Problem with 5.1 sound on Audigy sb0

after a long struggle with the drivers I managed to find one that installed correctly. Still, I have a problem with 5. sound. When I do the speakers test all the speakers work fine but when I play mp3 or video on WMP only front speakers work. I suppose that it is still the driver problem.
I have this driver installed.

Neal702,
Please don't type in all caps, it is considered shouting and rude. I'm sure that wasn't your intention, it's just good netiquette.
Anyhow the iMac will put out 5.1 sound assuming that is what you are trying to do. I recommend you find a cable similar to this:

  • I have a problem with the external sound of my ipod, when I take the headphones the music keeps playing and the ipod recognizes still have a headset connected. how do I get external sound out?

    I have a problem with the external sound of my iPod, when I take the headphones the music keeps playing and the ipod recognizes still have a headset connected. how do I get external sound out?

    - Try insering and removing the headphone plug a dozen times or so.
    - Try cleaning out the headphone jack in the iPod.
    - Resett he iPod. Nothing is lost
    Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Restore from backup
    - Restoe to factory defaults/new iPod
    If yu still have the problem that indicates a hardware problem, likely a bad headphone jack. Yu can make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store to confirm.
    If not underwarranty Apple will only exchange your iPod for a refurbished one for:

    A third-party place like the following is less expensive. Here is one. Google for more.

  • Problem with SB1240 USB sound card

    I'm pulling hair here! I've just bought a SB240. Windows (XP Pro, SP3) detected it and I can select it fine for listening. But when I open Sound and Audio Device Properties and select Sound Recording/Volume, I see the Capture panel with the three inputs, but all the controls are greyed out and immovable. I also use the application "Total Recorder" by High Criteria, in which I can select the SB240 device but the only input line it sees is SPDIF Interface.
    I'm stumped. Can anyone help?
    John?

    &Re: Problem with SB240 USB sound card
    Thank you. I did a complete uninstall, including the device itself (from Device Manager) as well as all drivers and any SB related software. As recommended by Creative, I had previously installed the driver software from the supplied CD and that seems to have been the problem.
    I let Windows re-detect the SB, but? got a "problem ... device may not work correctly.." during the detection, so I was not hopeful (this had not happened the first time I installed the device).
    Nevertheless it now does work fully and is properly configured in "Total Recorder" too.
    So I would suggest not using the supplied drivers and software - at least not in WinXP. But it's not very confidence inspiring.

  • I got my iPhone 4S and I think I have a problem with it. Sound when locking and unlocking is quiet compared with other iPhone 4S. I compared it with others and really is a little quiet. Other people have confirmed it too. Other sounds may be better. No pr

    I got my iPhone 4S and I think I have a problem with it. Sound when locking and unlocking is quiet compared with other iPhone 4S. I compared it with others and really is a little quiet. Other people have confirmed it too. Other sounds may be better. No problem tones, watching videos. This problem or is it something normal?

    I have this problem too, but it is intermittent. Sometimes the lock/unlock volume will drop to barely-audible, even though in settings the volume slider hasn't changed. If I then move the volume slider, it fixes the problem and the lock sounds jump back to normal, but then later on the problem will happen again.

  • A problem with ALL creative sound cards i am hav

    All creative sound cards that i've used, three i think in the past year. SB Li've, SB Audigy 2 ZS, and the Audigy 2 Zs Platinum Pro. Every time i connect speakers or headphones to the jack, i get really REALLY low sound output, also before windows loads or shuts down i hear a "bump" coming from my speakers/headphones.... I have no idea whats going on....
    Specs are:
    p4. 3.0
    DFI Lanparty 875 rev. B
    gig corsair pc4000 dual channel
    2x raptor raid 0
    SB Audigy 2 ZS Platinum Pro
    ATI Radeon x800pro
    Headphones i use are bose acoustic 2 headphones
    Speakers are logitech x-530
    If anyone has had this happen to them before or if anyone has any possible remedies for this I would really appreciate, if this doesnt help im done with creative sound cards =/
    [edit]: forgot to mention this is only for the audio jacks on the sound card itself, on the ZS platinum pro, when i connect to the jack on the hub, the sound is alrightMessage Edited by mrkuku on 06-2-2005 06:36 AM

    figured out my problem, my built in sound card drivers were conflicting with the creative drivers. Thought that if i turned off the built in sound card from bios that i wouldn't need to delete the drivers also. Thanks for any that read this and tried to figure it out. Now its working like a charm.

  • Help with an Older Sound Blaster Audigy Card! Computer freezing on driver upda

    Hey everyone,
    I'm new to these forums and dont know if anyone still has experience with the older cards.
    I've had a Sound Blaster Audigy 2 Platinum for about 6 years now and noticed some popping and sometimes the card began to emit a high pitched whining sound. Thus I decided to install the newest drivers (can't hurt can it's)
    However, when I finished installing the drivers, my system refuses to start. Sometimes it's at the Windows login screen, sometimes right after.
    I finally got something that may be the reason why my system is hanging. I have a message that pops up that says:
    Box Name: ReadReg Application :Version 6.0..36
    Message: Completing installation of your audio card
    ??? Please wait.
    My computer is now frozen.
    Here are my system specs if it helps
    P4 2.66Ghz
    ASUS P4S800D-X
    PNY 6800GT
    SB Audigy 2 Platinum
    GB Corsair XMS3200C2PT (2x52MB)
    Windows XP Pro
    DVD+/-RW DL
    DVD ROM
    After I did a system restore, the sound driver was missing. Said Creative Audigy in the driver section with the yellow exclamation mark. I installed the new drivers again with the same problem.
    Any help is welcome!? Thank you for your time and consideration.

    I would:
    Pull the sound card.
    Start up.Enter the BIOS setup utility to make sure your MB recognizes the change.
    Save the BIOS
    Start again.
    If Windows works.
    Run a thorough virus scan (I hope you're running some reputable anti-virus software!!!)
    Install Service Pack 3.
    Re-install the sound card..
    I'll bet Windows finds a driver for it that works. If not, run Windows update manual and see if there's a driver update for the card.
    If none of the above helps, well... I confess, I reinstall Windows at the drop of a hat and that usually solves all problems. Do it on a Sunday so you can watch football while Windows churns.
    Power Quest Dri've image has saved me from the Windows install horror on many occasions. I think Symantec has pulled the program but there must be something similar out there. Buy it. And in the future, remember, if it ain't broke, don't fix it!
    Good luck.

  • Problem with built in Sound

    I have this simple PE NEO-2 motherboard .. and i use the built in sound of the board... the problem i m having is that the sound suddenly disappears during the game.. or other music application... sometime it disappear after 2 min or some time after couple of hours...
    So is my board faulty... or problem with drivers or bios update.??
    Thanks

    k.
    well basiclly, when i had the same sound card on my 865PE Neo 2, it had the same problems. take battlefield Vietnam for example, the jet sounds would disappear after a while and come bak very very choppy, as did the weapon sounds. they actually reversed the sound. playing prom back to front.
    The problem is the card it self. MSI take no pride what so ever in their sound.
    the only way to fix, is either lower sample rate, which resluts in cracklier sound, updating drivers, which sometimes dont work, or just simply upgrading your sound card.
    because of this problem i went out and baught my self a Creative Sound Blaster Audigy2 ZS Platinum pro.
    frankly.
    it i WELL worth the money.
    if you want a budget card but still verry good, look for the Sound Blaster Live range. verry verry good.
    Hope i am of some service to you all

  • I am having problem with speaker the sound is not coming properly from it also the right side hinges

    Thanks & Regards

    First, try to reset the phone by holding the sleep and home button for about 10sec, until the Apple logo comes back again. You will not lose data by resetting.
    If this does not help, set it up as new device, explained here:
    How to erase your iOS device and then set it up as a new device or restore it from backups
    If still no luck, get it checked by visiting an Authorized Apple Service Provider or contact Apple Support to get it serviced:

  • Problems with "Line-In sounds" after rebooting..

    Hi,
     I have some problems with my TV card. When I press reset button or switch on my PC and wait, about 3-5 sec. ahead of enter to Windows XP SP1, I can hear PFFFFFFFFFF.... from my speakers. I hear it until I activate MSI radio or MSIPVS (programs using LINE IN input).....then is "Line IN sound" is OK. If I close all MSI applications..... Line IN is Silent - That's right!!
    Please help me, what can I do ....
    I tried old and newest drivers....but still PFFFFFF ....agrrrrhhh !!!!
    I have 2 sound cards (and 1 on board) and problem is still identical.

    The problem is related to the Crossbar driver
    There was a solution posted befrore in this forum and that was to change the crossbar driver from MSI with one of from a leadtec xp2000

  • Problems with startup / no sound / webvideos

    Hello everyone.
    Since I last updated my iMac two days ago 02/18/09 (accepting program updates, and also a security update from apple) my computer is running differently. The startup takes forever (wheel screen, blue screen) and and it seems that the computer doesn't locate the sound board, answering at the "system preferences that there is no output / input devices found (not even built-in speakers) .
    So if anyone can help me solve this I would be very thankful. Since there is a lot of small problems, I will separate them here:
    1. Long startup
    2. No sound
    3. Internet videos not functioning
    4. Scrollball at the mouse seems broken
    Thanks!

    Luis,
    Welcome to Apple Discussions.
    I would recommend that you download the [Mac OS X 10.5.6 Combo Update|http://support.apple.com/downloads/MacOS_X_10_5_6_ComboUpdate] and install that. Some folks (myself included) who have had problems with the Software Update have been able to get a stable system via installing the Combo. It is a large file (668Mb) but in my view worth downloading and installing.

  • Problems with added music sound tracks

    Please Help. My music sound files added to iMovie 09 are stuck on full volume and when I close and re-open my project the sound has slightly shifted and is out of sync with the video. The project is over 1 hour long with many varied added sound effects.
    I would really appreciate any help
    Thanks

    If you go to page 8 of this forum, you'll see that over 1,200 of us have experienced basic audio problems with iMovie 09. I guess you should pick and choose your solution from those who responded on that post...(?)

  • Why my N900 has a problem with beeps/alert sounds!...

    I have a weird problem with my N900 and the alert sounds.
    They seem to stutter or not sound smoothly as if something is slowing them.
    It happens on message alerts, email, sms and camera shutter etc.
    Difficult to describe. I am not technical but it almost seems like it can't keep up maybe the CPU or memory???
    Had the problem before and after PR1.2..
    Also noticed stutter/pausing on media player as per this clip below from another user.
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IKd7Gko2dak
    Searched discussion and can't see a topic but have read someone else mentioning something similar once.

    You may have to see about exchanging that MacBook/Pro for another before time runs out, and hope the replacement does not have this issue; and if you have access to an Apple Store with Genius, you may be able to get an appointment to discuss this issue and the exchange prospect, if it comes to that before 14 days from purchase date go by.
    I've looked a little and seen a few different problems with some of the hardware you have, but not the same issue with the green color, etc. Do you have a different external display device to see if the color is due to the internal graphics hardware in the MacBookPro retina?
    Hopefully you can get an answer in this matter.
    Good luck & happy computing!

  • Problem with 5.1 sound, only getting stereo [Geforce GT 610]

    Hi, this is going to be a bit long, but bear with me.
    HARDWARE
    HTPC:
    - Corsair VX 450W, PSU
    - Gigabyte GA-EG45M-DS2H, motherboard
    - Intel Core 2 Duo E8400, CPU
    - Kingston HyperX DDR2-800 4 GB (2×2048), RAM
    & - Asus Geforce GT 610 (installed today)
    SOUND SYSTEM:
    - Samsung HT-TXQ120
    HISTORY
    I have an old HTPC build I want to use again (been in storage for a year while living away). It was previously running Ubuntu, and was connected to my (also old) Samsung HT-TXQ120. The audio connected to the HT-TXQ120 via SP/DIFF and HDMI directly to my HDTV. Back when I first configured this the intel drivers were buggy with both audio and video on HDMI at the same time therefor the SP/DIFF. This setup worked fine for years.
    Fast forward to today, and I want to get the HDMI audio/video working.
    - The intel g45 sort of works, but the audio drops a few seconds every 2 minutes. I have not managed to get this working.
    - I was a bit fed up, so I researched for recommended video/audio card for HTPC and saw that Asus Geforce GT 610 was recommended and cheap. I bought that, and installed it. Uninstalled all intel drivers, and installed nvidia ones. So far so good.
    PROBLEM
    The new card will not output 5.1 sound to my HT-TXQ120. 5.1 surround output shows up in the sound preferences, but when I test it I only get sound on my front left and front right channel. The rest is silent. I have tried with speakertest, test in audio settings, VLC, mplayer, XBMC and Plex.
    Any help to get for this issue? Is the only solution to go back to using HDMI for video only, and sound through SP/DIFF?

    Two things to check:
    1) Open the "Sounds and Audio Devices" control panel. On the Volume tab, click the "Advanced" button. Is the speaker setup "5.1.."?
    2) Open the quicktime control panel. On the "Audio" tab, check that the Channels is 5.1.
    If you changed either of the above settings, restart the application you're testing with and try again.
    If that doesn't work, try checking the "safe mode (waveout only)" box in the Quicktime control panel (audio tab). Again, restart the application and try again.
    Hope that helps,
    Rob
