Pci sound card and beats together?

I have an HPE h8-01280t with built in beats audio.  I'd like to install a Creative Labs pci audio card so that beats will play through my computer speakers while I can output simultaneous pci audio to another device (beats in analog, pci in digital output).  Can I do this?
This question was solved.

I doubt if that can be done. Cause once you install a pci sound card, the integrated sound gets disabled.
You cannot get output from both.

  • Sound Blaster Live 24-bit PCI Sound Card and Creative Sound Blaster PCI Card not detect

    Ok here is my problem. I bought a Creative Sound Blaster PCI sound card a while back and it was working fine but recently when I would boot up my computer and try to play music say off of Winamp it says Bad DirectSound Driver. When I check device manager it shows no sound card there and in sounds and audio devices it says no audio device. Now my brother believed this to be a card fault so we went to Frys and bought a Sound Blaster Li've 24-bit PCI card. I uninstalled the old drivers and installed this new one but yet it's the same problem. My assumption was that Windows XP had something conflicting so I reinstalled the OS. It found the card and I installed the latest drivers?off of this site but now it does the same thing yet again with a fresh install of Windows XP. The card has been in all 3 of my PCI slots and it will detect it for a moment but then acts like as if the card was never installed. Like I never installed a sound card into the computer. The onboard audio has been disabled for a while now but I do not know what the problem could be. I did Scan for hardware changes but it doesn't show up. Sometimes when the card is detected if I do scan for hardware changes and the card is there it will just magically disappear from the device manager as if it was never there. Even when I try to load music and I see the card is detected it will not play the music and ends up locking up Winamp to the point that sometimes will go BSOD. Now I would really like to find out what the issue is because I am planning this weekend to swap out my motherboard with a duplicate board to see if that will end up fixing the problem but I want to find out if there is any other way to fix this issue. Thank you.Message Edited by AuXoIs on 02-25-200808:28 PM

    Hmm what other options is there for the bios on PCI slots?Also anything you connect to the motherboard can have oxidization (I think its that) build up on the connection. Check the connector on the card and get a eraser (Pen eraser is better) and give it a good cleaning. The connector might have alot of build-up on it and you can see it by a dark yellowy colour. I cleaned my graphics card and ram connectors after they got alot of the build-up on them. On a older computer my graphics stopped working and this fixed it. Also I went away for a while (like a month) and came back to see that my puter didn't display anything. Opened it up and saw that the graphic card had alot of corrosion? on the card connector and in the slot. Does that if you computer is turned of for a long time. Had a heck of time trying to clean the slot out. One other thing that it could be is the sound card is faulty. I had an audigy 2 and it died a while back . It picks it up and then try and use it computer freezes and the after restart it's not there anymore. Hope it's not that problem. Hope this gives you something to go by.

  • How to get WHAT U HEAR option for PCI Express X-Fi Titanium sound card and Windows 7

    how to get WHAT U HEAR option for PCI Express X-Fi Titanium sound card and Windows 7 ? Is it on the basic driver? or do you have to install some other software?
    jane

    You have to install the rest of the software(s) for the sound card. The software is (if it is with the installation CD, though) called "Creative Smart Recorder" or something like that.

  • Dv6265us connexant PCI sound card + windows 7 = Not working

    So I'm here becuase I can't find a driver on my own.  I've scoured the internet for hours, finding very little to help with my issue.  So here goes...
    I have an HP Pavilion dv6000 (Dv6265us), and ever since I installed window 7, Windows cannot figure out what drivers to install for the PCI sound card.  The best I've found so far says this:
    "Windows found driver software for your device but encountered an error while attempting to install it"
        "Microsoft UAA Bus Driver for High Definition Audio"
    "If you know the manufacturer of your device, you can visit its website and check the support section for driver software."
    Now here's the funky part...everywhere I've found information on my laptop, it says I have a Conexant PCI sound card.  If I'm wrong I would love for someone to tell me; better yet, a link to a download to actually be able to use the PCI sound card.  Right now the card is under other devices and is listed as "PCI Device". 
    Now the Link I've provided from the conexant site will tell you this under PC Audio Support - Windows® 7,
    "Conexant develops audio solutions that are used in a wide range of products including personal computers. We provide customized audio drivers to our customers, which include major computer manufacturers globally. At the request of these manufacturers, Conexant does not provide end-user support or drivers for PC audio products. If you have an issue with the audio configuration in Windows 7, please contact the manufacturer of your computer.
    I tried calling HP support, but they wouldn't even answer my yes or no question... "Do you have audio drivers for my laptop that will allow me to hear sound?"  Instead of saying yes or no, I was told that I needed to pay fifty to one-hundred dollars;....fifty dollars for a one time fee of telephone service, or one-hundred for the year.  I even went as far as asking..."if you can't fix my problem, do I get a refund?"  I was told no...so here I am.  I've had problems before with hp...but this is rediculous, and whats worse is from the way things look, Connexant was told NOT to support their own product, or provide drivers for windows 7 by their customer(HP).  I realize everyone is hurting for money, but **bleep**, this is a new low...

    To answer your question, there are no windows 7 drivers for that model notebook. The notebook was designed for Windows 2000, Windows xp and windows vista.
    This is one of the issues with upgrading the OS on a computer before checking the specs of the hardware.
    I do understand the frustration but it would be more beneficial to revert back to the original OS that the notebook came with. That is what the HP support desk will have you do to prove functionality of the notebook should you have paid for the Diagnostic Support.
    Although I am an HP employee, I am speaking for myself and not for HP. Clicking the "Kudos star" to the left is a great way to say thanks!

  • Not one affordable PCI sound card for G4 & Tiger - NOT ONE!!!!

    Hi All,
    I cannot find any, not one, affordable PCI sound card in Australia that I can use in my G4 using Tiger Grrrrr
    I bought a card ($40 Aust) that had an Mac logo on the packaging - of course there are no drivers for it! How rude!
    It has the CMedia CMI8738 chipset. Sells in the U S of A for less than $10!
    For some reason Apple never put a microphone input on these machine. Yes I know about iMic.
    Even a 2.1 basic card with mic - no, no, no ....

  • How can collect the data from laptop sound card and serial port at the same time?

    I'm working on a project, I need to collect the data from laptop sound card, and also from serial port at the same time.
    The attachments are my VIs for sound card and serial port communication, I'm wondering that can I combine these two VIs together? Or can I run these two VI at the same time?

    A smarter way is just to put all your code in the same VI.
    Two parallel loops if rates are different.

    Thanks for help
    Therock500

    It really depends on what you're doing and your speaker configuration.
    If it is cheap in comparison to other price checking, it may be worth it.
    I have the exats same board and used the onboard sound for a few months until I got sick of it not doing what I was used to like the MCP-T southbridge of the NF1 & 1 (Soundstorm) I wasn't using digital out and I have the speakers in my signature. With my TV card, I was unable to get sound in all 4 speakers correctly and I was unable to control the bass. I had tried both the drivers from the CD and the latest Realtek drivers.
    I just did not like it much at all so I had a SB live 5.1 card I had lying on a shelf. I downloaded the latest drivers with the same skepticism as TireSmoke has. My findings are that the drivers have greatly improved and you don't have to install the bloated utilities that are associated with Creative drivers. It worked the way I wanted it to for the most part without any issue.
    What I found is the onboard sound seems a little deeper and warmer as opposed to the Creative solution but I was willing to give that up for the functionality. The Creative sounds a little stronger in the midrange and highs and the Bass was just slightly muted but still acceptable.
    I then graduated to the Audigy 2 ZS in my signature and the sound is slightly better and I have to say that Creative is doing a better job with the drivers. I did install with all the options just to see what impact it all has. I have to say, my only complaint is the look and feel of the interfaces still look a little cheesy but I have the option to disable most of that or simply not install any of it except the drivers.

  • Front audio with PCI sound card?

    Well, the front audio on my Antec P160W worked perfectly with the integrated sound, but I changed to my SoundBlaster Audigy Player because of the HORRIBLE audio quality. Now the front audio ports don't work. What do I need to do to make it work again? I'm not going back to the integrated.
    At first I thought that I had to put the connectors for the front audio on the sound card, but the manual of it doesn't show any of those features.

    I was wondering that myself. The only thing I think you could possibly do is have both the onboard and the pci sound card enabled and use the onboard sound just for the headphones. I have no tried this yet as I do have the cables connected to the mobo but I have the onboard sound disabled.

  • Sound Blaster Sound Cards and Gigaworks S750

    I recently purchased a Sound Blaster Zx sound card and found that it only supports up to 5.1 speaker configurations. That means I don't have sound from my side speakers in my Gigaworks S750 7.1 system. Needless to say I am very disappointed with Creative Labs engineers wondering why 7.1 support has been dropped from their very own speaker systems. I am posting hoping some more knowledgeable forum members can offer a better solution to my dilemma.
    I could go back to my X-Fi Extreme Music card which has all of the 3.5 mm minijack speaker connectors but I would rather not do this as support for this card has been dropped and I am doubtful that there will be many more driver and/or software updates available. I would also rather not buy a new speaker system b/c I am happy with the Gigaworks and don't really want to replace it.
    I looked going back to an older Titanium HD soundcard but it only has RCA connectors on the back of the soundcard and the Gigaworks connectors are 3.5 mm minijacks. The Gigaworks has no optical or HDMI connectors anywhere. I wonder....can I connect the 3.5 mm jacks from the Gigaworks to the RCA or optical ports on the ZX or Titanium HD with an adapter or converter? Does Creative sell new cables or adaptors, or any special audio shop for that matter, that would make the connections work?
    Can anyone help please?
    Thanks!

    As I said, that upmix is only a workaround, you still have just 5.1 discrete channels, just that the rear and sidespeakers emit the same sound.
    I don't have any experience with Asus or Auzentech. Both have their issues as well but they are both very good and only the very best creative cards (X-Fi Titanium HD, ZxR and perhaps X-Fi Elite Pro) can compete.
    On the other side Asus has most of their cards in production for half a decade without alteration and doesn't update their drivers very often as well. Their don't be as many issues as with creative cards, but you will find people having problems as well, it's not like they work flawlessly for everyone.
    Same for Auzentech, only they didn't produce as highend cards as Asus and some Creatives (Titanium HD and ZxR only) plus while their dirver support seems to be good, their other support is nonexistant, especially since they seem to have stopped producing soundcards. Additionaly I have heard of the X-Fi Forte mysteriously dying on many people after some years.
    The differences aren't great, though, and in my opinion you won't find a soundcard combining everything to perfection. The ZxR nearly does, only lacking 7.1 output.
    The Asus Xonar STX is very similar, but can only ouput analoge stereo, while the PCI-based ST can output the very best analoge 7.1 available with a additional daughtercard (but who wants a PCI card nowadays?).
    The best 7.1 cards from Asus, D2 and D2X, lack a Headphone-Amp, while the Xonar Xense and Phoebus, being nearly identical to each other, have one but use a slightly lesser DAC for all channels apart from Stereo, similar to the Auzentech X-Fi Forte and Bravura.
    The D1 and DX finally are only slightly better than the X-Fi Music and Titanium, because they use a slightly better DAC for Stereo, which is used on Audigy 4 Pro and X-Fi Elite Pro for all channels and for stereo on the soundblaster Z and Zx.
    Everything below (Xonar DG(X) and DS(X)) ist far inferior, though the DG(X) sports a cheap headphone-amp even the D2X lacks.
    So, if you only want 7.1 as good as possible, the Xonar D2X is the best solution, followed by the D2, Auzentech X-Fi Prelude and Creative X-Fi Elite Pro.
    But, if you want to drive very good headphones, too, the Xonar Xense, Phoebus and Auzentech X-Fi Forte will be the better solution.
    None of them will be as good as the ZxR, if you can live with discrete 5.1 only.
    The minijack cables aren't an option. Just when you connect your Gigaworks to any Asus, Auzentech, Creative X-Fi Titanium card or most onboard codecs you have to use 4 stereo minijack cables, while for any Creative 6.1/7.1 card from Audigy 2 to X-Fi PCI-series you have to use a special 4 stereo to 3 4-pin minijack cable, which probably came with your gigawarks set.
    If you want to use any "normal" sound card you don't need any special cable, it's just 4x any normal stereo minijack cable.

  • Does Front Panel Audio Work When Using RCA Outputs from the X-Fi Titanium HD PCIe Sound Card?

    I see that the rear panel headphone output is disabled when the soundcard RCA jacks are used.
    But is it possible to have the front panel audio output work at the same time that the RCA jacks are in use or is it also disabled?
    I am willing to tolerate inferior quality audio feeding my monitor and use the RCA jacks for my headphone amp.

    I was able to construct a work around for this problem. A Y splitter from the RCA outputs is an option but can degrade the sound because of the uneven load presented to the soundcard.
    Ten eleven inch Apevia CVTAUDIOE25 HD Audio extension cables were connected together in series to a SilverStone FP32 3.5 audio front panel bay. The extension cables were connected to the front panel audio connectors on the Titanium HD sound card and then the cables were run out of the computer case and up to the area near my keyboard. I connected the front panel audio bay to the extension cable and the bay sits next to the keyboard. When no 3.5 mm stereo cable is connected to the front bay near the keyboard the sound is normal out of the rear outputs. But when a 3.5 mm audio cable is plugged into the front panel bay audio there is sound out of the SilverStone front panel bay. The sound is still muted out of the rear RCA jacks when the plug is put in the front bay but it is only used when the main audio outputs are not required.
    The function for me is that the front bay serves the same purpose that the previous front panel 3.5 mm audio extension cable did.
    There are photos of this under a different user name on Audio Asylum PC Audio.

    Assuming that you tried to install Win 7 in bootcamp.
    Power on the machine and press and hold the "option" key when you hear the bong sound.
    Select the Macintosh HD icon and press "return" or just click on the icon.
    Once booted into OS X go to System Preferences and select the Startup Disk icon and configure startup to use the Macintosh HD.

  • Line connection between PCI-6527 card and instrument

    Sorry for my foolish. My poor electronic knowledge prevent me from fully understanding what you explained in your last reply and need more help.
    In fact, we plan to control two instrument switchs, one is for the Magnetic_Suspension_Control(MSC) , another is for control the Weight-changing-Device(WCD).
    The instrument manufacturer provide a cable for the MSC and WCD. The cable looks as follows: there is one connection to the computer(25-pin subD-plug) of which two cables lead away, one to the MSC(6-pin Lemosa)and the other to the WCD(15-pin subD-plug).
    The interface of the MSC is internally realized by using only two simple optocouples(OC). Their input-pins are connected directly to the 25-pin SubD-plug of
    cable as follwing:
    25-pol.SubD; meaning
    Pin 9 anode of OC1-LED
    Pin 7 anode of OC2-LED
    Pin 23 cathode of OC-LED
    Pin 18 cathode of OC-LED
    Because of the optocouplers draw some current from the NI-card, the manufacturer let me make sure that the NI-card can source circa 7mA(better 10mA) on each pin.
    The interface of the WCD consists of three simple TTL-level inputs, which are also directly connected to the 25-pin SubD-plug of our cable as following:
    25-pol.SubD; meaning
    Pin 4 TTL-Input (remote) (0-1V/3.5-5V)
    Pin 3 TTL-Input (weight 1) (0-1V/3.5-5V)
    Pin 2 TTL-Input (weight 2)(0-1V/3.5-5V)
    Pin 5 common ground
    The current drawn by the TTL-inputs is not worth mentioning.
    By controling the logic state of these above pin states through labview, I then can control the instrument switch.
    Based on above information, how should I choose right resistor for achieving the suitable v
    oltage and current on each pin and How should I connect line between PCI-6527 card and 25-pin sub-D plug(I plan to use port 3 of PCI-6527 card).
    Thanks, your help is greatly appreciately
    zhou

    Zhou,
    My best recommendation is that you find someone who can give you a better and more direct advise in electronic circuiting. We don't have in our hands the manual of your instrument in order to clarify what it needs and where, although you gave some pin numbers we cannot take the risk of advising something that we don't have the absolute knowledge of. We can give you all the details you want about our card and what does it gives, but you have to decide how are you going to connect it to your instrument. If you recall your email about the manual, in fig. 3-6 page 3-12 you can see a picture of how to connect a TTL driven device, in the last email we gave you an option of how to connect the resistor and where, please read it again, basically I am going to repeat the same, we feel sorry about not been able to give you more help, but is opt to you to find help in electronic theory. Remember in my last email that I told you the 3 cases in which your instrument may need either voltage, current or both, and I told you how RL will change and what new resistors you may need to connect. Review that and make tests with your switch, your question about how to choose the right resistor is answered in the previous email and how to connect lines between the board and the cable of your instrument you have both pin outs... match them... the person who has in his hands the manual and the instrument is the best person to choose how to interfase both appliances... we are sorry Zhou but if we advise you about pin connections of your device with our blindness we have of your device we may make a mistake, we told you about our pins and how to choose resistors.
    If you need more direct assistance on this Zhou you may better try to call us, by text messaging is limited and this requires direct guidance. If you decide to call us you can find instructions at www.ni.com/ask hope you move forward in your application as soon as possible.

I cant get the internet working but im usin a usb modem. The webcam can be activated by going to the start menu and right clicking my computer and going to the manage option from here go to the device manager.
    Go to the yellow section and it will say other devices it will say hp webcam now download a youcam driver or whatever and right click on the hp webcam
    and select update driver click on this time only and select download from a spesific location and select the webcam driver it will hopefully work and be removed from the yellow section. now using a webcam veiwer you can use it. Thats all i know so far but i really would like to get my sound working mainly because on xp on this laptop it is pretty powerful for games as i can run crysis at medium settings at an exeptional level but obviously, NO SOUND GRR.....
