Midi/browser playback problem with Audigy 2 platinum (Cannot set Default Device for some reas

Currently I'm having problems playing back mid files in Mediaplayer and various other default programs. I can play midifiles in Winamp by setting it to the proper Directsound device. However in control panel/sound setup (MIDI music Playback), It only lists the MIDI Out Devices instead of the playback one and is defaulted on BLANK when I enter it. I have a feeling this is the main problem.
DX Diag plays back the midi fine. I have tried reinstalling the latest drivers and the drivers from the disc with no luck at all. Also the default language has been stuck on Japanese as well. I have no idea why it started doing this but it seems to also affect any sound playback in my web browsers since I don't even get sound from any Flash files or Google video.Message Edited by zoglog on 06-23-2006 :38 PMMessage Edited by zoglog on 06-23-2006 :38 PM

Ok, well I did a clean sweep and clean reinstall of the drivers that fixed my language problem. However I cannot get the proper "Midi music playback" Default Device. Whenever I change it to something it reverts it to a blank no matter how many times I change it or uncheck "Use only default devices"
It does the exact same thing for "Voice playback"
I'm not sure if this is related but I don't get any sound from any web-browser Shockwave flash files.
This is really starting to get fustrating. Any help input would be greatly appreciated. I think the worst part about this is I know the midi works, it just won't let me assign the device....
Oh yeah, also even if I set the "place volume icon in taskbar" option in the sound and devices properties it wll not show. Not sure if this is related...Message Edited by zoglog on 06-23-2006 :44 PM

  • Problems with Audigy Platinum and Firew

    Hi,
    I've been running my Soundblaster Audigy Platinum on my Win2k-System for some years and have just encountered some weird problems with the Firewire-Connector. When I connect an external DVD-Burner everything works fine. But when I connected an external harddisc for the first time recently, the system completely flipped and rebootet without any messages. When I connected the dri've via USB it wasn't recognized automatically (what it should have after the manual) but after installing the Drivers on the Disc. Afterwards also the Firewire-connect was possible, the dri've was recognized and appeared in the Explorer. So far so good.
    But now, everytime I try to copy files larger than some Megabyte the dri've stops copying and I get an error message. Then the dri've disappears in the explorer. When I connect the dri've to my Laptop (XP Pro System) everything works fine. I already tried to google the problem and found some users with the same problem, unfortunately no answers to their posts. Is there someone who can help me (us)?
    By the way, I already tried to re-install the drivers for the audigy...

    hi kakarocht, tks for help me.
    My mobo is new, i buy all the config recently.
    i'm searching in the forum, and found this topic https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?topic=85631.0

  • Problems with Audigy SE - Cannot update dri

    I've just installed Audigy SE 7.. While the sound is working just fine, I still have one problem with it:
    I was only able to install the driver that came with the cd. I've downloaded the latest driver from the creative website, SB24_VTDRV_LB__04_0077.exe, but it says that I have no compatible hardware installed. (!!!)
    I use Windows XP professional.
    thanks in advance

    I was asking if you purchased the Audigy card separately or did it came with your computer. If the card came with your computer, you may have an OEM product.
    You might also want to check if the sound card is installed properly, go to "Device Manager" and check if the Audigy SE is listed. If you continue to experience difficulty, please get in touch with support for further assistance.

  • Cannot set default programs for a file extension in Gnome

    After a gnome upgrade (cannot remember when), I can no longer set the default program for a particular file extension by right clicking the file in nautilus -> going to "properties" -> going to "open with" tab -> highlighting a program -> pressing "set as default".

    The program I was trying to set was totem for default video playback; wine had made windows media player the default player prior. Interestingly, once I installed gnome-mplayer; the default program changed to gnome-mplayer and I was then able to switch default programs. This error may be related to wine.

  • Sound problems with audigy platinum after software upgra

    After updating software (and then deleteing and redownloading) I had the usual sounds from windows but no sound in other programs. The eax environment was turned to no effects. When I added effects there was then sound. This would be OK in games but is annoying when listening to news broadcasts on AOL.
    Any ideas?

    Well now I'm confused alright. I told you I took out the TV tuner and everything seemed fine. Wrong! The system froze again while playing a DVD movie this time. Naturally I thought about the graphics card which is an Albatron FX 5200 (yes one of those about which NVidia appologised for their technical problems). So I opened the case and took the graphics card out and it was hot! I mean you could fry eggs on it. I checked the system's temperature and I got 58 degrees Celsius for the mainboard. I forgot to mention that I live in Greece and the atmosphere's temperature now is between 29 and 35 degrees celsius. Then I rememberd reading that the new FX series by NVidia are considered very bad graphics cards and besides everything they have cooling problems. So I stuck in my old graphics card (ASUS GEforce Ti 4200) and mounted an additional cooler fan on the case. Now the mainboard's temp doesn't rise over 49-50 degrees Celsius and until this time I haven't had any freezes. My guess is it wasn't the tuner after all. It was a temperature problem and since I'm working with programs that stress the CPU and Audigy to their limits (multiple music sequencing and audio mixing software) I have a good reason to believe that. So the FX 5200 is most likely to have caused it all. Needless to say that besides the extreme temperature the card has crappy performance as well no matter the 128 MB of RAM. I just hope I won't need any more fans to be able to work.

  • I downloaded Firefox 7 and when I click on the browser icon nothing happens, the browser does not load on desktop.I had no problems with Firefox 4 I had been using for several years and liked very much

    I downloaded Firefox 7 and when I click on the browser icon nothing happens, the browser does not load on desktop.I had no problems with Firefox 4 I had been using for several years and liked very much

    Most people have no problems with installing firefox as an upgrade, but there are quite a few things that can cause problems. Please have a look at the articles
    * [[software Update Failed]] <-- clickable link (blue ) --
    * [[firefox will not start]]
    * [[firefox does not work]]
    Post back after you read them and say what you tried. Have you ensured you used an admin account, possibly needing to check the UAC setting, and that security software is not blocking the changes. You should certainly try starting in firefox's [[safe mode]] either from a menu/icon option or by holding the shift key as you attempt to run firefox.
    Is the browser icon you see on the desktop, and a firefox icon ?

    Try this first - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.)
    Or this - Delete the account in Mail and then set it up again. Settings->Mail, Contacts, Calendars -> Accounts   Tap on the Account, then on the red button that says Remove Account.

  • I am experiencing some major problems with my MacBook Pro. I have had some issues with it turning on/off at random times, but today, when starting, I get the grey start-up screen and a recovery bar. After filling in approx 1/4 of the way, the machine dies

    I am experiencing some major problems with my MacBook Pro. I have had some issues with it turning on/off at random times, but today, when starting, I get the grey start-up screen and a recovery bar. After filling in approx 1/4 of the way, the machine dies. After starting it in recovery mode, it will not allow me to download OS X Mavericks- it says the disk is locked. Any ideas? I do not have a back-up and do not want to erase everything before I have explored my options. Help?

    try forcing internet recover, hold 3 keys - command, option, r - you should see a spinning globe
    most people will tell you to do both pram and smc resets (google) and if you still have issues, either clean install (easy) or troubleshoot (hard)

    I have a problem with youtube...i can't watch some videos from youtube! They stop after few seconds of playing!! what can i do to fix it??

    Try loading the same video in different browsers (Firefox, Chrome, Safari and Internet Explorer are your best options). If the issue is across all of them, make sure you've downloaded the latest version of Flash at http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/
    If it's still stopping after that...Do the tried and tested method for everything: reset your router.
