New Soundblaster Audigy Fx Install, No sound

I installed the new Audigy Fx card in my computer but cannot get any sound from the speakers. I double checked that the speaker cable was installed correctly.
Here is my setup
AsusM4A78-M MB w/ on board sound-(disabled)
AMD Phenom 2 2800Ghz processor
8 GB memory
EVGA GTX760 Ti video card

SoundBlaster Audigy Fx PCIe card
Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Soundblaster Audigy 4 instalation probl

I have trouble with instaling entertainment center, when i instal drivers from original cd it stops after 50% and doesn't respond i think it stops when it instal entertainment center. Every time when i do it its the same. Where in internet can i find entertainment center instalation files or what i should do to avoid it in the future?

You definately don't need the CD. Here's what I did:
Uninstall old SoundBlaster stuff. Everything, anywhere I could find it.</LI>
Do complete install (without IR-receiver installed).</LI>
Wait 2 days (I never thought I'd use the IR-receiver).</LI>
Install IR-receiver - I don't remember if I had to "cancel" anything, but I do remember that whatever driver was needed was installed when I did the complete Audigy 4 install 2 days prior. Upon prompt, I rebooted.</LI>
In my case, I moved the IR-receiver to another port (on back, instead of on front of the PC). Again, it auto-detected. Again, it prompted me to reboot.</LI>
Personally, I'd try 00% of the above, except substitute "reboot" for "Wait 2 days". A lot of messages suggest install of the Audigy can be fussy. In your case, you may care to double-check for any USB drivers (Control Panel, System, Hardware, Device Manager) you don't need.

Installed NEW Soundblaster Audigy 2 ZS Drivers... No Sound from side left spea

I installed the NEW 2.8.4 Drivers for my Audidy 2 ZS and now I have to sound comming from my side left speaker. When I do the speaker tests, all the speakers work except this one.

If anyone can help, please let me know.
Thanks,

Hi iLLz I do not have this issue with the new drivers, however may I suggest you uninstall the old drivers first. To do this. Locate the downloaded driver exe. SBAX_WEBUP_LB_2_08_0004.exe Extract this with an application called WinRAR http://www.rarsoft.com Once you have extracted the driver file run the .exe called setup.exe in your drivers folder. eg. SBAX_WEBUP_LB_2_08_0004\Drivers Select the uninstall option. Good Luck
As for additional info ...
When you update drivers by running the setup.exe found on \Drivers -folder, (or ctzapxx.exe found on it's \Support\i386 & amd64 sub folder ) --> select (tag) the "Overwrite existing shared ..." -checkbox --> you do not need to run this uninstall process at all.

Soundblaster audigy driver install

i was trying to follow this post here, but im not sure what im missing
https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=2200
i want to install the driver for my Audigy souncard. im pretty sure the chipset is the emu10k1. I downloaded the driver from http://sourceforge.net/projects/emu10k1/
according to that post,
# /etc/modules.conf
alias sound emu10k1 sound ac97_codec
# End of file
my modules.devfs reads:
# Soundcard
alias /dev/sound sound-slot-0
alias /dev/audio /dev/sound
alias /dev/mixer /dev/sound
alias /dev/dsp /dev/sound
alias /dev/dspW /dev/sound
alias /dev/midi /dev/sound
will adding these entries work after i put the driver in place?
do i actually need the alias's?
what location do i actually put the driver in?
and what modules are the ones i need to put into rc.conf?
i dont see the a modules.devfs, files mentioned, so im guessing this is the proper file name and just create the file in /etc?
or is somebody has a good link, please pass it my way

How to install The Soundblaster Audigy SE in Windows 7 RC?

:How to install The Soundblaster Audigy SE in Windows 7 RC?Y Two days ago I bought a Soundblaster Audigy SE-retail soundcard. I have a dual boot PC with Windows XP-SP3 and Windows 7 RC. The installation of the soundcard?in Windows XP was easy, no problems, good sound.
But how to install in Windows 7 RC ?
I have the installation and applications CD with XP and Vista drivers and I have the driver-download from Creative.com SB24PCDRV LB 0 - 04 - 0090.
Windows 7 tells me "No device for audio output is installed". Windows automaticly?installed a driver, but that doesn't work. (code 39). The driver download from?creative does not install new drivers and when I try it manually Windows tells me "The best driver is already installed"
When I uninstall?the driver that Windows installed and try to install the downloaded?creative driver for Windows 7, the driver will not install, and Windows message is something like "?no audio device is installed on this computer"
What to do ? A computer without sound is nothing...
Thanks,
Arie

>Re: How to install The Soundblaster Audigy SE in Windows 7 RC?% Meocene is 00% on the money. Dan K.'s pack is the best. I have used the pack on four different systems with AUDIGY LS and SE cards that I bought cheaply (all four on Ebay for $40). The package has worked under XP, Vista, and Windows 7 very well.
I have friends that play Left4Dead and they have been immensely pleased when playing the games in their flats with or without headphones, as compared to their old "onboard RE--t-k" sound.
The package also works well on a Gateway or HP machine when disabling onboard audio first then installing the Audigy and installing drivers and apps for the first time. Gi've up on using your old CDs, you will only run into a mountain of trouble trying to "Auto-Update" all that with the newest patches.

Your welcome try my pax drivers that might slove your issue

PLEASE HELP: installing my Soundblaster Audigy LS-soundcard with the latest hardware(bundle)drive

Problem:
I have a Soundblaster Audigy LS Soundcard in one of my PCI slots (I already tried the other slot with the same result). I run Windows XP professional SP2.
When I install the hardwaredriver-bundle version: Sound Blaster Audigy LS .04.0055, I have no problem, but when I install version .0.4.077 (in this example: or I install version 055 or I install version 077), I have the following problem: (through Control Panel) in system properties/hardware/device manager, I find PCI Device listed in " other devices " with a black exclamationmark in a yellow circle, while the SB Audigy LS is listed in the group " sound, video and game controllers ". The soundcard works, which is great but why is the exclamationmark showing? I already tried a different PCI slot, IRQ assignement in BIOS, but is still shows. The strange thing is, if I install first version 055 and then version 077, the problem is gone. A new problem that occurs if I do so, is that the PC hangs when starting Windows (but I'm not sure if that has to do with the fact that I install version MediaSource 5 Player-Organizer 5.20.23 over version 5.0.38, just to keep the MediaSourceGo! Toolbar (because it's no longer part of the softwarebundle version 20.23 - which has been confirmed by the support of Creative), the same with version of CD Burner Plugin 5.0.44 over 5.0.3 because it's not really clear on the website, if you need the previous version or if it's a full "update"). Please URGENT (with detailed info on every explained problem/issue - so I can try to resolve it) help.
Thanx,
Oli4

New 945GCM5, unable to install sound device

Hi all, please help,
I used the parts on the list below for a friends PC whose old motherboard was fried by power fault, some parts used, some new.
Anyway, I installed all the parts into his case along with the old hard drive. Formatted and installed Windows XP and then started to install the drivers from the CD for the Intel chipset, Intel onboard VGA drivers, Realtek NIC and Realtek HD Audio driver.
All the drivers installed and recognised the devices except the sound drivers. No matter what I do I can't get windows to install the drivers, it just won't recognise the drivers as belonging to the device.
The device shows up in Device Manager as PCI Device with the yellow exclamation mark to show a problem, when I disable the onboard sound in BIOS it disappears so it is definitely the sound device (onboard Realtek ALC888 chip, I believe).
What I have tried so far,
1. Tried install from CD.
2. Downloaded latest drivers from MSI, and tried install.
3. Downloaded latest drivers from Realtek, and tried install.
4. Tried to update driver from driver tab of device in Device Manager with the above drivers.
5. Formatted and reinstalled XP over again, and tried 1 to 4 again.
Is there a problem with the motherboard? Am I wasting my time?
Is there a way to force the install of the drivers?
Sorry if I've gone on a bit too long! Any help would be much appreciated, I've spent ages trying to fix it!

Your problem may have to do with SP3. There are known problems with SP3 and KB88111 / Universal Audio Architecture (UAA) High Definition Audio class driver.
Try this:

If that doesn't work, try again with SP2 only.

Soundblaster Audigy on MSI K8N Diamond Plus, Sound Linked? vs Audigy2 ZS?

Had a couple of quick questions regarding the Soundblaster Audigy onboard chip on my MSI K8N Diamond Plus. I have the audio connected to a front panel, and when I try and change the Right or Left speaker volume balance in Windows (by going to volume control and dragging the balance slider right or left), the volume slider goes down and the balance slider snaps back to center. As in my previous post, I had some damage to my front panel connector pins and wanted to make sure this wasn't a hardware issue requiring a replacement of the board.
Also, I have a Soundblaster Audigy2 ZS card from my previous system, and I was wondering if it added anything the onboard Soundblaster chip doesn't provide. I was thinking of installing it, but if the onboard audio does everything the card would, I'd rather just use the onboard solution.
Thanks.

SoundBlaster Audigy Value: Delay and echoing of sound output from head

I'm having problems with the sound output of my voice when chatting using a headset.. I can hear echoes and there are delays occasionally. I first thought the problem was with the headset, and so I changed it. However, the problem persists!
When I plugged my headset in my laptop instead of the desktop with the Audigy Value installed, I didn't encounter any problems at all with the sound. So I thought the problem is with the Audigy Value souncard.
What could be causing these problems?

You need set the ASIO latency through CT ASIO panel and not through Audition settings. ASIO Panel has only settings as milliseconds so if you select 10 or lower value your delay problems should be fixed.

Awe 32 Midi sound for Soundblaster Audigy L

I long time ago bought the good old awe32 ISA card. In my opinion this card had the best midi sound there ever was.... but back to the point. In lack of a ISA slot in my PC i now use a soundblaster audigy LS.But someone told me i can somewhere in the galaxy download a so called Sound Bank or Sound Font so my midi files and old dos games (Dosbox) could sound just like the old awe 32 Soundblaster card. But i could nowhere find such files. And even if i would find something i don?t know how to use them. I hope someone can help me.

Hi
I'm not sure if your card is SoundFont capable but ...

Does this driver improve sound quality or performance Are there any tweaks ?
No, this driver does not improve sound quality nor increase performance.
No, there are no tweaks.
If someone states that its driver improves sound quality and performance, you are being fooled, cheated.
It is even worse that the so called tweaks come from a person who is not EVEN technically acknowledged, does NOT know anything about Windows internals, software engineering and sound fidelity that all audiophiles always look for.
If you "feel" the sound better, that is the infamous placebo effect and there is no real proof that any tweaks work.
In fact, I have yet to see a driver that states in its release notes that it improves sound quality.
I've disassembled about every single .SYS driver, .DLL libraries and .EXE executables and found nothing.
There are some undocumented registry values, but nothing related to sound quality or performance.
Would the so called tweaks even exist, they would be in my Support Packs, you can bet that.
Fixes and improvements:
- Fixed Audigy 5/RX support.
- Readded "EndPoint Utility" to enable the use of other digital devices to output Dolby Digital Live encoded audio.
- Fixed driver installation issues on Windows 10.
- Fixed Audigy "1" or Audigy 2 mute issue.
- Audigy RX is now fully supported.
- EAX Console now works on Windows Vista or later.
- Karaoke effects now work properly on Windows Vista or later, just use EAX Console to enable them. Effects will only be applied to the Microphone input.
- Sound Blaster Audigy Control Panel now available for all cards, but it lacks many settings available on Audio Console, so use the later.
- Added instructions on how to install the Gameport.
- Fixed missing speaker settings strings on Windows XP when DDL is enabled.
- Improved driver installation, less confirmation prompts.
- Improved setup procedure and scripts.
- Removed Encode switcher for now, only DDL is available.
- Installation now customizable, select what you want to install.
- New integrated Post Driver Install Helper tweaks the driver without tampering certificate.
- CMSS2 is now available.
- OpenAL 64-bit support.
- Dolby Digital Live now works on Windows 8.1 (update 1). Creative Audio Service was not being installed on that OS.
- Special FX, Advanced EQ, Studio and Custom presets now available on Windows Vista or later.
- Audio Console does not crash anymore on non-English localized installs. Localized resources for Online Karaoke tab were missing; added mostly localized Korean and Chinese (Traditional) resources.
- Online Karaoke page is available for all Audigy cards on Windows Vista or later; this is NOT a new feature, but an easier way to configure the Microphone.
- EAX Settings for Windows Vista or later includes EAX Studio, a fancy version of EAX Control Panel, no changes in functionality, except the Test button now works.
- Added fully localized Korean and Chinese (Traditional) resources for EAX Studio, which were missing.
Undocumented fixes by Creative (not listed in the release notes):
- Headphone mode now sticks and does not revert automatically to Speakers mode on Windows Vista or later.
- Special FX, Advanced EQ and Studio presets were not working on Windows Vista or later.
Release Notes:
IMPORTANT: Driver uninstall on Windows Vista or later
The included driver for Windows Vista or later has a bug that causes a stop (blue screen) error when unloaded by disabling the Audigy or uninstalling the driver.
To workaround this issue, run the KillDrv.exe utility included and restart when asked to do so. Proceed normally and uninstall all the software or only the driver.
If you have previously installed the Audigy 5/RX driver, you MUST run this utility.
As the KillDrv verify the driver version installed, running it won't do any harm, even if the driver version is not affected.
HOW TO INSTALL THE GAMEPORT DRIVER
You can find a Gameport\ReadMe.htm file in the folder where you unpacked the Support Pack.
Just follow the steps shown in the screenshots.
WINDOWS 8.1 OR LATER DOES NOT SAVE SETTINGS
- Configure all settings and shutdown. Your settings will be saved.
- This does not work if you disable Fast startup permanently or temporarily (by holding the Shift key while shutting down).
OpenAL 2D benchmark in RightMark 3DSound crashes your system
The included driver for Windows Vista or later has a bug that crashes your system if you run the OpenAL 2D benchmark using 63 buffers.
No problem With 62 or fewer buffers.
OpenAL 3D and OpenAL 3D + EAX benchmarks are not affected.
Details: DRIVER_IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL (0x000000D1) - ctoss2k.sys
There is no DirectSound hardware acceleration on Windows XP 64-bit (x64) with 4GB RAM or more
The Audigy driver does not support 64-bit addressing, disabling the DirectSound hardware acceleration and causing multichannel sound to be played only in the stereo channels (front left/right).
Workarounds:
- install the 32-bit (x86) version of Windows XP.
- limit to less than 4GB the amount of RAM available to Windows.
- enable the "Memory Hole" setting in the BIOS Setup, if your motherboard supports it.
- install and use Creative ALchemy to convert the DirectSound API calls into OpenAL, which is not affected by this issue.
Karaoke effects make the audio play in mono
You can avoid this issue by using EAX Console to enable Karaoke effects. Audio Console is affected by the issue.
Optionally, follow the steps below.
Open EAX Settings, select a Karaoke effect, then click the Edit button.
Click on the Source (Wave) tab and change the Original sound to 100% and Pitch Shift to 0%. Click the Save environment button.
Repeat the steps for all Karaoke effects.
These changes will be valid only for the current speaker configuration. If desired, repeat the same process for each speaker configuration.
MediaSource DVD-Audio Player system requirements
- 32-bit edition of Windows XP or later
- any Audigy 2, Audigy 2 ZS or Audigy 4 card
Built-in Decoder on Windows Vista or later
To use the built-in decoder, make sure it is enabled in Audio Console.
Select "SPDIF Out (Creative SB Audigy (WDM))" as the output device of your player and then configure the AC3/DTS filter to send the stream through SPDIF.
When you restart your computer, the Tone settings (Bass and Treble) are not applied.
Just readjust one of the controls one time per boot.
Equalizer and EAX effects are not available when using OpenAL or ALchemy
Only Tone (Bass and Treble) and CMSS 3D (CMSS, CMSS2 and Stereo Surround) features are available.
There is no sound in games with OpenAL support
Disable Advanced EQ and Special FX by selecting "No effect" before running the game or program.
Equalizer settings are not applied after using OpenAL or ALchemy
After you run a game with OpenAL support or using Creative ALchemy, the Equalizer settings are applied.
Just run Equalizer and the saved setting is loaded automatically.
Tone settings are lost when speaker configuration is changed
Bass and treble settings reset to their default values when speaker configuration is changed.

Karaoke Player
You can use hardware or software-based Microphone effects.
If you select an effect in the Karaoke Player itself, it will be software-based and you might experience delays or increased CPU utilization.
If you enable the Karaoke effect in the EAX Console, it will be hardware-based (using the Audigy DSP) with no delay and not relying in the system's CPU. Highly recommended.
I did not make any extensive tests, so please try the software-based Microphone effects and share your experiences.

I was playing my music when I had realized that I forgot to configure my sound card for them, as I was getting mono instead of stereo (was only playing out of left speakers). So I go into speaker setup and click on "calibrate speakers" or something like that. Anyway, the speaker calibrator says that It could not be ran for some reason (i forget). I figure that it wasn't working because I hadn't updated anything yet. I update, and I still get the same message. So I reinstalled the software and updated it again and now when I try to run ANY of my creative software related to the sound card (I.E. EAX console, Speaker Setup) it says that "The Audio device supported by this software is not detected. The Application will now shut down."? Now remember that I'm not great with computers, so my solution now will probably sound stupid. But anyways I figured that I had installed the wrong sound card software (it gives me three choices on the disc). I uninstall everything and choose another setting. I still got the same problem. So I try the third choice and I get the same problem. Any suggestions? I've tried all three choices and I still get the same problem.

I have the SoundBlaster Audigy 2 ZS sound card installed in my Dell 8400 PC. Does anyone know what the latest SoundBlaster Audigy 2 ZS driver version is? I currently have driver v 5.2.4.445 and date 8.7.04 I've tried to install this from the Creative site: SBA2_PCWDRV_LB__84_55-R.exe but keep getting a "setup could not detect and sound blaster audigy 2 on your system" error. The driver on the Dell site is: Creative Labs SoundBlaster Audigy 2 ZS: R92022.exe Thanks! Tony.
Hi
You may first need to patch the driver package by using ctcomp.exe to get std. drivers (eg. not Dell specific) installed to your Dell PC. Search this forum after ctcomp.exe --> there you'll find some instructions too.
You can also find a link to the latest drivers available (I personally use Audigy 4 drivers from november 2005 --> can be found from creative support pages) by searching this forum (I think the latest WHQL version is .~62 for the original version).

SoundBlaster Audigy,DR

Presently using the Soundblaster Audigy, DR sound card with Bose speakers on? Windows Vista Premium OS. I have to go beyond halfway?on the volume setting to really get? good sound. Have installed the latest driver from Creative for Vista. As stated cannot use the original software for my device. My other system with Windows XP Pro does a marvelous job with the sound on my Bose speakers. Anyone know what the problem might be other than purchasing a new sound card?

i MUST REMOVE THE AUDIGY 4 to play the games and sent to third world as present...
Anyone can support me?
I think it's the TRUST 800 DV PCI KIT fireware 400/800 that goes in conflict with Audigy..MAYBE (but i need it for hd fw)? Anyhelp?
