to any ideas. Ok and the last issue!! This is the real problem I'm facing now. I play EQ2 I love my MMO titles with the occassional single player title for those short stints at the computer between work, parenting, and stuff my wife demands be started before she finishes speaking of it (those of you married know what I'm talking about). I have 2 operating systems, XP Home, and XP Pro 64. Home I use for Office, graphic design, and general applications. XP Pro 64 I use purely for gaming. All my games are installed through this OS which is on my 2 74 Gig Raptors in Raid 0, I have another Partition for XP Home, and a 3rd for all the game installs. So I recently found that after selecting Extreme Graphics option in EQ2 then moving the rest of the sliders to Max that my G5 keyboard which has a performance monitor in it showing the amount of Ram usage showed me hitting about 90% and would spilke at the same time as I found I had frame rate slowdown. So I decided to get 2 more gigs of Corsair Twin XMS 3500Pro 024x2 memory bumping me up to 4 gigs. Well I had to go into the bios I found and change a memory setting to discrete and enable the memory hole in order for XP Pro 64 and the motherboard to see the memory. At this time I was working on other things with my computer, and suddenly the popping noise came back so I'm pissed now.... But oddly its not happening in XP home, only in XP 64. So I'm thinking I may have to go to XP home for my gaming OS, then just before I install home I remember that XP home wont register 4 gigs of memory.... So I go turn off the memory hole and discrete settings and this sets the memory to 2 gigs.... Crackling sound in ALL EAX GAMES goes away.... So now clearly my issue with my sound card and EAX crackling noise is Memory related somehow. Now I have isolated it to 4 gigs of memory, but it makes me think of those folks with this issue perhaps something is amiss with their memory and how it works with timing, or onboard memory on the sound card which is a first time memory is put on a sound card?.... Any input is appreciated as to how to repair this issue, thanks for reading, below is my system set up.

    Evolve,
    I have the a8n-sli Premium which as you stated is basically the same board with a couple extra items. I have the latest beta bios ver -06. Since the early fall release the option which we will be talking about was available in the premium board which it I remember was Bios rev 9. I would download the latest bios rev.
    07.04 (latest beta?or go with 06)?and flash in. Here are the steps to get the proper memory options to work and I have also included my system specs to compare.
    ) Hit Del to get into Bios
    2) Go to the second tab on the top of the screen "Advanced"
    3) Select the first option in the menu "CPU Configuration"
    4) Select the first option in the "CPU Configuration" menu called "DRAM Configuration"
    5) Select Manual configuration from the first Menu item.
    6) The last two options in the same menu for DRAM are s/w remapping over 4G and h/w remapping over 4G. Select the "s/w remapping option over 4G" and enable it. Disable the "h/w remapping over 4G."?
    7) Hit f0 and save the config.
    You should now at post have 4GBws total but only 3GBs of usable memory and your X-fi should crush it in XP64 and XP32.
    My Specs
    A8n-sli premium (Bios -06)
    amd X2 4400 (~2.5 GHZ)
    4GB LL patriot memory (~228 HZ)
    X-Fi Extreme Music
    LSI 320-2e PCI express SCSI RAID controller (256MB buffer)
    2x Seagate Cheata 5K.3?dri'ves
    All water cooled
    Good Luck
    PapaH
    By the way this is defiantly a XP64 driver problem because even with h/w remapping enabled in XP32 the card sounds fine. It only happens in XP64.

  • Left channel not working--it's a logic problem, but I can't debut it! HELP!!!

    I'm using a SB Audigy SE card on my XP machine. In the past, I've made good music files from CDs and records (remember those?), but I have not used the thing in about 18 months, and now I'm having a weird problem.
    I get output only on the LEFT channel. I'm sure it's not a problem with the input source, because I've used a cassette player and a turntable, and with both, I get output only on the left channel. This happens even when I reverse the phono cables from either device. That tells me the problem is not in the cabling leading from my device to the SB card.
    I checked the speakers using the Audigy Speaker Settings application, and it shows that both speakers are working properly: when I click on CHANNEL, I get the words "left channel" and then "right channel" successively on the proper speakers. Same when I click NOISE.
    This shows me that the problem is not on the (physical) output side: if it were, I would not get the words "left channel" on that channel, and then the words "right channel" on the right channel. As well, I can play videos (e.g. Youtube) and get sound on both channels.
    My guess is that somehow there is some setting somewhere in Audigy that is saying "process only output to the left channel." But I cannot find any setting that might be doing that.
    Anyone got any ideas???? I'm stumped.

  • Rear channels wont work

    I am trying to use my onboard audio as 4 point surround, but my rear channels wont work. I have adjusted the driver, so that the line in should work as the rear, but still nogo.  Plugged rear speaker input into front output, and still nogo. Seems that the rear speaker input will not work with either the front or the rear outputs. Speakers run fine on old soundcard if installed on the same board. Im on bios vers 1.4. Hopefully no one is thinking it, but please dont tell me to flash my bios for this.

    as i understand u have 3 audio inputs in ur front and rear and the front work but the rear doesnt? if im right than there's no problem
    u cant have both working... its either the front or the back... if u want the back u need to jumper something on the board (check manual) and if u wish to use the front than dont jumper nothing

    I recommend you to run Apple Hardware Test > http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1509 It's possible that something is damaged, and Apple Hardware Test will help you finding it. Make sure you tick the option to run an extended test, and connect your Mac to the charger.
    If your Mac came with DVDs, you have to insert the Mac OS X DVD to run Apple Hardware Test. As you haven't got the SuperDrive, you will have to buy an external optical drive

  • Left Outer Join Not working in BI 7.0 Infoset

    Hi All,
    I am working on BI 7.0. I have to create a report where I have to display the Target values from a target DSO against the transactional data (Operational data).
    I have a DSO where for a “subteam” value target has been set up on different KPIs.
    In the Info Cube, I have transactional data on daily basis per “subteam”. I have to show the actual and target values.
    I have created an Info Set using Target DSO and Daily operational cube, so that I should able to compare the target and actual values of KPIs, for all the “subteam” values (From DSO, irrespective of whether the data is available in cube for those sub team).
    I have used Outer Left Join in the Info set (DSO on left side), but I am unable to see the desired results. It is working just like an inner join.
    Any Idea why the Outer Left Join is not working? The DSO has only one fey field called “subteam” on which I have set outer left join.
    Regards,
    Amit

    Hi,
    did you solve your problem? because I have the same issue right now: the left outer join doesn't seem to do its job.
    Let me know if you have found a solution, it would be appreciated.
    have a nice day,
    Dominic

  • TS1381 My left arrow does not work on my macbook pro(model A1226).  I have reset nvram, performed a safe boot, pulled the cache to desktop, replaced .globalpreference.plist, test all other keys with keyboard view (all others work)  - HELP!!

    My left arrow does not work on my macbook pro(model A1226).
    I have reset nvram, performed a safe boot, pulled the cache to desktop, replaced .globalpreference.plist, & tested all other keys with "keyboard viewer" (all other keys work except for the arrow). 
    In addition, I have gone thru all the recommended checks with universal access and have booted from snow leopard dvd and the left arrow still does not work. 
    I have tried using the left arrow key in all of applications I use such as: excel, ms word, address book, calendar, iphoto, terminal, & highlighting an icon and using the arrows to move to another selected icon.
    Here is the kicker!  In addition, I purchased a logitech solar bluetooth keyboard and the arrows work fine with my ipad but do not work when paired with the macbook pro. All other keys work fine on the macbook pro using the bluetooth keyboard.
    I believe this says that the problem is not in my macbook pro keyboard. So where can it be?
    Can anyone think of any other rabbit holes I can search?
    thanks and regards

  • I buy my Headphones on Apple Store, and the left sight is not working that much.II want to know if i can replace to a new one.

    I buy my Headphones on Apple Store and it cost me about $36 with Tax, and the left sight is not working that much.I want to know if i can replace to a new one without no charge.

    If they are Apple-brand headphones, then the Apple Store will handle the warrranty and, absent any evidence of abuse, should replace the headphones. If the headphones were made by some other company, then unless you purchased the headphones in the last fourteen days, you will have to contact the manufacturer of the headphones for warranty support.

    Bug: LCDS-544 - Scenario where two components have seperate channel sets with overlapping channels not working.
    QA: Yes
    Doc: No
    Checkintests Pass: Yes
    Details:
    * Hunting to a new channel within a channelset never triggered a disconnect from the previous channel(s). This isn't a problem in general, but does becomes a problem when an app defines two distinct channelsets containing at least one shared channel at the head of the list. In this case, the first channelset hunts past it and connects on a later channel. But when the second channelset hunts through (triggering a connect fault when it hits that initial shared channel that can't connect), the fault is processed by the first channelset as well (incorrectly).

  • Command-Left/Right Arrow not working

    Very strange behavior I'm seeing today.
    My left/right arrow keys work. Even Option-Left/Right works correctly.
    But, Command-Left-Right do not work. No movement at all.
    Curiously, Shift-Command-Left/Right work fine.
    I've not changed any keyboard shortcuts recently. I've checked the keyboard shortcuts that are currently defined. Nothing that would indicate a problem, but clearly there is.

    Just found a solution that worked for me here. Basically, it seems to be a bug with the Dock. If you type "killall Dock" (the command is case-sensitive) into the command line in Terminal, it restarts the Dock. After that the arrows seem to work normally again.
