MOVED: Microphone not working on P6N Diamond with Windows Vista 32bits Premium

This topic has been moved to Vista problems.
https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?topic=114047.0

"What a hassle" doesn't do creative's utter uselessness enough justice.
I don't know what to say except you seem to have done all the right things to try and get your mic working. I've just been through hell and back trying to fix mine. Not just my mic either, if I was in-game or just in Team Speak...video files or music files would not play. Other than that If I was in Team Speak and I loaded up Crysis I would get no sound, and get this... If I loaded up Crysis first and alt-tabbed out to join Team Speak It would say I had no playback or recording device. GOD!
Also apparently there are addressing issues with 64bit systems that have 4GB RAM or more, have to read into it a bit more, sure there are threads in these forums about it.
However for whatever reason, after much stuffing around. I have installed the Vista drivers off the CD (although im running w7 64bit) that came with my card and I'm no longer getting the above issues except now my sound is rediculously soft and so is the bass.
This is what I tried.
. Installed latest drivers from the driver support area.
2. Installed Dan K's support pack
3. Tried booting with 2GB of RAM
4. And lastly which I mentioned worked for some reason...installed vista drivers that came with my card.
Perhaps its worthwhile to install whatever drivers you tried again, but try booting into safemode first and use driver sweeper once you've uninstalled the software/drivers you have at the moment.

  • Cannot open iTunes 8 with Windows Vista Home Premium

    Hopefully someone here can help me with my problem. I have a new Ipod Touch that needs itunes 8 to work. I have a new HP PC with Windows Vista Home Premium. The problem I'm having is: itunes & quicktime will download successfully onto my computer, but after download will not open. I receive the error message "itunes has stopped working...A problem caused the program to stop working correctly. Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available". I have tried to open them from desktop & from programs ...will not work. I was using itunes 7 with no problems, but after upgrade to the new version (itunes 8) I started having this problem. Here are a few of the things I have tried so far with help from just about every tech support I could find: uninstall & reinstall itunes (tried this several times..didn't help, but itunes installs successfully each time)...try installing quicktime & itunes separately (didn't help)..disable firewall & virus protection (didn't help)...turn off Data Execution Prevention (DEP) (didn't help)...tried saving software to discs & installing itunes that way (didn't help)...I have updated all of my software including windows vista...I've run virus checks...& pretty much run checks on anything else I could find. I occasionally get the same error message when I try to open Rhapsody, but not every time. I'm thinking of using my backup discs & restoring my computer to factory settings. To do that would be a last resort, but I am getting pretty close to desperate. Does anyone think restoring it would help? If anyone has any ideas for me to try I would really appreciate it. Thanks so much.

    You need to to check to see if your Quicktime works normally. Itunes will not work if QUicktime doesn't.
    If Quicktime doesn't work, describe what happens with any error message in full.
    Go to your control panel and try to start QUicktime preferences. In XP you need to be in classic view to see it, I am not sure about Vista.
    Give the full text of any error message.
    Have you installed any of the following:
    ACE & K-Lite mega codecs package, QT alternative, Storm codec, WinAVI video converter, Mpcstar
    If so uninstall them, they are bad news for Quicktime.
    Report back with your results.
    If Quicktime is OK have you seen the Apple troubleshooting article for launch failure, I guess you have probably done quite a bit of it anyway, but is worth going through it systematically:

    I have a problem with the iTunes Store, I have an ipod and an iphone 2. I have a PC with Windows Vista Home Premium 2007, entering into iTunes Store on the main screen I get only AppStore, Podcast and iTunes U. In my screen I get only ipad2 Podcast, iTunes U Downloads. My problem is I can not access any application to download music, videos, books, etc..
    ITunes will be installed wrong or what should I do to activate these options?

    Go to the front page of the Store, and click Change Country.  Make sure it is set to the country where you actually are. 
    Then you will be able to see everything that is for sale in your country, which, depending where you live, might or might not include music.

  • CS2 Premium not working after re installing on Windows Vista

    I reformatted my computer and re installed CS2 Premium in a new laptop with Windows Vista; however, when trying to open one of the applications such as Photoshop it says "user name, organization, or serial number is missing or invalid." Adobe does not offer tech support for CS2 anymore so my only hope is your expert information. Thank you.

    I got the same problem with my CS2. I recently bought a new computer which is windows vista 64 bit, and I tried to install my old CS2 on it and every program gave me that error message when I tried to run them. I called customer support, and the answer is the same, they dont support CS2 anymore and they expect you to buy their CS4. I mean I spent $$$ on it 2 years ago and you tell me to spend another $$$ to buy it again? This is purely insane.

  • Can't use iTunes with Windows Vista Home Premium

    I have deleted and reinstalled so many times, so i tried the compatibility settings and set it to work for Windows XP(Service Pack 2) with 256 colours. It works, but it messes up all my colours.
    Help, please.
    (My brother got iTunes working on his Windows Vista Home Premium laptop, but it won't work for the desktop computer.)

    i think the file name quicktime.msi is causing the problem

  • HP Pavilion a1210n with Windows Vista 32bit. looking for audio drivers. Can you point me to a link?

    Hello,
    I have an HP Pavilion a1210n running Windows Vista 32bit. I'm missing the audio drivers and can't seem to find them. Can you point me to a link for these drivers?
    Thanks, It's much appricieated!

    I found this link but it doesn't talk about audio drivers in the multimedia package. Am I missing something? Does Vista need to have all OS updates installed for this to work?
    Thanks again!

  • EXTERNAL microphone not working on T61, Colleagues with T61s having same problem

    I am unable to get any external micophone to work with my T61.  A colleague of mine spent hours with Lenovo support trying to get his to work but was never able to.  The internal microphone works but the quality is low.  I have tried several external microphones (3).  I verified the external microphones work with other systems.
    As for drivers, here is what I have tried so far:
    SoundMAX driver uninstall
    Installed Microsoft UAA Bus Driver for HD Audio
    Installed SoundMAX Integrated Digital HD Audio driver (5.10.1.5520)
    None of this made any difference.  When I plug in an external mic, all applications, including the SoundMAX Control Panel > Microphone >  Setup Wizard, detect zero sound from the external microphone.  I have muted/unmuted the external microphone, muted/unmuted the microphone in Windows, boosted/decreased the volume, used the Microsoft microphone troubleshooting wizard, etc., etc.
    Please help!  Using an external microphone is very important for my work (speech recognition) and for several of my colleagues.  If we would have known external microphone do not work with T61s, my company would not have purchased these.  Now we are all stuck until we get new laptops again (2 more years)!
    P.S. One strange thing I noticed while plugging and unplugging is that if I plug in headphones to the external microphone jack, one of the headphones (R, I think) becomes an "external microphone."  The quality is terrible but applications register sounds coming through the external headphones.  Why then have none of the 3 different external microphones I've plugged into the mic jack worked?!?!
    System:
    SoundMAX Integrated Digital HD Audio (Driver 5.10.1.5520, Location 65535, C:\WINDOWS\system32\drivers\ADIHdAud.sys is 5.10.01.5520)
    Windows XP Pro Version 2002 SP2
    Intel Core2 Duo CPU
    T7300 @ 2.00GHz
    2.99 GB of RAM

    I am having this same problem and am also using voice recognition software.  Have you found a resolution yet to this problem?  I have not.  Please share if you have.
    Thanks!

  • Microphone not working on dv7 Pavilion Notebook (Windows 7)

    The microphone on my dv7 Pavilion Notebook is not working.  I checked the sliding volume controls and have tried updating my drivers.  A few weeks ago, I “unchecked” a few startup items using msconfig.  Is it possible, I “unchecked” an item related to the microphone?  Please advise
    In addition, I tried updating the CyberLink YouCam software, but I am unable to uninstall the existing software in order allow the updated software to properly install.  When uninstalling the program, I receive a “1628 Fail” notification.  Is there another way to force the  un-installation of CyberLink YouCam? 
    Pavilion Notebook dv7
    Operating System:  Windows 7
    Product Number:  A1L75AV
    Serial Number: [Personal Information Removed]
    Thank you in advance.

    Hi,
    First, regarding the microphone problem, try the following.
    Download the IDT Audio installer on the link below and save it to your Downloads folder.
    http://ftp.hp.com/pub/softpaq/sp58001-58500/sp58226.exe
    When done, open windows Control Panel, open Device Manager and open up Sound, Video and Game Controllers.  Right click the IDT device and select Uninstall - you should also get a prompt to remove the current driver, tick the box to allow this and then proceed with the uninstall.
    When complete, shut down the notebook, unplug the AC Adapter and then remove the battery.  Hold  down the Power button for 30 seconds.  Re-insert the battery and plug in the AC Adapter.
    Tap away at the esc key as you start the notebook to launch the Start-up Menu and then select f10 to enter the bios menu.  Press f5 to load the defaults ( this is sometimes f9, but the menu at the bottom will show the correct key ), use the arrow keys to select 'Yes' and hit enter.  Press f10 to save the setting and again use the arrow keys to select 'Yes' and hit enter.
    Let Windows fully load - it will automatically load an audio driver, but just let this complete.  Then open your Downloads folder, right click on the IDT installer and select 'Run as Administrator' to start the installation.  When this has completed, restart the notebook again before cheecking if the microphone works.
    Regarding being unable to uninstall Cyberlink Youcam, see if you can remove it using the Microsoft 'Fixit' on the following link - this is particularly useful in correcting issues on machines running a 64bit OS.

  • Creative Zen X-fi 16gb (wifi) will not dock on my laptop with windows vist

    When I plug in my zen x-fi 6gb to my laptop the computer detects the player and the player says that it is docked immediately. Windows then detects the player and begins to install drivers for the player. As soon as those drivers are "installed successfully" the player is immediately undocked and cannot be detected by the computer. The device manager states: "This device cannot start. (Code 0)". I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling the drivers countless times, reinstalling my USB drivers, updating my BIOS, nothing seems to work. I updated my players firmware to the latest version on another computer where the player worked fine (also vista) but it will still not work on my own computer. Please help!

    Hello Donuts,
    Welcome to Creative forums!
    Try this:
    .) Un-install Creative softwares.
    2.) If you're Windows Media Player is lower than version , update it. If you already have version , try un-installing WMP and WMP runtime under add/remove programs. After uninstalling WMP, reboot your PC and re-install WMP .
    3.) Connect your ZEN X-Fi.
    Hope this hel

  • Trouble with Windows Vista Home Premium SP2 x64

    Hello everyone
    My system is in a very big mess. I'm using Ideapad y550 and recently I was hit by the continuous restart cycle. I updated my windows as usual and after a system restart as part of the update processs, windows just kept on restarting. "configuring updates part 3" and it would always be at 0%. Anyway, I searched the internet and came across a solution. I downloaded a Vista recovery disc (since Lenovo did not provide me with one) and went to command prompt and deleted a certain file that was causing this restart loop. Now, after that day I have been hit with more problems. Here
    1) windows does not update anymore. Always shows "searching for updates" and is stuck there forever
    2) "turn windows feature on/off" box is always empty.
    3) "sfc /scannow" does not work anymore. gives a "windows protection error" or something similar.
    4) I failed to install Microsoft Office 2010 as it gives this error "Error 1935 - HRESULT: 0x8007054F". I am stuck with no office application as I deleted office 2007 to install this and cannot do my university work!
    5) windows has gotten extremely slow.
    ok that is a huge list, I know. Could someone please help me? I am really lost right now and going back to factory settings is not an option since I do not have backup. I'm ready to try everything to avoid that. Any ideas anyone?
    Thanks so much for your efforts

    clean windows installation will delete all the files you have on volume c:
    i didn't suggest you to repair, cause i don't think it'll help, but you can try.
    just use windows repair to save your personal files, after then perform clean installation not to have any other issue(s).

  • Nvidia GeoForce Go 7600 graphics driver and IQ770 with Windows Vista Home Premium 32 bit edition

    I have been having problems with my screen for several months now:  every so often, for no apparent reason, it loses some of the pixels.  I can still read the items on the screen, but the resolution is trashed.  It happens intermittently and then goes back to normal.  I have tried uninstalling the graphics driver and letting the computer go find it on a reboot.  This does not work.  I have also tried installing the original graphics driver.  This does not work either.
    If I look in the "Problem Reports" area in Control Panel, there is a graphics related error: 
    Error Message: STOP 0x000000EA THREAD_STUCK_IN_DEVICE_DRIVER (Q293078)  The resolution listed is to reinstall the device driver (which I've tried dozens of times without success) or to change the computer's performance settings, which also does nothing.  I still get the occasional loss of screen clarity which returns to normal all by itself.
    Is anyone else seeing this problem?  Does anyone have a resolution?
    I have tried the latest graphics driver available on the hp website, from 8-2008 as well as the originally installed version from January 2007.  The version of Windows is Vista Home Premium 32 bit edition, Service Pack 1.
    If I completely uninstall the graphics driver, and do not reload any, the screen performance is fine, but then there are other problems, such as graphics acceleration.
    Thanks for your help.

  • Crystal Report with Windows Vista Home Premium

    (Why I added Code and my paragraph becomes dis-order??)
    Dear all,
    This is my first post in this forum. So, if I put at wrong section, Mod please kindly move my thread.
    Here is what I'm facing now.
    I have an application which is coded in Visual Studio 2005 (VB.Net) using SQL Server Express 2005 edition. This project include report sections which I used Visual Studio built-in Crystal Report. (My development PC is running XP Pro edition)
    I already tested it in Windows XP Professional Edition (this is a clean OS no programming or other tools installed in it) and it worked well and it display the report accordingly and correctly.
    But when I tested it in Vista Home Premium, it got error and I can't run all reports. I juse ADO.Net connectivity to connect between Database and Crystal Report.
    Below is a sample which is provided by Crystal Report under my C:\program files\Microsoft Visual Studio 8\Crystal Reports\Samples\en\Code \ VB_Win_Data_DataSets. The way I connect is follow this project standard. Even the sample project got this error in Vista Home, I think it may be Vista problem or Crystal report problem. It will not my connection problem.
    Because my customer PC is running Vista Home Premium, now I'm in dead end. Kindly please tell me what should I do to solve this case.
    Thanks.

    blog. don't know why.

    Hi Ludek,
    Sorry, I was on vacation and didn't notice the email alert.
    I didn't deployed yet. Because I want to make sure it runs OK on vista, I didn't create a setup or deploy project in .Net.
    I just build and copy the entire bin folder and required data to Vista PC and test it.
    then it hits this error. (All other parts of my program is working well like CRUD data to DB.)
    (I did install this file "crredist2005_x86.msi" on Vista PC.)
    Thanks for all your support.
    I still didn't solve this case.
    What I do now is I change the way I connect to Server for all Crystal Reports.
    At first I use Dataset and map it to Server.
    Now I directly connect to it without pass through dataset. (Use OLEDB SQL Server.)
    But I still want to know how to solve this case.
    If anyone know it. Please share your idea and experience here.
    thanks.
