Problems with my Creative Inspire 5300 speak

Okay, the all used to work fine. When playing anything through windows media player, winamp, or anything else for that matter, all I get is sound from the rear speakers and the subwoofer. I have it set for 5. surround, so that's not the problem. When I go to the creative volume control and do the sound test, all the speakers seems to be working fine, except the only one that doesn't make sound in the test is the rear right speaker. But when listening to music or watching anything through windows media, the sub and rear left and right work fine, but no front or center.
I'm using the soundblaster Li've 24-bit sound card.
Any help?

Do you have an X-Fi?
There is some sort of bug in the drivers of the X-Fi which causes the speaker channels to go haywire. It happened to me on two different PCs with two different X-Fis and two different types of speaker systems, one a home theatre system and another a set of PC speakers.
Fiddling with the speaker test in the THX console and the speaker settings applet fixed it. I didn't have to mess with the plugs.
However 'tis been working fine since then.

Creative Inspire 5300 5.1 Problems - Only Two Speakers Work 100%

I recently purchased the Creative Inspire 5300 5.1 speaker system for my home computer, thinking that a low-end setup would work fine until I gathered the resources to trade them in for something better. Upon hooking them up though I find that they do not work as I was led to believe. The front two corner speakers and subwoofer work fine, just as they would if they were a 2.1 setup, however the center and back speakers make no noise. I know I have them hooked up correctly as I can go into my onboard soundcard?s setup program and test them individually, but in actually practice they do nothing. Not with games or movies that are supposedly 5.1 enabled.
I'm clueless as to what the problem may be. Is it that I need a Creative brand soundcard, that may Abit motherboard and it'ss built-in soundcard are unable to establish the proper frequencies or whatnot? Perhaps I do not have the appropriate surround sound drivers installed? Any help would be vastly appreciated.

DevNull7,
You may need to enable certain settings within your sound card to upmix the Stereo to 5.1. Check with your sound card support for further information. They should be able to assit you on this.

Creative inspire 5300 poping help please help

HI all i have had the Creative inspire 5300 for 2 years now on the same pc nothing changed and worked perfectly until now.
now the last 4 weeks i am getting poping thud sounds from all speckers at diffrent times it looks like a interferance problem. I think
I have a surge protector which did not help so i was woundering if my 5300 are broken as thay should have a protector built into the sub for sound interferance i would of thought.
is this a comon problem with these 5300 over time ?
thay still work and sound great but the poping thud is making me mad and not only that thay do this when the pc is turned off so its the speackers that are doing it
i have a asus motherboard this one
http://uk.asus.com/products4.aspx?l=...=58&modelmenu=
also would the Creative inspire T7900 work on this motherboard as it has an onboard sound card which has High Definition Audio Enjoy high-end sound system on your PC! The onboard 8-channel HD audio (High Definition Audio, previously codenamed Azalia) CODEC enables high-quality 92KHz/24-bit audio output, jack-sensing feature, retasking functions and multi-streaming technology that simultaneously sends different audio streams to different destinations. You can now talk to your partners on the headphone while playing a multi-channel network games. All of these are done on one computer. The Dolby Digital Live technology from Dolby Lab encodes the multi-channel audio source into AC-3 bit-stream and outputs it to S/PDIF port in real time.
thanks for any help

Hi,
I have the same problem, I also have a Asus motherboard. Recently they did a massive pop sound and turned off, then all i got was a lot of feedback noise. Is this a problem with the mboard rather than the speakers?

Good Evening,

After I restarted my computer, the software didn't work proprely.

I tried reinstalling the Creative Cloud software multiple times and it didn't help. Is there any other way to install the software without using the app ?

Problem with Zen Creative

I bought my player the last summer and I have the white screen of death since two months. I have already read the post of the white screen, but I want to know if that is a problem of all player Zen Creative 4gb/8gb/6gb or it happens only to some.
Please answer my question, im thinking to bring it back, but if it is a problem of all the players, i will not trouble to send it. I really like the player, but with this problem i'm very upset with Creative.
Thank you for answer <img title="Smiley Wink" src="http://forums.creative.com/i/smilies/6x6_smiley-wink.gif[/img] alt="">

Some of my friends have been experiencing similar problem with the Zen Creative but that does not necessarily mean there is some problem with the software. You should double check before taking any step.

Problems with volume control, built-in speaker on HP ProBook

Hi
Recently installed Arch on a HP ProBook 4330s. Initially sound was working perfectly, but now I'm having problems with the built-in speaker.
Using alsamixer in the terminal, I can independently control the volume of the headphone jack and the speaker, but it seems like the speaker is linked to the headphone volume instead of the speaker volume. Thus raising the speaker volume in alsamixer has no effect on the speaker itself, which only outputs sound as long as the headphone volume is raised and the loopback box is checked. This also means that the speakers cannot be muted while using headphones.
I installed pavucontrol to see if I could gain any insight, but trying to select "Speakers" as output port seems only to have an effect the volume sliders in alsamixer. So no settings in PulseAudio UI could solve my issue.
I have googled wide and far, but haven't found anything helpful. I tried reoading kernel modules snd-hda-intel, snd-hda-codec-idt, snd-hda-codec-generic, but nothing changed.
Below is some info of my system. Please let me know if I need provide more. Any help is appreciated.

I do have all those packages installed. The volume controls were working perfectly for about 3 week, but now suddenly they are not behaving as expected. I don't know of any changes I made to my system that could have caused this. I suspected it might be a problem with the drivers, so I tried to find the appropriate driver at https://www.kernel.org/doc/Documentatio … Models.txt
[frwdrik@frwdrik ~]$ cat /proc/asound/card0/codec#0 | grep -i codec
Codec: IDT 92HD87B1/3
But I cannot find this codec on that page.

PLEASE HELP - Serious problem with my Creative Zen Touch firmware

Ok, so I finally decided that I would upgrade to the latest firmware version for my Creative Zen Touch. I knew that doing so would erase everything on it, so I backed up everything onto my computer's hard dri've. So from that standpoint, I'm in the clear.
HOWEVER, during the upgrade process, my computer froze, leaving my precious MP3 player without ANY firmware. This then drove it into "recovery" mode, where I can either clean up, format, or reload firmware. I've gone through each of these options, but when I go to "reload firmware" my computer will no longer detect my Zen! I've tried reinstalling different driver versions, different firmware versions, etc. The bottom line now is that my mp3 player has no firmware, and my computer won't detect it.
I feel like I probably need to go back to the basics. Unfortuantely, I don't have my installation CD with me. Can anyone post the initial installation file please? Thanks in advance!
I really hope I can work this out, I don't know if I've gone a day without my Zen in the past two years!

Simon, this is actually a common problem with the touch. Mine did it about a year after purchase, so I was safe to open it up and fix it. It is actually a really simple fix and is due to a loose connector. I know alot of other people on nomadness.net were having this problem, so I posted a solution here. Hope this helps!

Problems with my Creative Micro Zen hanging on the Creative Logo Scr

I've been having problems with my Zen and have sent the following email to creative but if any one has any suggestions etc on what to do could they please email me thanks
My Creative Micro Zen 5GB player has been hanging whilst using the player.
I followed the advice found in the manual and on the creative web site to reset the player by removing the battery and then reinstalling it. This worked on a few occasions.
However the player hung again and so I tried to rest it as before, when I replace the battery the player turned on and lights up with the Creative logo screen, but then hangs on the Creative logo screen, despite waiting to see if the player continued with the start-up, it did not and so then I tried resetting again, by removing the battery and reinstalling it.
However the player is still hanging on this screen and I cant get it move away from this screen. The player wont allow me to move away from this screen at all, so I am unable to carryout the disk clean up which was also suggested. When the resetting didn?t work, I tried taking the battery out and leaving it overnight and then replacing the battery, however the player still hangs on the Creative logo screen. This has been continuing now for three days.
I have also tried plugging the player into the power charger and it still hangs on the Creative logo screen. The backlight on the Zen Player lights up when the player first turns on but once the Creative logo appears on screen the light fades out. I have also tried recharging the battery to see if maybe the problem was a flat battery but this didn?t appear to work as it is still hanging. However the Zen does light up as it does when it charges normally. I also own a spare battery, which I have tried but the Zen player still hangs on the Creative Logo page.

I found the solution! I saw numerous posts saying that all you could do is send it back to the company, then I found this one:
Hi All,
My zen has been down for the last week, hangs up on creative screen. I took the battery out and was able to get to the recovery mode but "disc scan" would not do anything(in limbo) and "reboot "met with the same result, nothing. If you want to talk to anyone at creative and are past your 6 month warranty window you have to pay $20 for the phone call. Well I decided to take matters into my own hands and spent yesterday morning researching old threads about this problem. I kept finding an uncommon fix. When you hold your power button on and replace you battery and the recovery screen starts up you wrap on the back with your knuckle, in my case I hit my zen face down sharply on my dresser. To my amazement the "Doobie Brothers" started playing and I have'nt had any problems yet. Evidently these systems have a hard dri've that hangs up. It may not work for you but it cured my glitch.
Steve C.
It worked for me, but only after four or fi've tries. Good Luck!<IMG height=6 src="http://forums.americas.creative.com/i/smilies/6x6_smiley-very-happy.gif" width=6 border=0>

Problem with reinstalling creative cloud

Hello, I recently downloaded creative cloud and then subsequently photoshop cc. I was only actually able to use it once and then later that day when I turned on my laptop it then told me that there was a problem and that my computer needed to revert back to a time before there was a problem and that meant that creative cloud and photoshop were removed. I then went back to reinstall creative cloud and i got a very confusing message.I have attached a picture of the message that displays, I have no idea what to do. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
