PROBLEMS Foxconn G965 chipset WITH Creative X-Fi Xtreme Gamer Fatal

Hello every body.
I have found a driver problem of X-Fi Xtreme Gamer Fatalty Professional Series and the motherboard Foxconn G9657MA-8KS2H.
With the install process you dont have problem, and with music... but when you go to play the EAX effects doesnt work properly (metalic noise), at least it fault down.
With other motherboards there is no problem. Of course I have tried everything, (drivers, thanche the pci slot, another games... GRAW, Battlefield 242, Call of duty etc... It doesnt work.
Then I tried with my old Creative Audigy 2 ZS Platinum Pro, and the same problem with old drivers. I download this november drivers and then it works fine.
The sound is similer (less voices but similar, good sound), but I havent got the night mode sound level that let me play during the night without making noise (gun, explosions etc sound very loud).
Some one knows where can I get a modified driver that runs with chipset G965?

I had to switch from game mode to entertainment mode using the Creative Console Launder software applet. Once I made the change all fi've speakers are working, I would prefer that they all work in game mode but for now until I can find a better solution this will have too work for now. I hope this helps for you.

  • Error installing Creative X-FI Xtreme Gamer...

    Wonder if you guys can help. i have had this problem before and the only way I could fix it was rebuilding my OS. I am running Windows 7 32-bit and I have uninstalled my Creative X-FI Xtreme Gamer to clear up some audio issues and update to a new driver. i uninstalled the old one my device manager, uninstalled all the associated applications then booted into safe mode and ran Driver Cleaner, I then ran CCleaner to clear any remaining registry entries. I went to the official site and downloaded the driver exactly as I did after the fresh OS install and then rebooted windows. upon booting back in I get the driver box which searches for dri'ves in the bottom task bar but it fails with the error:
    Multimedia Audio Controller - No Driver Found.
    I went into Device Manager to find an exclamation mark on the Multimedia Audio Controller so I tried to update the driver through there by browsing to my temp directory and selecting the correct driver.
    This then throws up the error details:
    Windows encountered the problem installing the driver
    Creative X-FI Audio Processor (WDM)
    There is no driver selected for the device information set or element.
    I have tried searching again, re-seating the card, clearing CMOS etc etc and the Creative website finds the card installed through autoupdate and brings up a list of the Driver and Programs to install but this error happens everytime. I had this problem a few months back and ended up re-installing Windows to fix it but I just can't be bothered with that anymore.
    Does anyone know a way to fix this error?
    Cheers.

    I tried installing the daniel_k drivers that worked before but now no matter what i do i keep getting this ****ing error(w8.1)

  • Help Needed With Creative X-Fi Xtreme Audio 7.1 Soundcard -

    Hi All,
    I need some help I have just installed the Creative X-Fi Xtreme Audio 7. Soundcard - OEM from overclockers uk - http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=SC-049-CL
    My problem is this my machine is constantly sounding the 'Device Connected' and 'Device Disconnedted' Windows Sound, But there are no new devices my system was working perfectly fine until after installing the card.
    My Mobo Is Abit AI7 with BIOS 9, Onboard sound disabled, VGA BIOS Cachable dis abled and there is not over clocking running.
    I have removed my Dual DVB-T Tunner replaced it with a different one, moved the 2 PCI card around different slots and still that bloomin sound.
    Its got to the point now I have turned my speakers OFF
    Anyone got an answer?
    TIA
    Andy

    You know it helps to post solutions if it's working fine for you. Moreover, unless you have the same hardware as someone else what works for you won't necessarily work for them.
    That said, @ the OP have you tried setting the mic as default under the Sound settings? (Type Sound in the search bar and click on the "Sound" entry to find it.)
    Also this may help
    [Edit I wish these solutions were stickied or in an FAQ somewhere, activating/problems with the mic seem to come up quite a lot. Oh and I dunno if this will help too but when I had garbled mic issues on my X-Fi a complete uninstall and clean down with Driver cleaner seemed to fix it.]

  • Manual remove of Lightroom causing problems for re-install with Creative Cloud

    Ok. I ran the uninstall of Lightroom 5 from the Control Panel on Windows 7 x64. Re-install from Creative Cloud failed. I then removed all registry entries for "Lightroom", deleted all references on hard drives. I deleted the OPM.db file and relaunched Creative Cloud and I still receive the following error (the same error at every step). Normally I would just ask for the msi and try reinstalling that, but I deleted it.
    Exit Code: 7
    Please see specific errors below for troubleshooting. For example,  ERROR:

    How do I proceed to reinstall Lightroom 5 from Creative Cloud?
    Thanks for your assit.

    Thanks Jeff this worked like a charm for me. Anyone else looking, I had accidentally deleted a Lightroom file and I could not run, install, repair or uninstall the program and when I tried to re-install from CC it hung at 42% and gave an error code 7. I tried removing all Lightroom folder from everywhere with no effect. Running the MS Fixit utility allowed me to remove the Lightroom app and then I could re-install with no problems.
    Thanks again

  • Problems Burning Audio CD with Creative Mediasourc

    I keep getting the same error message every time I try to burn an audio CD:
    CD burner: "There is not enough disc space to perform this operation"
    I have over 2.5 GB of space on C:\dri've. Even if I try to burn just one track I get the same error message. I've checked the CD and it is blank.
    Has anyone else had this message? How can I get MediaSource to burn CDs?
    Thanks

    Problem Solved! I'd accidentally tried using a blank DVD rather than CD. I think the error message would have been more helpful if it had said something like "Incompatible Media - Please insert a blank CD".

  • Having trouble with my Xtreme Gamer sound card

    I have an Alienware computer that came with the card and its software pre-installed. It has worked fine until today when BF2 would no longer recognize the card. When I uninstalled the software to reinstall it, it said I didn't have any devices. What should I do? I want to refrain from opening the case. Thanks!

    Ya know, it is funny I ran across this thread. I am having the exact same problem with my Alienware and am currently working at trying to resolve it. So far I tried to force the drivers and it did not seem to like that so much. Older patch I found?didn't work. I think my next step is to uninstall everything creative and crack the case open and try removing the card. Then try a different slot if able or boot the comp a couple times without it, and then install it back in the?same slot. No IRQ?problems I checked that. I read somewhere that sometimes something in the bios can bug out and it needs to be re-checked in. Not sure of the exact terms of it atm, but I hope you get the idea. A quick fix that I did find that should work for you as well is to make sure?all?Creative?drivers are cleaned out and then use windows update to search for optional downloads. It finds a driver for the X-Fi that actually works.
    Below is a copy/paste of a request for help?I placed on the Alienware boards just to give you an idea of where I am at. /startcopy?<span class="normalTextSmall">Hello,
    I am at my wits end here. So figured I would come here and ask for some input. Basicly the problem I am having is I have poping/crackling sounds coming from my speakers while playing FSX. What is wierd is it only happens in certain missions and/or planes. It also sounded way messed up at the desktop and during sound tests but I was able to fix that by changing the freq to 24bit lowest hrtz setting studio quality.
    I have been doing a ton of research into this problem and it would seem if I updated my drivers there is a good chance there is a fix in there for me.. I would hope so as I have tried everything under the sun. Known knowledge and reading every forum I could find.
    The big problem I can't seem to over come is that no matter which drivers I use they tell me I am unable to use them because they do not see a Creative X-Fi on my machine. The newest Creative drivers tell me this. Even the Creative drivers that came with my AW backup disk act the same way. The only driver that I could get to work is the one that windows update supplies when the driver is fully uninstalled. What is even funnier is that when I use my AW Respawn disk that is also installs the same exact drivers that Windows Update installs for that card. Which are ancient. Antique really.
    So why would no new Creative drivers want to work? No AW supplied backup drivers want to work? No downloaded X-Fi drivers downloaded from AW site want to work. And why would AW give me a driver for backup when even they themselves obviously did not get that one to work because the respawn disk uses the same old drivers windows update supplies when no drivers are installed?
    I have tried Winzip to unpack the the .exe file and update wizard says that I have the best drivers already installed. Even though these ones just came out. I have even tried to force the drivers in with the have disk option and that just resulted in an unbootable pc thanks to the blue screen of death right after bios flash screen.
    So, how do I get any Creative X-Fi Xtreme Gamer drivers to install. I have to be able to update them, in hopes that they will fix my crackling/static problem..
    Just got the machine the other day so I haven't tried installing other games. And I do realize that AW is not respossible for FSX issues. But I really do find it odd that even my backup drivers won't work, and they were not even used anyways during the build process.. I would have hoped this issue would have been fixed in house then. So it has me really concerned.
    What is my next step? Bios update?(this computer was built around Nov st 07.), Move card around maybe?(shouldn't this have been done before shipping?).. oh my head hurts from this one. I have never had to fold and give up and come to a forum for help. I am truly stumped.

  • Creative webcam dell studio 17 problems with creative zen

    hi there, ive got a dell studio 17 with a built in webcam.
    When i try to install the drivers for the creative zen, and put the disk in, a message comes up saying 'we could not find the driver software for your device'
    then windows trys to solve the problem and comes up with a message saying 'this problem was caused by a compatibility issue between this version of windows and yor webcam which was made by creative' 'go online to download and install the update for your webcam'
    however i try the website they gave me, which is the creative support page, but i cant find a built in webcam for the dell studio 17
    i was just wondering whether the answer is right in front of my eyes, or if anyone else had this problem

    Hello MichelleStudio!
    The only thing that comes to mind to help you out here is to try to visit Dell's support website and update your hardware drivers and/or firmware.  To get to your model's specific downloads click on "Drivers & Downloads" and choose the Service Tag option.  It asks you for your Service Tag which is on the bottom of your laptop.  Then it will bring you to a list of available downloads.
    Make sure the operating system is set to Windows Vista 64-bit, as this is what your laptop came with.  The important ones to update are BIOS and Chipset.  But since I don't know specifically what is causing your problem, it's kind of a guessing game.
    This is assuming you can get your laptop to boot up long enough to perform these updates.  You said that the error said something about a driver, so hopefully updating your hardware drivers and firmware help.
    Hope this helps, thank you for posting!

  • Any problems with K8N neo4-FI and Creative X-FI Xtreme Music ???

    Hi. Anyone having problems with the mentioned combination. (I've heard about incompatibility issue with creative and nforce4 chipsets) and since I have the mentioned board I would like to avoid future problems and maybe go with Audigy 4 instead. Thanks in advance.

    Here's MSIs technical support answer:
    Sometimes before, there was incompatibility issues between the X-FI Xtreme card and motherboards based on nforce 4 chipset. And then, Creative official has stated it existed on almost noforce4 motherboard, not only some or one manufacturer, so user met this issue should contact Creative.
    But from Creative's official statement as you find, they thought it caused by nforce4 chip, but our motherboard chipset is from NVIDIA. If NVIDIA had no plan to change the chipset architecture, we can't solve this issue. So we suggest you'd better not use this audio card if you use this MB.
    Best wishes,
    MSI Technical Support
    Now when I think about it, I have been using SB live 5.1 for years now and I have changed several platforms (VIA KT 400, Nforce2 (Soltek, Epox), Nforce 3 (soltek) and finaly Nforce 4 and have noticed strange behaviour with many of them in combination with mentioned card (I had to remove additional raid controller card because of skipping video and audio during video capturing on Nforce 2 platform). Now with SB live 5.1 removed, on MSI neo 4-FI it seems that occasional freezing of video on my DVB-T Pinnacle card has gone. I was convinced that the reason was weak reception (although my neighbour from just a few blocks away had excellent picture), but now I am not so shure. I don't know if I want to risk the possibility of repeating all those problems again even if it' "The most powerful audio processor in the world".

  • Problems with Creative Cloud storage (again!)

    I am having problems when uploading files to Creative Cloud storage. Some of the files go - some don't, and are flagged 'Unable to Sync'. I have had this problem for some time and have stopped using CC sync, but I thought I would give it another go the other day, and still no luck. The files that are reported as being a problem seem fine - no issue with the names, or anything that I can see.
    I spent almost an hour on the phone to technical support about this issue about a week ago and the guys I was speaking to (I kept being pushed on to someone else) didn't seem to have any idea. They just kept going through all my security questions and then put me on hold whilst they asked someone more knowledgeable. They would then come back on and pass me to someone else (more security questions) until eventually the last guy I spoke to said he didn't know the answer and an Adobe representative would contact me in 24 to 48 hours. Not a very impressive turn around for customer support - even less so since it is now a week later and still no call. Let's face it. I'm not going to get a response from Adobe.
    As a test, I tried uploading the same files to DropBox. Not very technical perhaps, but I just reasoned that if there were problems with one system, they should show up on the other. Imagine. They uploaded to DropBox no problem.
    So the technical fix is forget Creative Cloud storage and use DropBox. Okay, you have to pay for a reasonable amount of storage, but if you depend on your files for your business, it's worth it.
    I'm worried though. I'm a big fan of Adobe, and have been using their products for years but am getting concerned that, should I have any problem with any of their CC products their support will be minimal (if I'm lucky) or non-existant (as seems more likely).
    As a little extra comment, I have emptied out my CC Storage files (and the archived files) and yet the CC system still says I have 528MB stored - although there is nothing there. I had this once before and the Adobe technical guy reset the system - but it's back!
    HOLD THE FRONT PAGE! I just opened my CC storage in a browser and tried to drag and drop the troublesome files directly. And it worked! So maybe the problem is with the CC app. (I have tried uninstalling and re-installing it numerous times). So dragging and dropping is a fix, but not very practical since you cannot drag and drop folders, so you have to create all the folders in the browser version and then drag the files as required.
    Anyone got any ideas?

    Woah - Ok so sometimes it's the simplest answer we overlook -- HOW TO MOVE YOUR FILES FROM COMPUTER TO ADOBE CLOUD -- EASILY
    (for windows users)
    1 - Start menu
    2 - Go to Computer - OS ( C:)  - Users  - "Your Name"
    3 - You should see here - the folders you need - Creative Cloud Files - and also - My Docs, My Pics, etc -- The app will not allow this task - windows will
    4 - Right click on the source folder - (Pics, docs)
    5 - Select copy
    6 - Right click on Creative Cloud Files
    7 - Select Paste
    This will transfer all files in that library to the Adobe Cloud folder and allow them to be synced to the cloud
    Hopefully this will save some folks the Head - desks it caused me.
