Problems with SB X-fi Audio, fast help requi

Hey!
i've got an BIG problem with my Soundblaster X-Fi Audio.
I can hear any sound that is played on the computer, so there is no problem there, i have installed it correctly and deactivated my on-board soundcard.
But sometimes, either when i'm producing music, or mixing music in diffenrent programs, the sound just "hangs up" and everytime i'm trying to play something after it freezes, even on itunes, the music wont even start. Its not even beginning to play, the marker in the field
that shows how far in the track "you are" is not moving.
This is very annoying, and i have to reboot my computer to solve the thing everytime.
I dont have any other problems with the soundcard, the drivers is updated and so on.

oh , i forgot
my computer runs windows Xp proffesional

    Re: Hey, I had met a problem with installation. Can any one help me?
    This worked for an English version and the concept should work with all Adobe programs - new or old (hopefully in any language). My guess is that you have/had an older version of Acrobat/Reader on your computer hard drive that needs to be *completely* removed first. Uninstall the new (and any old) Acrobat; then try using the "kb2..." guideline link below before reinstalling the new Acrobat. I am including the lengthy instructions in order to help others with more extensive installation problems. Good luck!
    I live on a fixed income and use CS for a hobby. I had problem installing Adobe Creative Suite (CS1) to Windows 7 64-bit Pro on my new computer. Also installed Adobe Photoshop LR3. What I learned: All Adobe products (Flash, Acrobat/Reader, Photoshop, Creative Suites, etc.) leave a VERY pervasive footprint on your hard drive. Logic finally worked for me.... think of building a house; there is an order you have to do things in. First, you have to clean the area before laying the foundation; then you have to build the framework before you put the roof on. You cannot install an older program over ANY newer program; and you will sometimes have a problem installing a newer program containing Flash, Reader, etc. unless you "erase" the older versions of Flash, Reader beforehand. If installing older programs, do a Custom/Manual install; do not install older versions of Flash, Reader, etc.  packaged with your Adobe software.
    SOLUTION (not easy, but it works):
    I first tried this; it did not solve my problem (but, if applicable, may help others).  http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows7/Make-older-programs-run-in-this-version-of-Win dows
    Before doing anything, make document and any database/presets/cache back-ups beforehand (keep notes on their designated location*); manually create a System Restore point. (Be prepared to reinstall Windows if necessary - I didn't have to.)
    Completely and meticulously eradicate (clean) your hard drive of ALL Adobe programs [uninstall, remove remaining folders, and remove only the registry entries that have the Adobe name attached (unless you are an expert and fully understand the other entries)]. Use this as a guideline  http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/400/kb400769.html
    Do a Custom/Manual reinstall of all your Adobe products *in order of release dates* (OLDEST first).... do not include Reader, Flash, etc. If your CD will not automatically run at this point, click "Open folder to view files" (use Computer/Windows Explorer, if necessary). Click "Adobe Creative Suite (or your desired program) ==> Setup.exe" (IMPORTANT: Make sure that Reader, Flash, etc. are unchecked.)
    After each of your desired Adobe programs are installed, test to insure they boot up. Then download the latest Reader, Flash, etc. apps and install them (I did this in order of release date - oldest first). Do test boot(s) again.
    Copy/Paste your document and any database/presets/cache back-ups into the appropriate folders (*this will vary depending on your programs and your filing system).
    It has been four weeks and all my Adobe programs work flawlessly - system is stable, no problems!

  • I have problems with outgoing call no audio, only works with speaker. I bought my iphone on december 2011.

    I have problems with outgoing call no audio, only works with speaker. I bought my iphone on december 2011.

    Had the same problem, no audio on incoming or outgoing calls and only could hear the conversation of the call if I put on speaker. It seemed to start after I did a recent IOS update this past month. I tried restart, reset and restore of my iPhone but nothing changed. It appears not to be a software issue but a hardware problem. I got my phone this past summer so it was still under warranty and got it replaced.

  • Xfi Xtreme Audio Problems with Microphone and other things NEED HELP!!!!

    ? Alright i have exhausted my search for an answer for my problems.... This is a last resort now!
    Im running Windows 7
    st Problem: I was having problems with my microphone where people heard themselves through my microphone. Ok well i have a creative Fatility series headset with a supposed noise canceling mic. So last night i was like screw it imma put in the install disk for my sound card Xfi Xtreme Audio.
    This Arose my 2nd Problem: Now that the drivers were installed and i finaly got a volume panel it says im running Windows Vista. The name next to my card says Sound Blast X-Fi Xtreme Audio (Vista). Alright so i am running windows 7.... What the heck! Next thing is my microphone doesnt even work! This is just awsome btw and im pretty sure the volume panel isnt even the way it was when i was on an XP system.
    So if anyone has a fix to this problem let me know it would be great!

    A quick update i was able to fix Problem 2, i had to get rid of what i installed so im just back to Problem . I dont have the VOlume Panel anymore but my microphone still seems to make it so that people can hear themselves....

  • Guitar "twang" when recording with macmini and M-Audio Fast Track Ultra

    hey was hoping someone might have similar setup or enough knowledge to help out.
    when i record guitar through my interface i get a clip after each guitar note that sounds very flangey (or like and outter-space type "twang" if that helps describe it) i was hoping it would come out a bit cleaner. and yes i have made sure no effects are turned on. its should be straight up clean guitar, and the notes preceding these clips are in-fact nice and clean. its just the milliseconds after each note that are bothering me.
    my biggest issue is i don't know if its being caused by my interface or a bad setting within the program. I am using the build in preamp and plugging directly into the unit, so i'm going to get a mic and see how it sounds then.
    I did a lot of research on the D/A interfaces out there and i went with the fast track ultra for the price and because the company really hyped these preamps. this is the general description you will find on sites trying to sell the FTU "4 preamps with award-winning M-Audio Octane technology"
    if this noise is cause by a problem with these preamp.... im gona be POBB! i would have saved up and waited to buy and apogee product! anyone out these using an ensemble??? would love to hear some feedback about that unit! thanks in advance for any help!

    hey thanks for the reply! i have since adjusted a few parameters and had good luck going directly into the ftu's 1/4in jack in the front. the more i use the program the more im understanding (you can see i'm relieving my neebie side!) i have not messed much with the ftu's control program itself, is this helpful when trying to get good levels and such?
    how knowledgable are you about microphones? i have a garbage mic from radio shack and when trying to record my acoustic guitar with it i really need to crank up the input on the ftu and be close to the mic to get a signal. this in turn creates that "fuzzy warm" sound that you can hear before the guitar starts playing. it's that analog sound like going through an old tube-amp or something... now while the instrument is playing its not as noticeable obviously and some people even like to add this sort of effect onto digital stuff to give it that warm feeling...
    my question is- what if i want just a nice crisp acoustic recording from my mic into garageband? do i go with something that uses phantompower or what? im just so lost because i don't know much about mics (except they can get REAL expensive... saw one for 7k at guitar center by me!) well sorry for ramblings! thanks in advance for help!

  • Severe problem with installing and starting Audio-DVD Pla

    Hi,
    after installing the new drivers (SBAX_PCDRV_LB_2_8_000.exe) for my Audigy2ZS in XP SP3 i had np mic boost and the mixer did not show the mic as an selectable source. So i rolled back to my old drivers and after that i have problems with installing and starting the Audio DVD Player. I tried so far: uninstalling everything like its said solution ID 72, checking HD for corrupted files and i did a repair installation of XP. Nothing helped. When i only install the drivers and the DVD Audio Player from the original CD everything is fine until the reboot adter installation. When the OS tries to start the "chkcolor.exe" the PC instantly reboots. When preventing XP from doing so, there is no reboot, but as soon i want to start the DVD Audio Player a reboot occurs again. When i try to uninstall the DVD Audio Player before unstillaing the drivers, the is also a reboot. First uninstalling the drivers and then the DVD Audio Player, there is no reboot.
    Any ideas?
    Best regards and thank in advance,

  • Problem with TV out, only audio, no video

    I has just bought a new ipod video 30GB and I also bought a A/V cable
    of apple. But when I connect to my television. Only hear audio from
    television but no video.
    I tried a lot of ways as folows:
    + video setting : changed TV out --> ON
    + I tried restone ipod to factory condition
    + I tried to change the position of 3 connectors (Yellow,Red, Whitle)
    of A/V cable (according to standard, Yellow is video connector).
    + I tried some tips from Discussion Techniques from Apple Forum
    But I still can't see video, just hear audio from Television.
    What's problem?
    I think Ipod only send the audio signal, not video signal.
    Can you help me to solve this problem?
    Thank you very much.

    As well I had the same problem with my i-pod and the one of my wife. The solution was simple:
    config: i-pod 60Gb; i-pod 30Gb
    cable: no name audio/video A/V cable
    TV-out: select ask (not on!!!)
    cable into TV: white on white
    yellow on red
    red on yellow
    There are no problems with bad video quality if volume is high, just working fine
    What may be the problem: I think, the automatic detect (if you put your setting for TV-out on your i-pod to on) is not working. As well as using only headphones there must be an electronic cirquit detection; means with no Apple stuff just not working. As well there are the yellow and red cable changed; means white and yellow have audio; red video.
    Working so for video and diashow on my pod each time I´ve to select TV-Out manually starting video or Dia Show. In that moment both applications are starting in small windows, not in Full Screen mode on the pod.
    The order to connect TV or i-pod doesn´t matter; it´s just the manual setting the i-pod for TV-out.
    I hope, the info can help you.

  • Problem with reading files from folders - please help

    Hi!
    I have 2 folders (folder1 and folder2) on 2 different locations. Now i will say few things about my program.
    First folder is input folder. Different applications generate XML files and put them inside folder1.
    Then i have my application which i use to manipulate with those folders. Basically, i have 2 threads. One is checking if there are files in folder1 and other thread is moving manipulated files from folder1 to folder2.
    I face this problem. XML files are much faster generated then manipulated. Example: for every 3 incoming files into folder1 i have 1 manipulated and stored file into folder2. This way i face problem that some older files are never manipulated, they are stuck in folder1 basically forever.
    Could someone help me to solve this problem? I do not know how to select files form folder1 ordered by "date modified time".
    Tnx for your time and help!

    Do not crosspost! I'll lock this thread.

  • Problem with SWF export and audio looping

    When I export from Keynote into SWF, I get an odd audio looping problem when playing the SWF files. Here's the workflow:
    Create Keynote presentation (includes transitions typically, but also happens with presentations that don't).
    Record audio using Audacity, convert using iTunes to MP3 in order to be able to export from Keynote to Flash (Keynote can't export WAV files).
    Drop in MP3s onto slides. Sync up my transitions with audio.
    Export Keynote file to SWF, including the audio.
    Play SWF file either directly using Safari or when posted using Firefox. Audio plays, but a certain length into the audio the audio file seems to re-initiate and play over itself.
    Anybody seen this? Anyone know how to solve it?
    This is pretty critical for us (work related). We are using Keynote to create educational content SWF files, and we only discovered this problem after release.
    Thanks for your help!

  • Problems with a Published PDF audio/video that runs out of synch

    Hi,
    I have a large (30minute) video, with a combination of audio,  flash videos with and without embedded music, and screens.
    I published the captivate project to PDF, and then ran it using Abode Reader X and Flashplayer 11.01.
    It played fine.
    However, I am getting feedback from various people that when they try and run the video, the initial embedded flv file (with music) starts off and then suddenly the entire PDF file goes wild displaying screens in 1 second intervals in no apparent pattern with the music from the embedded flv file still playing in the background, eventually the voice over starts but obviously out of synch as the slides still appear in these 1 second intervals.
    I ran a few tests to see if this strange behaviour had anything to do with the Adobe Reader or Flash Player installed, but there seems to be no pattern.
    I even upgraded one system to Adobe Reader X and Flashplayer 11 but still experienced this same problem.
    Does anyone have any suggestions as to why this might be happening for some users and not for all? Or what other settings I might try looking at to solve the problem?
    Thank you,
    Tannis

  • Sound Problems with Mainbord....Please help!

    MSI K8N SLI Platinum nForce4 Ultra 4DDR-DIMM 3PCI 3PCIe SATA-II Raid Audio GB-LAN Firewire Socket939 ATX
    Hi are having huge problems with my sound.
    Got all the gadgets last week. And have built the computer now. Everything is installed, all the drivers i got with the Box.
    Now the problem is that the sound i very "crappy". It sound´s  like a broken speaker. i have tried with different speakers and the problem persist.
    Ive tried changing drivers and all that, and checked all setting. But nothing changes...
    I get sound, but it sounds like hell. Cant almost not hear what´s playing or what are said through the speaker.
    Is it a hardware problem, something broken on Mainbord??????
    Somebody know?
    Please help.

    Just as a suggestion. . . .
    I would remove the soundcard and clean the edge pin connectors.  The "static" type sound could be comming from a resistive connection in the edge connector.  You may also try running dxdiag from your "start / run" menu and see if the sound results are better.
    Also, (even though the sound card is new), you may want to blow out the pin connector in the back of the card (where you plug in your speakers) and try reseating your speaker cable again.
    Someone above mentioned power.  That could easily be an issue if you have alot of hardware and a power supply that is not up to par with your gear.
    EDIT:  For some reason, I thought you had a soundblaster card.  So, pls forgive the card removal information.  just trying to help!
    Just some stuff to check. . . GL!
