Why is this driver not on your page?!
Please fast help...
and this is a secure download you mean? ....
Jeez, calm down already. I never said you HAD to download it, but if you want any of the applications that work in XP to work in Vista then you're going to need that disk; either by downloading it or fromk here,?http://us.creative.com/products/prod...7&product=6743?

Maybe you really should take a vallium or something and re-read what I posted, then you may just grasp the fact that that is the exact driver I told you you needed.

  • Sound very distorted at bootup with Creative Sound Blaster X-Fi Xtreme Audio

    I have a new HP Pavilion Elite e9180t PC with a Creative Sound Blaster X-Fi Xtreme Audio sound card, an OEM card offered by HP.  On two occasions, only two, so far, when the system is done booting the sound is distorted and it buzzes and hisses periodically.  Upon reboot it is fine.
    I have no idea what is going on and am concerned that this is a system of a pending failure.  Is there something I can check?
    Thanks.

    I have this exact same system with the exact same problems.  I called HP and got a woman who insisted it was all in my head.  She didn't say that, but she continuted to tell me that unless she personally heard the problem herself, she could not help me.  I told her it didn't happen all the time but usually at bootup and about every 6 hours or so as I was playing games throughout the day.  I am a computer professional also, which should be noted, and I have worked tier 3 support for many years so I know how much knowledge a tier 1 support person has, which is what she was.  I couldn't understand much of what she said due to the accent, which made it even more frustrating.  Additionally, she remotely got on my system and clicked a bunch of things that made absolutely no sense whatsoever to the resolution of the problem.  It seemed to me that she was trying to portray herself as "fixing" the problem so that I would agree it was now fixed and move one without her having to send me a new sound card, as I suggested.  She asked me the same questions over and over "so what exactly are you hearing?" and "How often does this occur?".  After the 4th time my frustration really began to show.  Especially after "I'm afraid I have to conclude that there is not a problem with your soundcard if I cannot hear it." and "the diagnostics say the sound card is fine so it must be your speakers" even though I have swapped out the speakers several times and it also occurs on the headphones.  Additionally, I bought TWO identical systems, one for me and one for my husband and his does not have the same problem.  She tried to tell me that our parts were not identical, even though I opened both computers and I will tell you they certainly ARE identical.  She is now calling me in exactly 6 hours because I told her that the issue occurs every 6 hours or so -- clearly she does not understand that that was an estimate of how often it occurs, not an exact timeline.  I am really frustrated.  She also told me there were no other complaints for this issue and now I find this forum.  I also found a similar forum on the creative website.  hmmmm.  That tells me she was lying.  She refused to let me speak to anyone else, also.  Where are the award winning service and support technicians in all of this??  I mean, I work with HP from a business perspective all the time and I get better service.  I am extremely frustrated.

  • Creative Sound Blaster X-Fi Xtreme Audio: Many issues I have been faci

    Hello everyone. This is my first post at these forums, with the hopes of getting my issues resolved once and for all.
    First and foremost, let me inform you that I have very high experience with computer hardware.
    A couple weeks ago, I bought a Creative Sound Blaster X-Fi Xtreme Audio sound card from a local retailer. (Yes, I am aware that this is not an actual X-Fi card with the designated chip). I previously had an onboard sound solution on my motherboard, and uninstalled and removed all of the drivers COMPLETELY before I installed my new sound card. I then opened up my case, and continued with the installation of the card. After I had downloaded and installed all of the latest drivers, I immediately started to notice issues with the card. My MAIN problem is that if I have a specific application open, whatever it may be, one of my headphones, either left or right, will stop producing sound, and then is followed by the second one, which leaves me with no sound output at all. If I restart the application, the problem is temporarily fixed, but then comes back again within a few minutes.
    This is VERY irritating to me, seeing as I originally thought the problem was not with the sound card. Believe it or not, I reinstalled my copy of windows over 5 times throughout the course of the last few weeks in hopes of finally fixing the issue. And here I am, on a brand new installation of windows, and the problem STILL persists.
    I can assure you all of my hardware is functioning correctly as I have tried 2 other sound cards which have not had any issues like this whatsoever.
    Yes, I have read the FAQ, but I couldn't seem to find the solution to my issue there, which is why I am posting it here. Sorry if I sound irritated, but this has bothered me very much and I have been starting to lose a lot of hope in Creative...
    Thanks in advance.

    Anybody?

  • Creative Sound Blaster X-Fi Xtreme Audio (PCI-Express) + Vista 32bit an media pla

    Hi folks,Maybe someone here can help me with this issue, I recently bought a Creative Sound Blaster X-Fi Xtreme Audio 7. Sound Card - OEM (PCI-Express), it arri'ved with the cd with software and drivers on it and i installed it into my vista 32bit without any problems.On rebooting my sound was working normally and as far as i could tell all was great untill that is i went to play some mp3 using windows media player, wmp kept telling me it couldnt play the file type then i tried to play a wma file an got the same thing, basically almost all audio types will no longer play in wmp. I rolled back the driver to use the microsoft driver (high defination audio device) and everything is playing in media player again.Only now i cant use the software suppiled with the card. Anyone have any idea how to use the creative driver and get wmp to play properly thanks in advance.
    (in addition) after some messing around with various settings i discovered that this seems to be caused by the sb enhancements, when i disable them in speaker properties wmp plays as it should, althought i am rather disappointed that i have to disable the features on the card inorder to get it to work properly.

    Hi Orion,
    You might want to get in touch with support to enquire about the CD.

  • HELP ASUS Vintage AH1 And Creative Sound Blaster X-Fi Xtreme Mu

    I have a weird problem.
    I have an ASUS vintage ah system with an AMD 2200+ 64bit processor
    ATI PCIE Vidcard (X800 GTO Squared)
    I added the soundcard today, replacing my audigy 4. Soundcard purchased : Creative Sound Blaster X-Fi Xtreme Music
    When i booted the pc, it posts ok, then when windows xp and vista rc both get to the moving blue or green bar it just stops dead. Harddri've light is out, no disk activity, it stays this way indeffinately.
    I've tried shutting off all bios options, i've flashed to latest BIOS and no joy.
    I tried the card in my second pentium 4 machine and it boots fine.
    What the hell is goin on?
    Anyone else seen any weird incompatabilities or have this card running on a vintage ah?
    Thanks

    Hi,
    That is probably a fault with the card. I'd contact your retailer or our customer service (contact us on the top menu)..
    They'll be able to get the card replaced.

  • Sound Blaster X-FI Xtreme Gamer Fatal1ty Pro problem

    Hello,
    I own a Sound Blaster X-FI Xtreme Gamer Fatalty Pro and I have a problem with it. If I want to switch to speakers or headphones, by removing the jack and inserting another one back to the sound card, the sounds stops, or it emits a sounds like when someone connected to an ECG dies. I can only swap headphones with speakers and viceversa when the computer is shut off.
    Can you please help me?

    Hi,
    Did this happen right out of the box or do you own the card for some time now?
    Just in case, please ensure that the sound card is firmly seated on the pci slot.

  • Creative Sound Blaster X-Fi Xtreme Issue

    Hey. I have Creative Sound Blaster X-Fi Xtreme Audio 7.1 Sound Card but cannot receive sound from it. I installed ALSA during the initial installed and tried to configure it but with no luck. I'm using the sound card with headphones too. Is there anything else I need to install/configure to get this working?
    Cheers.

    kentern,  I looked at sly's output above (I hadn't noticed the link to it before because my browser colors and fonts are very hard to read), and he has the card that uses the CA0106 codec.  I also have the CA0110 codec card, but have removed it from the PC as it seemed a hopeless basket case with all versions of ALSA, and I never did find anyone on any linux distro successfully running it to the point of producing any sound. 
    PS: Admittedly, the CA0110 codec cards are also supposed to work starting with ALSA 1.0.21 (see the alsa user and developer lists), but since its a completely different card, I would suggest you start a separate thread for that card instead of diverting his thread, here.  For the time being, on my system, I've replaced the card with an old PCI card that works without trouble.  I spent a couple weeks trying to get the x-Fi one to work on 1/2 dozen different distros, with zero success on any of them, and as a matter of fact, it was the ALSA 1.0.22 in archlinux that got me interested in Arch.

  • Creative Sound Blaster X-fi Xtreme Music prob

    I have Creative Sound Blaster X-fi Xtreme Music and i'm wondering how can I adjust the settings so I stop hearing myself in the microphone.
    Please answer me, thanks a lot!

    It has when you are in "Audio Creation" mode and set speakers to 5.1 (or 7.1 if you use tripple plugs). You can route any input monitoring and stereo output to any output jacks, and even duplicate it to several jacks. Depending on your audio software you should also be able to route specific tracks to specific outputs (while in the creative console you define what plugs the output channels are send to).

  • 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.

  • Sound Blaster X-FI Xtreme Gamer Card Trouble With Windows Vi

    Hi, yesterday I installed vista and had no sound, I then updated the drivers for my Sound Blaster X-FI XtremeGamer Card and then the card was detected. The card says the drivers are working and that everything is fine yet I hear no sound, I have messed around with the options unmuting things but nothing seems to work, any help would be great. Thanks, Auro

    Hi, im not tryin to insult ur intelligence but have u checked to make sure the sound is not muted in windows? for some reason my pc mutes the sound randomly when i turn it on (yes im running Vista 64...). This confused the beejesus out of me until i realised what was happening. Now im lucky if my pc actually starts up because of crummy xfi drivers and the BSOD but thats another rant entirely.....

  • Sound Blaster X-Fi Xtreme Gamer Fatal1ty - Computer randomly freezes accompanied by a single be

    I just bought my X-Fi Xtreme Gamer Fatalty Pro Series and my computer randomly freezes for up to 0 seconds and I hear a single beep from my internal computer speaker after which my system goes back to normal for about 5 to 0 minutes and then it repeats the same process. I have upgraded all my drivers for my motherboard, including flashing my bios to an updated version, and I ran the creative software auto update from the website and updated the drivers and software and I'm still having the same issue. I am running a Dell XPS 400 system:?Dell DXP05 MotherboardPentium D830 Dual Core Smithfield @ 3.0Ghz2 gigs ramXFX Nvidia GeForce 7900GS 256mb Video Cardand X-Fi Xtreme Gamer Fatalty Pro Series Card?Any thoughts?

  • Sound blaster x-fi xtreme gamer - problem with headpho

    Hi,I've install the card and i want to use the creative speakers and headphones as well. (seperatly offcourse, but connected together)Is it possible at all to connect both of them together?for instance, creative shows in the manual picture to connect the headphones in line, and the speakers in 2.but i can only hear the speakers or the headphones when i connect them in line ... I thought that i can "program" some jack? ( like in most motherboards) to do that as well, but i saw the the "flexijack" option is all grey and cannot be used. If some one here know/had this problem, i would appreciate some help/advice. Thanks in advance,??
