Problems with cirrus logic drivers. bootcamp 3.2. osX 10.6.6. win XP

got the soundproblems with the cirrus logic audio drivers as stated several times in the forum.
latest version of osX and bootcamp. win xp sp3. tried 3 installations...
mic creates the "darth vader" voice. this can be fixed with this hacked driver from the web from 2009. sic!!
soundrecordings destorted. btw. the stereomix in soundrecordings is gone. was stereomix disabled in the driver? there is no hidden features. worked on macbook from 2008 with leopard and realtek hardware.
windows xp seems to be an OEM. can this be a reason?
does the sound work properly on windows 7?

Hey,
I have the same problem (MBP 13", Win 7. Getting green bars, red light in headphone jack but no sound. Ages in fourms, driver installs, system restore - am pretty fried).
I wish there was some solid advice from Apple on this rather that trawling through these forums putting together the pieces of the jigsaw. No downloading the Realtek driver (if you could even get them without paying a subscription to so 'device driver doctor app'), nor the Cirrus drivers from the disc.
This is really frustrating. I want a clear 'how to' from Apple. As an Apple user for years I find them quickly loosing their plug and play shiny image - so Apple, get it together.
Cheers

  • Hello again Just wondering if the problems with Vid(ATI) drivers still

    Hello I haven't been here in a while, I did an Arch Linux install a few months back and it was quite the learning experience for someone like me being a noob . I loved Arch( I was using 64bit) but the only thing that made me leave it was because after several tries I never could get the ATI VId drivers to install properly for my ATI 3870hd video card I could'nt do any serious gaming which suckedso I ended up uninstalling Arch. I did stay with Linux and stayed away from the MS OS's and now I am back and wondering if the installation problem is still there. I am using Ubuntu Hardy right now and although it is a good OS I really prefer Arch but like I said I just want to know if I am going to have the same problems with the Video Drivers as I did the last time. which I could never figure out because I did have duel boot 64bit ARCH and 64bit, Ubuntu but with Ubuntu all I needed to do was  go into the system/administration/hardware drivers and check( turn on) the ATI accelerated hardware drivers I had no problems since.
    I just realised that my single simple question turned into a short story so I will post this and hope that my problem with the Driver installs are solved so I can reinstall Arch with out any huge problems when I want to game

  • Problem with looping logic

    Hello all,
    Ok reposted using code tags, sorry about that.
    I'm trying to write some code to take in a 2D int array, loop through the array to identify where certain blocks of numbers begin and record that location so that I an jump straight to it at a later time. The number blocks go up iteratively from a point from 0 to 9 and are surrounded by nodata values(-9999).
    The problem is that when I print out the numbers they are only being recognised up to 6 (7th number) and when I check the locations against the original text file they dont match. I think it's just a problem with my logic but I'm not sure why.
    The text file is converted to ints and placed in an array from a buffered file reader in a seperate class. I can put this up if needed.
    Any help would be much appreciated.
    Thanks.
    Duncan
    *  Class imports text file which contains a collection of values, either nodata(-9999) or a location
    *  represented by numbers moving away from a point; 0 closest then 1, then 2 etc.
    *  records the first location of each number to avoid having to loop through the whole file each time.
    *  i.e. can later jump straight to the first recorded location of each number.
    *  In current text file there are 10 numbers(0 - 9) but for some reason it stops finding them after
    *  6(seventh no.) and having checked the location values against the original text file these are wrong
    *  by a fair way as well.

    Hi,
    I am working on a hydrograph program in java as well... I am trying to represent rainfall data. Do you think that you could share some of the code that you came up with, so that I don't have to go through the whole process.
    thank you so much,

  • Problem with Windows 7 through Bootcamp.

    WIndows started up fine via a partition through boot camp and the drivers installed fine (except iSight, but meh.)
    HOWEVER, whenever I try to start up any downloaded online game, the keyboard and trackpad stop working except for the brightness and sound keys.
    Is this a problem with the drivers or is it something else completely?

    Doesn't matter what if even any Mac OS they have.
    Sounds like the game and whatever it is expecting.
    Mac OS has zilch to do, only thing about Windows on Mac is Apple Boot Camp 3.2 or 4.x drivers (and lack of 100% support) which are the main problems.
    The one way people shoot their own foot is by making the partition too small. And assuming we are "mind readers" and that you told us all we need to know. Like the game, whether user installed the AMD or Nvidia graphic drivers themselves (essential) along with audio (Cirrus). Apple doesn't do 100% or even make it clear what else is left up to the user.

  • Problems with Bluetooth stack after bootcamp driver installation.

    I have been running Windows Server 2008 in bootcamp without drivers from the Mac OSX installation cd for a few months with everything except soundcard and function keys working - but since I have found that I need sound and the function keys, I decided to install the Bootcamp drivers and all other drivers that my system would recognize and use.
    At this point I should say that ever since I installed Windows Sever 2008, I've been using a mighty mouse wireless on both osx and server 2008, and both have been working perfectly both running natively (in bootcamp or osx) or in virtualization (with vmware fusion on osx).
    After completing said install, I rebooted and found to my horror that my mighty mouse wireless had stopped working. I went into the control panel of server 2008 and found the bluetooth.cpl and proceeded to correctly find the mouse identified as it was setup in osx when I first set it up there. I then tried connecting to it in multiple ways, both by supplying no passphrase, letting it decide it's passphrase or entering one (0000 as some documentations have pointed out). None of these solutions worked, so now I'm stuck with a mouse that works in osx and vmware fusion, and that used to work in server 2008 before I installed Apples provided drivers for their hardware.
    So my question is - have any of you run into this problem on Vista (I'm figuring Vista is closer to server 2008 than XP is, because they share at least some of the same core as far as I know).
    Another thing I've noticed is that I can't make Apple Software Update update Bootcamp to 2.1 - it simply doesn't acknowledge that Bootcamp is installed on Windows, even if I try and force the registering of it with the encluded .exe file in the zip when I download it manually)
    I would really appreciate any sort of help on this problem, as I'm fresh out of ideas as to what I can do about it. The only thing I can think of is that Apple's drivers somehow broke the configuration that was working (in resetting it after reboot), but then the question is: How to make it work again.
    Again: please help, any help is much appreciated.

    Today I installed Vista Ultimate on my new (early 2008) MBP, to find that it killed my Bluetooth on Vista, and also on my OS X partition. Both OS's claim that there is no Bluetooth Hardware attached. It worked after I installed the Drivers, but stopped when I tried to install an Apple BT Keyboard.
    Any assistance would be greatly appreciated. I'll begin searching for an answer.
    I did do a Super Duper Clone, before I installed Vista on the Boot Camp partition, but I'm fearful that it may be a hardware issue.
    Cheers Teky

  • How can i downgrade to bootcamp 3.1? many problems with graphic driver of bootcamp 3.2

    How can i downgrade to bootcamp 3.1? I have many graghic problems with bootcamp 3.2. such as black screen and kernel resetting also fan almost permanent working and high temperature. all of them after installing bootcamp 3.2 on  my windows 7(64).

    I updated my graphic driver and the kernel resetting seems to be solved. but fan working is still unsolved.
    after installing bootcamp 3.2, whenever I open an Internet page with flash clips in there or watch even a low quality movie, fan start working hard. I updated flash player and other plugins but nothing happens.

  • Solved flicker problem with newer fglrx drivers

    This has been annoying me since the move from 8.29 to 8.30: I have an integrated Xpress 200 on my laptop, and newer proprietary drivers caused the screen to flicker. This has caused me to stick with the older drivers, which restricted upgrades to X.org and the kernel. I was misled by some posts on the Internet to believe that this was the result of using custom modelines.
    I have finally solved the problem yesterday. I am posting my findings in case anyone else has been suffering from the same behaviour.
    The newer drivers come with an ACPI script, installed under /etc/acpi. The script is invoked every minute and inspects the current power status (i.e., A/C or battery). It then invokes
    aticonfig --set-powermode=[MODE]
    to adjust the driver to the new settings. Each time this command is executed, it causes the screen to flicker.
    Obviously, there is no need to run the script if the power mode has not changed since the last call. I have therefore modified the script to first check the current driver power mode, and execute the mode command only if a new setting is required.
    I hope this helps someone.

    I need my hand held a bit here...
    this seems to be the problem I'm having, ie the ac/battery event being called too frequently, but have no idea how to edit the script. I'm on an asus w3n, will it help to replace apci with asus-laptop and apcid daemon...or just add those and leave acpi daemon?
    apologies for my numbnut newbie-ness.

  • Continuing problems with Audigy2 Zs Drivers. Help!

    Hi all,
    I have had a recurring problem now that has gone on for far too long and is really killing me. I have the specs for the computer in my signature.
    What happens, is everything works perfectly well until I install my Creative Audigy2 Zs Drivers for my second soundcard. Then when the computer reboots, the pc halts just before desktop to a blank screen for something like 30-45 minutes. The only way I can bootup, is if I remove every USB device from the system. It doesn't matter what USB device is plugged in, the computer just won't boot.
    I have tried everything: updating drivers, changing around sound card PCI slot, changing IRQ's but nothing seems to fix the problem until I uninstall the soundcard drivers, where everything boots up as normal.
    I really don't understand this, and i'm suprised noone else I can see are having problems with this soundcard, and drivers. I have searched the interweb for a solution, and others that are having this problem, but to no avail so far
    Many thanks for any help,
    Dan

    I really don't recognize this problem, but I wonder: what is your first soundcard? Is it an onboard one? Did you try uninstalling those drivers, then install the creative drivers and then reinstall the drivers of the first soundcard? (I asume you want to have two cards installed ..... may I ask why, just curious ...)
    My first sound card is the onboard MSI 5.1 chip. I need two soundcards for flightsim (one for aircraft sound, one for vatsim atc). I have tried installing the creative before installing the onboard card, but the same thing
    Quote
    The second thing I can tell you: Creative often makes crappy drivers. One thing you could try is to start MSCONFIG (Start -> Run), and uncheck the SBDrvDet (or SBDrvDetect) in the Startup tab. That item causes some problems...
    I will try that thanks. Could this be an IRQ problem (i am quite a newbie when it comes to irq's)

  • HP 15-n086sl problems with windows and drivers amd

    Hello to all,
    I have a problem with my HP 15 - n086sl .
    With native Windows 8 did not.
    the problem is the following :
    moving from windows 8 to 8.1 I lose the switch graphics cards.
    I mean : if I click with the mouse on "configure switchable graphics cards " I get out of a window that says " Unable to start Catalyst Control Center. currently there are no other settings to configure with CCC"
    I tried to update the drivers with the ones on the HP site for windows 8.1 , but nothing changes .
    From " Device Manager " I noticed that the drivers you have installed AUTOMATIC moving from windows 8 to 8.1 are the same version as on the hp website .
    [url=http://postimg.org/image/t3xa7aem3/][img]http://s1​7.postimg.org/t3xa7aem3/driv.jpg[/img][/url]
    If I install the drivers from the AMD website I have the following problems :
    the switch returns to work but hibernation no longer works and if the screen of the PC goes into standby by moving the mouse or pressing both buttons it never recovers . I have to turn off the computer by holding down the button.
    I've done several searches for the web, even within the forum but have not found the solution.
    Will you help me ?
    Sorry for my English.

    Sorry for the delay!
    I am Italian and hp does not offer more support than this forum.

  • Has anyone else had problems with nForce ethernet drivers 3.13 and abo

    Hi, I installed the previous version of the nForce unified drivers (2.03) and I have had problems with the latest version of the unified drivers also (2.41). These both have ethernet drivers "3.13 (WHQL) + TOT .NVU"
    They seem to be the ethernet drivers fault. If I install one of the latest versions of the unified drivers, windows does not boot up, it just hangs at windows logo. ?(
    If I remove the ethernet cards drivers using safe Mode, the system will boot up fine. I also have to re-install older versions of the ethernet drivers to get the system to boot.
    I am using the K7N2 motherboard with onboard ethernet.
    Any reasons/fixes would be great , cheers  :]

  • Problems with a Game - Should I update to OSX Mountain Lion?

    Howdy,
    To cut a long story short and get straight to the point I've been having problems with the Sims 3 for god knows how long and its starting to drive me mad. What I'm now wondering is whether updating to OSX Mountain Lion would help at all. The reason I've asked this is because I read a post by someone that said the only way to update your video card (which might be causing the problem) would be to upgrade the whole operating system.
    Any help would be very much appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Sarah
    P.s. If you need anymore details or anything just let me know

    You can not upgrade your Video card at all.
    Mountain Lion may help, but I don't know that it will.

  • Startup Problems with CQ5.6, Java 1.7, and OSX 10.8

    I'm having a problem with installing CQ5.6 on OSX 10.8 with Java 1.7.  Installing with Java 1.6 is ok, and on OSX 10.7 is ok, but the combo of 10.8 and java 1.7 is having problems.  I've found two issues, but it hasn't gotten us to a solution:
    1) Just out of the box, I get an error connecting to the repository, with the root cause :
    Caused by: java.io.IOException: Could not create a listener on any of the following ports: [8088, 8089, 8090, 8091, 8092, 8093], and could not connect to another cluster node
    I then found this answer: http://www.eyelock.net/blog/archives/490 - and tried starting up with that JVM startup param.
    2) Then, the IOException went away, but was left with the Unknown Host Exception - described here: http://blogs.adobe.com/dmcmahon/2012/09/03/cq5-5-javax-jcr-repositoryexception-unable-to-r egister-data-store-in-cluster/
