Problems with my Creative Inspire 5300 speakers

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 5.1 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.
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?

  • No sound from rear or center of Inspire 5300 speakers

    I have an Audigy 2 Platinum card and an Inspire 5300 speaker system. All was well until a few days when sound only came from the two front speakers. The creative speaker settings tool no longer shows any speaker settings to choose from. Windows allows me to choose 5.1 setting, but of course it doesn't work. I re-installed the latest drivers and media go! software but problem persisits. I ran the diagnostic tool and I received the following error: "NTWriteWordConfig-CONFIG_READWORD". Could this be the cause of my problem, and if so, how can I fix it's Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks

    i have a similar problem
    in my case the problem is with the front c/sub,i have no output on the sub.
    it would be surely great if someone could throw a look at this and help out...

  • Another problem with soundworks 740 cd radio.Speakers this t

    Hi all,I experienced the problem already listed about this unit accepting a second cd when it already has one. Initially I was told to turn the unit upside down on my knee and bounce it up and down whilst pressing the eject button :smileyvery-happy:-This DID work!! at least for a couple of occasions then I finally had to send it off and had a replacement sent. My problem at the moment is that this replacement(which worked fine for 8 months,outside warranty now)has suddenly stopped producing any sound.Nothing with either cd or radio,no hiss or crackle or faint sound-nothing.Has anyone had this problem and did anyone fix it themselves or get someone local to do it'sI contacted creative labs and because it was out of warranty their only offer was to send it back for a service at a cost of ?94! +postage.You can pick one up for roughly that amount new off e-bay at the moment. I think I'm going to stop buying STUFF because it always breaks down-I'm going to li've in the woods in a tent with just the dawn chorus as a musical background,but?knowing my luck?they'll probably all get bird flu!

    Hi Muskrat,
    Sadly ?I am experiencing the same problem with the speakers of my two and a half year old Radio CD740?as you had. Almost overnight the sound completely disappeared and I found the only way to hear anything was to use ear phones, which defeated the object - good stereo sound,?supposedly to compete with Bose. The unit has had little use and I do not believe the fault?has been caused by misuse or even normal wear and tear, it is obviously some weakness in the design.
    I have contacted Creative and they just don't want to know, in fact they sent me a link to a reconditioned Radio CD 745 on their web site. :angry:
    Just wondering if you ever found a solution to the problem (apart from binning it!), and if you did, can you help?

  • 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.

    Hey budd the SoundBlaster Live 5.1 is a great sound card for what you want but I can't make that desicion but I can help you make it by telling you 2 things The Live 5.1 is a grate card but some of these new sound systems don't like some of the older cards and cause some of the channels to hiss and diffrent things so if you have a sound system that was made near the making of the Live 5.1 then the card shouldn't have any problems with the sound system.
    blaster audigy LS on the other hand people are telling me this card is the shiznick hehe... I mean if I had a choice over prices and cards on detail in sound I would schoose the blaster audigy LS just because it's compatible with new sound systems, and grate in sound for DVD and Music and of course games hehe.
    Ither choice you make will be good but like I said you will have to take chances on your sound system if you get the live 5.1 card .
    I do hope this is what you were looking for also please update your drivers for the new card ounce you get it and also it would be good to update the bios.
    Good Luck
