Problem updating drivers for soundblaster live value CT4

Hi all, I wonder if anyone can help me, i have a creative soundblaster li've value sound card model no. CT4780 it's about 4yrs old and i am trying to update the driver as the last one to go on it was in 2002. I have been trolling the creative website and downloaded the automatic update driver search but when it finishes it says i have the most current update for my card. I have had a look at the Li'veDrvUni-pack and being a bit of a novice to driver installing i was wondering if that one would be okay for me to download and install. Would appreciate any help.....

Hi Shrek
I just listed my first post. I bought a dell Dimension XPS T500 in 999. It used a CT4780 that fed a good Altec Lansing speaker system. When I built my present budget PC I used the old CT4780 card. Because I?am using XP Pro I loaded Li'veDri'veUni-Pack.exe driver (released 280203). This worked fine.
But I do not have the SPDIF working as yet. My MSI? MS-6533XG?Motherboard does have?header pins for SPDIF but?so far I haven't used them. I am looking for drivers to use if I can get the SPDIF connected.
Do you have any info?on my needs?
Thanks

Updating Drivers for video card?

I have a G5 Quad with an Nvidia Geforce 7800 GT video card (installed by Apple at the time of purchase). I wanted to see if there were any new/updated drivers for my card, but when I go to Nvidia's website the card is not listed, nor are any Mac drivers that I can see. I checked Apple's site, CNET Downloads, and Google, but I'm coming up with nothing.
How are the drivers for video cards updated? Are the drivers included in various OS updates? Am I just looking in the wrong places?
Thanks.

Thanks, maclover. And thanks for the warm welcome
My problem is specific to a piece of software... I'm using Lightwave, and recently added FPrime to Lightwave's functionality. FPrime is a third party plugin, and is widely used in the Lightwave community.
The problem is that if I open FPrime before OpenGL renders the objects in a scene on screen FPrime crashes (hard)... it's like a kernel panic and my only option is to shut down and reboot. However, if I let OpenGL render the objects first then FPrime opens fine.
I'm an active member of the Lightwave community, and I've been in contact with the maker of FPrime regarding this issue. My question about drivers stems from the fact that usually if something like this occurs then it may be related to the need to update card drivers.
Thanks agian.

XP Drivers for Soundblaster 5.1 VX

Help! I've lost my driver CD for my Soundblaster 5. VX pci card, and I need to reinstall. Can't find the XP version of the driver anywhere online - creative only supply the updated Vista / W7 version.
Can anybody help me - if you have one of these cards with a driver CD, could you send me the installer, please?
Thanks!
Andrew

&Re: XP Drivers for Soundblaster 5. VXHello,
I find if COMPLETELY BOGUS of this lousy company to NOT put XP drivers onto their website. I just bought this card TODAY, installed it and now I've spent the better of 5 hours trying to find a driver. The company that sold me the card (Alza.cz) did not give me a CD. Anyhow... how was I to know that there would need to be a CD. I have the notion of taking it back an asking for a return of my money. This is ridiculous.... selling things that are not supported nor having the correct components.

Problems finding drivers for late 2008 MBP Windows xp 64

Hi,
I'm having problems installing drivers for Windows xp 64 bit pro. The main problem is that i have lost the leopard install disc that came with the mac. As far as i know the drivers located on the leopard install disc 1 are compatible with Win xp 64?
Does anybody know where i can get a complete list of all the correct drivers to download? I've been doing trial and error driver installation for about 1 week now and getting really upset that i have not been able to resolve this issue.
Any help greatly appreciated,
Thanks in advance,
Fredrik Christensen

Hi Stefan,
Thanks for replying.
Perhaps i am thinking of Windows Vista 64 then? I'm pretty sure that i saw a post somewhere which said that Apple released 64 bit drivers with the latest leopard install disc for the new MBP.

Hi Fred,
yes, Vista 64-bit is supported on some MAcs. See here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1846
Also Applee sems to have released newer versions of the retail Leopard Installation discs, which include Vista 64-bit drivers http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1999

Update drivers for NVIDIA GeForce GT 330M

Need the updated drivers for NVIDIA® GeForce® GT 330M that comes with my Vaio Z VPCZ128GX , the drivers in eSupport are from 2010, and nVidia software does not detect the 330M card
VPCZ125GX

I've updated my VPCZ1 to 340.43 drivers but it still won't accept the transition to Windows 10, seems like they just want to find any excuse to back out of their promise of a free upgrade for windows 7 users. For anyone who is editing .inf files and still not able to get it to work, you need to update your intel drivers first. The process is a bit awkward, I tried to update the Geforce with a few pre-modded drivers, using the device manager. It would always freeze during installation or ask to reboot and start in 800x600 resolution. I also tried the latest intel drivers but was unable to update them at the time, so I gave up on the idea for a while. Later, I ran into trouble running GTAV, the game would start fine but suddenly crash to desktop while loading. I remembered how the latest driver broke the intel driver, so I rebooted with the laptop in "stamina", installed the latest compatible onboard graphics driver and rebooted in "speed" mode, which incapacitated the 2010 nvidia driver so I had a new "unknown device" under "display adapters" in the device manager. I pointed it to the 340.43 drivers (latest driver I could find for 330m which still uses inf files) which I modified earlier and success, GTAV now runs. Editing inf files is surprisingly simple, just find mention of "330m" in one of the inf files (which are lists of subsys numbers) and replace the subsys number with the one from your card in device manager when using the 2010 drivers. (there are alraedy a lot of them in the inf, I guess it's true that no two 330m are the same) I've always left it on "speed", ever since it booted with the new drivers, The GPU is easily underclockable using Precision X for more battery life. http://i59.tinypic.com/swd3lx.jpg Only side effect I know so far is that the screen rotation doesn't work, although I never tried it with the old driver combo.

I just purchased a Canon MG5220. I have installed all of the updated drivers for 10.7.3. The scanner is working wirelessly, but I can't add my printer. Any ideas?

With most multi-function devices, you need to run the printer manufacturer's setup/configuring program first. That will either "Add" the printer directly, or make it discoverable in the "Add-a-Printer" window. Look around, you probably downloaded that program when you downloaded the Driver.

Soundblaster live value cannot install at

Hi
I have recently bought a new PC that has onboard sound, however i want a full duplex soundcard for chatting over the net.
I had a soundblaster li've value in my old pc which i thought would do the trick so installed it but i cannot get any sound at all from it...the old soundcard is from 2000 but worked ok in my old pc
This is what i have done
. Changed the BIOS from EDB to PCI bus for audio
2. Disabled AC 97 sound in Bios(which i presume is to disable the audio onboard)
3. Set IRQ 5 to legacy as per the common problems on this site
4. Installed the soundblaster unidrv pack downloaded from this site.
5. Installed the creative play center then upgrade to 3
With the drivers installed the hardware is recognised and even diagnostics says all components are available but i get zero sound, not even the crackle when you plug/unplus the speaker jacks at any point. If i try to run the speaker test it causes the pc to freeze, which i have tried several times, both before and after a cleansweep installation sequentially . The my system.hardware says i have the soundblaster components correctly installed and they are working fine, just no sound.As soon as i take it out and switch back to my onboard sound i have no problems.
i have also noticed i get a error when i try to view the properties on the lmedia control devices option...the program shuts down rather than freezes which has only happened since i tried using the soundblaster as far as i remember, and then the whole device manager crashes
My system is a Athlong 64 bit 3400+ on a Winfast K8S motherboard
If this card is not compatible then what sound card would work with no problems (ie a more modern one)
I have read all the help on this site on these messages but nothing seems to work...is their something obvious i am missing?

Thank you for your suggestion. Unfortunately, Dell doesn't have any updates for me. I have a Dimension XPS B series computer and they don't offer any updates for SoundBlaster Li've! cards on their site. I just wish I could run the driver update file from the SoundBlaster website (DrvUniPac). It begins extracting but then says there is no SoundBlaster Product on my system, and then closes. As I mentioned before I tried the Auto Update from the SoundBlaster website and it detects the SoundBlaster Li've! Value card on my system and says that it is up to date. Why doesn't the driver update recognize my sound card?

[GeForceFX] Problem updating drivers and playback probs

I have an NVidia FX5200 personal cinema and have constantly had problems udating drivers (crashes or b&w display) - last time I tried the system crashed and no amount of fiddling would allow me to go back so I had to re-install windows and ended up with new install of XP Pro SP2 on reformatted partition - this installed its own FX5200 MSoft driver (something like 5.6) but didn't install any software or capture drivers so I re-installed the drivers from the disk - this ioverwrote with 4.n version drivers. When I tried to update to the latest drivers using MSI live update my pc crashed on start as before with a blue screen message OX0000007E and I was unable to sort this out so ended up re-installing windows AGAIN and starting from scratch once more.
This time I thought I had it sorted and gradually updated the drivers dowloading and updating each of the 7 available and this time each one seemed stable... until I reached the latest 7772 when I got the same blue screen message - fortunately this time I was able to roll back to 6681, which unless 77 is essential, I'm jappy to stick with.
However I am having problems playing avis and mpeg files direct from my hard disk - they both stop briefly, sound stutters or they jerk when playing although they play fine if I burn them to cd and play from the dvd drive.
Any ideas about why I am not able to upgrade drivers successfully and any ideas about why I'm getting playback probs? All help appreciated.
Thanks

No Support for SoundBlaster Live! Platinum

I own a SoundBlaster Li've! Platinum 5. and recently discovered that it is the only piece of hardware not supported by Creative on Windows Vista (No Intended Development).
It's Top product has no intended development for Vista. However, even the much cheaper SoundBlaster Surrond 5. has intended development. Am I missing something here?
I replaced my old Windows XP Pro with the newer Windows Vista. All the hardware components of my PC have available for download, drivers and or software for Windows Vista, All but one, the most expensi've component, my much loved SoundBlaster Li've! Platinum 5..
I am not complaining about the quality of the product, as I like to reinforce is outstanding. I am a music lover, which is the reason why I bought the SoundBlaster Li've! Platinum 5.. With the Li've! interface, I can connect all my analog equipment (VHS, Tape deck and Turntable) as well as use the remote control to control the PC. I changed the batteries of the remote last month, for the first time since I bought the PC. Impressi've, as most makers just use cheaper batteries which only last a month or so.
My PC is only 3 years old. A P4 3Ghz with dual channel ram is still a fast machine.
The Radeon 9600 graphics card is supported, The Leadtek Digital tv tuner is supported, Even the cheaper onboard sound (Realtek 7.), which I never use, is supported.
Since this SoundBlaster Li've! Platinum 5. was the most expensi've of all SoundBlaster models, it does not seem right that Creative only supports the cheaper, everyday models.
It does send the wrong message to consumers. I tells the consumer not to buy Creative's expensi've models and instead buy the cheaper models. Am I the only customer with this problem?
Every single owner of this great model won't be able to update their machines to Windows Vista. Please Support this great model, Creative's own Rolls-Royce.

I did not use the files available for download from this site. The original disks that came with my boards contained software for Windows 2000.When I upgraded to Windows XP, I rang the local?office of Creative and arranged to have the Creative?software for Windows XP?deli'vered by mail. I received a disc with all drivers for both boards and the remote control. It has the only way that I got it going on XP. The irony of buying expensi've, good quality boards is that the hardware outli'ves the operating system that it was built for originally. And to reward customer loyality, the hardware makers, stop supporting their own?flagship models in the hope that we will eventually buy their latest, more expensi've products, which in most cases is just a marketing exercise?at re-naming old?products, while increasing the prices of product lines which have poor customer demand. How many?Audigy 7. models have they been so far?99.5% of customers can not tell a SoundBlaster Li've Platinum 5. from an Audigy 7., based solely on hearing alone, since?both cards?have such similiar real world performances.

Need updated drivers for OJ Pro 8600 Plus Win 8.1 64 bit

My 8600 constantly loses it's connection to network and needs to be shut off and restarted to correct. I noticed my drivers are out of date, but when I try to download updated drivers, I am prompted for a password. My Forum password doesn't work, or the one I wrote down on origuibnal installation.

Hi,
Please download directly the following files (dated Aug-17-2014) and install to your computer, much faster this way and no need to enter password:

Updated drivers for intell graphics 4000

I am trying to get OEM (HP) updated graphics drivers for the Intel graphics 4000. Paid money to play a game on my laptop,and had no problem until they came out with a new updated version. Now the game crashes when it gets to checking graphics settings? The games tech support people said I need the new Intel graphics driver. when I try to update the driver from Intel, it tells me that i have an OEM driver and to check with the manufacture (HP) for an updated driver.
HP's latest driver is dated 09/2013 intel's latest driver is dated 01/2015 and there have been 2 updates since 2013. Is HP going to put out an updated intel graphics 4000 driver, Please tell me how to override OEM and update from Intel??

Sorry mate, your gonna have to downgrade your driver in order to get the game running. I too have an Intel HD 4000 however mine is not OEM meaning i can upgrade with intel. Trust me I have overriden this in the past and your display driver WILL CRASH if you attempt it because it can only run HP's modded version. Just run the installer for the old version of HP's driver and run the game afterwards. P.S Sorry, HP have updated my 3000 driver (rare move by HP).

How to update drivers for Lenovo IdeaCentre C560?

Hi all,
I have PC Lenovo IdeaCentre C560 with Windows 8.1.
There is installed LSC (Lenovo Solution Centre), which has "System" section and inside it is "Lenovo software update" block, where LSC advices me "Go to Lenovo's website to update the Lenovo software on your PC".
But there are thess problems:
There are 20 drivers for C560 for Windows 8.1 on Lenovo website.
Which of them I have to download and install?
I have tried at my Device Manager to verify for all of my devices to be last update (it was terrible work) and I always got information that my driver is up-to-date.
Somebody have told me that LSC is not SUITABLE for C560 machine.
So I have these questions:
Does anybody have installed LSC on his C560? A does it work fine (so it find and install always new driver) or he only get abstract ionformation Go to Lenovo's website to update the Lenovo software on your PC?
Are there other possibilities to regularly update drivers then LSC?
Thanks.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Dragnote,
maybe it was caused my terrible English, so I will try to explain relevant aspects once again:
1) I bought my Lenovo IdeaCentre C560 (part number: 57322363) on 22th of May this year from "stone" shop, not through internet. The Web site of this shop is www.mironet.cz, but there is not my PC there in actual supply, because the shop stopped to sell this model. But the parameters etc of this model is on Mironet's Web site here:
http://www.mironet.cz/lenovo-ideacentre-c560-23quot-fhd-intel-core-i54570t-36ghz-8gb-1tb-dvdrw-nvidi...
but is is in Czech language.
2) My Windows are in Czech language, so I will translate it for you into English and therefore some informations/messages can be not fully exact. OK?
2) The LSC program was installed on my new PC with MS Windows 8.1 64-bit. I was only wanted to USE it! And why not. I got with PC only very slim User's Book, where was nothing much usable. And nothing about updating system and drivers, nothing about backuping etc. So I started to use SLC, because it was preinstalled there.
3) Problems of detect WHICH driver I have to update and HOW to do it:
3a) I tried three programs for detecting of my not-to-updated drivers: SLC, Detective and Smart Driver Update with these results: SLC only advice me to go to Lenovo website, Detective and Smart Driver Update gave me list of my not-to-update drivers, but the lists were rather different.
3a) The link I provided, http://forums.lenovo.com/t5/forums/replypage/board-id/ideaCentre/message-id/9220, lists 20 drivers and all of them were released in period between 16 Oct 2013 and 01 Dec 2013, so I have used abbreviation "end of last year", but you are right - mostly of them are from 16 Oct 2013.
3b) I TRIED to compare their date of released with drivers installed on my PC, but I have two basic problems:
3b.1) How to identify WHICH driver on my PC corresponds to drivers on Lenovo web site?
The names are NOT the same. For example: on Lenovo Web site is "Realtek Audio Driver V6695 for Microsoft Windows 8.1 (64-bit) - Desktop", released 17 Nov 2013, version: 6.0.1.6695. Then I found on my Device manager "Realtek High Definition Audio". So my question already is: "Is it the corresponding driver or not?". But let us say: it is.
So, now we can continue with next information on my driver : date of release is 15 Nov 2013, version: 6.0.1.7093. So I am not sure if these two drivers (one on Lenovo Web site, second on my PC) are the correct PAIR. There is antagonism between date of release and the version number.
3b.2) How to update, when I already "decided", that my driver is not-to-updated and therefore I need it to update?
I launch my Device manager, then I choice some driver, then I click on "to update driver software" and there display two possibilities: find driver on computer, or find driver on Internet. So I click on "Find driver on Internet". Then I wait about 10 seconds and then I ALWAYS get the SAME information: "The driver of this device is up-to-date"
This "optimistic" message I received for about 30 of my drivers. So there are three possible explanations how to explain it:
1) LSC, Detective and Smart Driver Update lie to me, when they tell me "You have some not-to-update drivers", because in reality all of my drivers ARE up-to-date.
2) I really have some not-to-update driver but because I cannot address correct WHICH driver is not to-up-date, I try wrong driver to update. Wrong, because it IS up-to-date.
3) I identify the correct not up-to-date driver but the choise "find driver on Internet" open finding of this procedure in non-Lenovo Web sites.
And maybe you are right when you write: "Sometimes, on a new system, Lenovo installs drivers that are "newer" than the drivers listed on their site. Don't worry, keep the newer drivers."
I apologize very much,but I am not able directly to use the information from you.
I never updated drivers on my old PC (I had it 12 years!), so I have no experiences what happens when I replace my NEW (up-to-date) driver with some OLD driver installed from Lenovo Web site. I am affraid that my keyboard, mouse, screen etc will stop its function.
When I bought this Lenovo machine, I to myself have told that I will keep my drivers up-to-date, but I do not how.

Is acer going to update drivers for 481pt lap for windows 10?

Please let us know are you going to update acer aspire m5 481pt drivers for windows 10?

I have an Aspire M5-481PT and successfully updated to Windows 10. Prior to upgrading Windows 8.1 to Windows 10, I was running my 481PT as a dual boot with Windows 10 preview. The only device driver I had a problem with after upgrading was my touchpad/trackpad My touchpad did work after after upgrading, however, it was really slow and two finger scrolling didn't work. I found the following Acer computers on their Windows 10 list of upgradable computers that pretty much have the same hardware as the 481pt. Not sure why Acer doesn't show the 481pt as upgradeable, but hey it doesn't matter. I found the Elan driver to work best for my touchpad/trackpad. Acer Aspire E5-573T
Acer Aspire M5-583P Here is Acer's Windows 10 page in case you don't have it: http://us.acer.com/ac/en/US/content/windows10-eligible-models#_ga=1.215109335.1749581080.1438121970 Good luck!!!!

Updating Drivers for Audigy 2

Hi,
I have a Audigy 2ZS Sound card and I havn't updated the drivers/software in well over a year. I know there are a couple of ways of updating such as using the creative Autoupdate feature or just downloading the drivers exe package. I guess my question which is the preferred method of updating drivers and do I need to uninstall any previous drivers or software?
Another Question I do have, is it always best to upgrade the creative sound card drivers due to fixs, or as I'm not having any real problems is it best to leave the drivers alone?
Thanks,
Matt

sni'ves,
Thanks you for your reply.
I have just downloaded the latest driver install package, ran the exe and it uninstalled my previous drivers and install the latest ones.
Once I did that I used the Auto Update Acti'veX program and installed all Essential, Critical and some of the Recommend updates which seems to have improved and even fixed some problems I was having. The downloads seemed to go OK, and removed any old software.
By the way is there a way to remove the MediasourceGo from start-up, apart from using msconfig?
Thanks again,

STOP 0x0000007B Blue Screen Error after updating drivers for my P67A-C45

Hi!
I recently updated the drivers for my mainboard MSI P67A-C45. I did this with the update utility that follows this product. I choose the "update all" function so I'm not really sure what was actually updated but I remember seeing the bios and my realtek network drivers in the list of stuff being updated. Anyway, during (what I think was) the update of my BIOS (a CMD window appeared and started executing tasks) my computer suddenly restarts. I wasn't really paying attention during this process but it seemed like it wasn't finished and that the restart was unintentional.
Now during boot I get a Blue Screen message at the "Starting Windows" logo. The Blue Screen flashes by and my computer restarts instantly. It's a STOP 0x0000007B message which probably has to do with the drivers I just tried to update.
I have Windows 7 64-bit and I have tried the startup repair and the system restore function without any success.
Any ideas?
Can I revert these updates or maybe install the original drivers without formatting my hdd? I have the original CD that came with the board.
Best Regards
Victor

AHCI is a mode setting for the SATA controllers. You will find it in Integrated Peripherals. If you haven't set it to AHCI, it normally defaults to IDE mode. X79 platform being the exception. Yes. Remove LU5 & download & install all driver updates & such manually.
If your UEFI/BIOS did get flashed by LU5, I would recommend to remove the power cord from the PSU, remove the battery for awhile, clear CMOS, reset all the settings, especially check in the OC Section, CPU Features. Check to make sure there are no '0's showing. I don't know what your CPU is, so I don't know what to tell you to set the Core Ratio limit for each core if they are in fact sitting on 0.
