No bass on Windows 7 32-bit with X-Fi Xtreme Audio

I just upgraded from the Windows 7 64-bit beta (where everything was working fine) to Windows 7 Ultimate Retail 32bit, and I am having the issue of no bass. I had this issue with the beta, but to fix it I disabled full range speakers. I tried that here, and it still isn't working. I've tried enabling bass redirection, bass boost, and I've even tried daniel_k's support pack. Still no luck.
I hope somebody can help.

A little different story here but the same result :
- Windows Seven Professional 64bits Edition (French)
- X-Fi Xtreme Gamer (lastest driver 2.8.003?)
And of course one big issue : no bass/subwoofer doesn't work. Browsing on the Internet and on the Creative forums seems that this issue is common under Windows Seven.... :/
Any help/clue/offical word ?
Many Thanks in advance !

Trouble getting SPDIF with Xi-Fi Xtreme Audio

-Trouble getting SPDIF with Xi-Fi Xtreme Audio? Hey guys,
I'm going crazy here, bought today a Sound Blaster X-Fi Xtreme Audio PCI-Express, the idea was to go toslink from card digital out to my receiver and to bitstream dolby digital and DTS... as I said that was the idea...
First problem, the CD was broken, no biggie went to the website and got myself the drivers - XFXA_PCDRV_LB__04_0000.exe? I installed that, rebooted and was welcomed by the updater application, I went to check what was there and most of it seems unecessary, I found a bit strange that it was telling me I needed the file I just installed, but I selected everything that was critical and launched the +250mb update (yuck) and I was very happy to see it was downloading at 30kbps (...)
After installing all that and rebooting I went in the control pannel to look for the SPDIF option but couldn't find anything relevant so went to read the manual and the first thing it says is click the decoder tab... and well I don't have a decoder tab, it's simply not there...
I thought I made a mistake, so I uninstalled everything, by the way this thing is a freaking nightmare to uninstall properly and this time went step by step making sure I wasn't missng a point and guess what I spent another 2 hour downloading at year 992 speeds, but got to the very same result, the decoder tab is not here.
So far it has been very frustrating but I'm some of you guys will make it all ok with a simple fix :P
I run windows XP SP3, already gave you sound card I use and driver I downloaded, If you need anything else just ask, I'll be around
Thx

First you talk about DAC, this is precisely what I'm trying to avoid, this is a 50$ card, I have a 7'000$ receiver I obviously want the digital to analog conversion to be done by the receiver, same goes for the decoding, actually I never expected a card this cheap to decode anything, I just want it to send the digital sound bit per bit (or bitstream) to receiver, it will do the DAC and Dolby/DTS decoding and of course it will do it much better
A card with a 48kHz-only DAC, that also puts out SPDIF, will put out 48kHz SPDIF in sync with the input, which means unless audio operations are attempted on a 48kHz encoding before it is sent to the card, which will destroy the encoding, it will be passed through without alteration.
The specs on the card's DACs don't look that bad. I for one wouldn't assume that those functions on your receiver are going to be that much better, and Dolby/DTS decoding is either done right or doesn't work at all. If I were you, I'd do a comparison test before making that particular assumption.
So what you're saying is simply using the card even though I don't see anything related to SPDIF should be enough and applications will take care of the bitstream, I use AC3filter with reclock and indeed I can select the audio device, but it ain't working at all.
There may be a problem with the AC3filter/ReClock combination. To check this, you could try playing a DVD with an "ordinary" player that has an SPDIF output selection.
When you say it ain't working at all, what exactly is happening?
BTW, if you are using AC3filter to make AC3 on the fly, you are probably doing extra encoding/decoding steps using a lossy encoding just to use your receiver's decoder, to which I personally would prefer using the card's analog outs connected to a receiver's multichannel inputs, unless comparison testing unexpectedly demonstated the extra encoding sounded better to me.
You keep saying this *basic card*, I was under the impression that creative was only doing basic card, if there's another model that will work out of the box to bitstream digital sound, please give me the reference number, I'll be happy to throw this card out my window and get one that works
An audio cable can do DD/DTS passthrough. Like a cable, your card is simple enough that its hardware will do passthough if fed a valid 48kHz encoding. CL's smarter cards have onboard mixing and use hardware sample-rate-conversion techniques any of which can destroy an encoding. These cards have to be put in a special mode which bypasses all that to accomplish passthrough successfully because by default they will destroy encodings.

Weblogic Portal 10.3.2 for Windows 64 bit with OEPE

Our environment is Windows 64 bit and we are upgrading from Weblogic Portal 9.2 to 10.3.2.
I have installed Weblogic Portal for 64 bit using generic installer and have also installed OEPE Helios for 64 bit.
I am not getting Portal perspective in Eclipse?

These issues are why we dropped every Oracle products for our new projects. We only kept Oracle SGBD.
Working with Oracle products costs a lot, impose specific tools, impose specific environment (can't work with Windows 7/x64), doesn't integrate in standard toolchains (eclipse, maven, continuous integration, ...). More, you don't have any control on product evolutions and maintenance.
With this decision we saved a lot of money, a lot of time, quality, and community support is far more powerful than buyers think. Nothing is better than standards!
Sorry Oracle but I think you need to seriously rethink your commercial behavior and your relationship with J2EE developers.

Logic Pro 9.18 32 bit with Tascam US-366 Audio Interface

Hi
I recently purchased a Tascam US 366 Audio Interface to use with Logic Pro 9.18
I have uploaded the latest drivers/firmware but have a problem with crackling/popping
The problem seems to be that the CPU in Logic is peaking when the US 366 is chosen in the audio section...Pro tools aggregate and built in audio is very low within the CPU! Any ideas before returning the product! Have tried everything!

It records in 24-bit with the check box enabled - this is more than enough for recording and exceeds the dynamic range of convertors.
16-bit when unchecked.
Do not confuse how an application is compiled (32-bit or 64-bit) with how audio is recorded or processed - they are completely different things.

Oracle installation on Windows 64 bit with Intel Xeon

Hi!
we have Windows Enterprise Server SP2 64 bit with Intel Xeon processor and would like to install the SOLMAN with Oracle.
According to the original Oracle-DVD from SAP there are only three possible choise entries:
a) AMD64
b) IA64
c) I386
But I have the feeeling it should be one choice like "x86" is not?
Which one should we apply?
The I386 can be installed indeed, but we are getting the error during the SAPINST-Installation "Oracle software not installed". I thought this entry was only for 32 bit?
The IA63 Bit can not be installed.
Only the AMD64 we could install. But the question is, whether AMD is the same to Intel Xeon?
Thank you very much for any useful help/comments...
regards

AMD64 is the correct one.
IA64 is "Intel Itanium-2"
I386 is generic "Intel Pentium (32bit)"
AMD64 is the generic term for processors supporting EM64T (Intel) or AMD Opteron

Hello Steve,
I recommend to post this query to the [BusinessObjects Enterprise Administration|BI Platform; forum.
This forum is dedicated to topics related to administration and configuration of BusinessObjects Enterprise, BusinessObjects Edge, and Crystal Reports Server.
It is monitored by qualified technicians and you will get a faster response there.
Also, all BOE Administration queries remain in one place and thus can be easily searched in one place.

Need help with X-FI Xtreme Audio PCI-Express

Well, I installed this soundcard in windows 7/64 bits, and in the creative folder in start menu it only shows:
Creative Diagnostics
Creative Media Toolbox
Creative Software Autoupdate
Creative Wavestudio 7
Creative Audio Control Panel
Alchemy
Creative Media Source 5
When I connect my microphone it gives me no sound at all. So, I search for the Audio Console and it'ss not showing anywhere.
When I select autoupdate it tells me that I have the last versions of all.
What?s missing, where is the audio console?
Where can I found entretainement mode?
Thanks for the help.

Yes. Just remember if you ever want to install a tv tuner card you will have to choose between the 2.

How do I install Elements for Windows 7 PC with 64 bit? Get error message - file archive part missing

We purchased Elements 12 and Premiere Elements 12 on September 7, 2014 and have tried a variety of things including searching through FAQs on the Adobe site, etc. etc. and cannot get our downloads to work. We are avid computer users and have never had problems downloading software before.
From our account under "orders" - I have tried clicking on the Akamai download manager and the Alternate Download Method on for each application with the same results.
We have a Windows 7 PC with a 64 bit operating system and Internet Explorer 11.
On all attempts we get an Adobe screen with 2 links – 1 for a file ending in .7z and a 2nd file ending in .exe.
I click on the first file and confirm the download completes at 100% (not paused, etc.) and is in the downloads folder for my user name on the PC.
I click on the 2nd link for .exe and I receive the error message below – 2nd screen shot – “file archive is missing” all folders/files must be in same folder.
So I see it’s a winzip file (as a winzip pop up folder had come up also) so I download the free version and unzip the files in the same downloads folder under my user name to try that.
I click on .exe file link again and same message. I tried copying the files directly to the downloads folder (as they all unzipped into a subfolder called PSE 12 and tried clicking on .exe again but get the same message.
For Premiere I tried the same and got same results on the 64 bit version download.
I do not know how to access the software we purchased.
Any help or advice is appreciated.
Also - if anyone knows how I can contact Adobe for a full refund so I can just buy the boxed software instead - that would be helpful as well as that is not easy to find online either.
Thanks!

I get an error message saying that the quicktime installer will only work on 32 bit
The QuickTime player works on 64-bit systems. (It's a 32-bit application, but it should run fine using the standard 32-bit-on-64-bit Windows-on-Windows emulation.)
What's the precise text of your installation error message, dc? (There one or two different ones I can think of that might mention 32-bit)

How to install windows 8.1 64 bit with a DVD

has anyone found a workaround to install windows 8.1 64 bit with a retail DVD?

Gotcha!!
I am done with mounting a secondary HDD (thanks to ifixit) and installing Windows 8 Pro 64 bit on it without a worry. Charm, charm!!
Boot Camp 5 guide prescribes all needed steps and when read and used correctly, installation must be an easy task. And all the existing apple hardwares work so good in the Windows environment too.
I am going to help out a friend of mine in doing a similar thing on his mac too. If you got specific questions, please do shoot up here and i should be able to get a reply to it (if at all).
Thanks everyone.

Windows 7 64-bit with Boot Camp 5: keyboard & mouse don't work

Running OS-X 10.8.5 on iMac 27 Late 2013. Everything goes smoothly installing Windows 7 64-bit with Boot Camp 5.0.4 until Windows does its final reboot (after a complete, apparently successful install), and begins the Windows setup sequence. The first setup screen asks for User name and PC name. My mouse and keyboard do not work at this point. Tried cold rebooting: Windows boots up, detects it needs to do first use setup, and gets to same failure point.
NOTE: I have never had a chance to install the Windows support drivers; but the mouse and keyboard worked through out the istallation.
I've tried two different W7 versions: 64-bit Pro and 64-bit Enterprise [Enterprise is not supported, but I have installed it on an iMac 27 2010, and a MacBook Air 2013.]. Both versions of W7 hang at the same point described above.
I've tried a Windows DVD install disk plus Windows support drivers on a flash drive; and I've tried a bootable flash drive with everything on it. Both fail at the same point.
I have tried both wireless and USB keyboards and mouse. Same failure.
I have even tried removing the flash drive with Windows support drivers before the final reboot. Same failure.
NOTE: when I reboot in OS-X and go to the Startup Disk, the windows option says "Untitled Windows" instead of Boot Camp; but I can select it, and it starts the Windows boot which ends up at the same Windows setup failure point.
Has anyone had the same problem?
Has anyone succeeded? If so, any special actions or ideas?

The issue may be related to the iMac 2013 only having USB 3.0 ports and that windows 7 does not come with drivers for it. Try the following (borrowed from answer on Mac Rumors Forums http://forums.macrumors.com/showthread.php?t=1659481):
<quote>
If you run into issues with keyboard and mouse not working (due to USB 3.0 and Win 7 incompatibility), you need to run your Win 7 partition (and Win 7 installation disk/partition) in legacy mode. (I found this information at:http://twocanoes.com/winclone/support#faq123 - see "Method using Terminal"). Here you will be setting the legacy on the installation volume of win 7, not bootcamp partition (yet). After running the diskutil list find the volume with installer of Win 7, and then run the command (substituting the disk1s2 below with the information you find through diskutil on your computer:
sudo /usr/sbin/bless --device /dev/disk1s2 --setBoot --nextonly --legacy
Enter administrative password when prompted. Next, select Restart from the Apple menu. Do not hold the Option key while restarting.
You should have mouse/keyboard working. Begin the Windows 7 installation. Upon first restart right after the installer completes, boot into Mac and set the legacy mode for the BootCamp partition (but this time without the --nextonly flag), so you can use keyboard/mouse to complete the installation and thereafter until the USB 3.0 drivers are installed).

However, the exported image seems to be OK. But now I notice that my LR directory of folders in Library view does not show images correctly: If there is a folder with sub-folder(s), the folder will indicate 0 images, but the sub-folders show the proper number of images.

Hotsync with bluetooth or network from TX to Windows 7 Professional 64 bit (with XP option)

Hello!
I have read and tried to follow the posts on these support boards plus hints given by Palm about this predicament. I think I have set up the TX for both Bluetooth and local wireless network. However, even if the TX recognizes my computer, it will NOT hot sync using either method. With one method there are issues with the virtual serial ports. No matter which port I choose the message always says it cannot hot sync because the port is in use by another program. HELP!!
I can't begin to tell you how many hours I have spent trying to get the first hot sync to work. MOST FRUSTRATING. Please help me out. I understand the USB connection is out with a 64 bit Windows 7, But I do have the option of the WIndows XP mode with my Windows 7 Professional (one reason I bought this edition of Win 7).
I love my TX and want to be able to use it with the new computer. I look forward to your combined expertise. Thank you in advance.

It runs fine on 64 bit. I have it running on Windows 8 Pro 64 bit. Just have Quicktime installed first otherwise the install will fail. Sorry for the late reply.
