Properly removing 2.18.0011 Audigy drivers

I installed the 2.8.00 drivers for a while, but would now like to revert back to 2.8.000, however no matter what I try the 2.8.000 installer always says newer drivers are installed.
In the past I've found using this...
takeown /f C:\Windows\*.cdf
cacls C:\Windows\*.cdf /G *insert your logon name*:F
... along with an uninstall properly removes CLs drivers, however it's not working with the 2.8.00 drivers.
Anyone know how to completely remove the 2.8.00 drivers so I can go back to using 2.8.000?
Cheers.

That hasn't helped unfortunately.
I'm using the Win 7 RC x64 by the way.
EDIT:? My mistake, there was one in C:\Windows\System32\ and another in C:\Windows\sysWOW64\
Thanks KokChoy!

Non-beta audigy drivers with OpenAL support. Wh

Is there going to be any official drivers for the audigy that supports OpenAL? The beta drivers have been out for over three months. I have had a lot of problems with audigy drivers before so I don't want to risk installing beta drivers. The latest official drivers are from March 2004 so it almost seems like the audigy drivers aren't updated any longer.

They say beta since they don't run some of the software like EAX Console, Speaker Settings, etc. But the new Audio Console gives you all the settings for the stuff that the beta driver won't play nicely with.
They are WHQL Microsoft certified. So they are really final's. It's possible that no final version may ever be issued, just maybe more beta's, since Creative probably doesn't want to deal with masses of folks complaining about some of the older software not running anymore. But they are final drivers and completely safe. Just uninstall the older drivers, install the new ones, then install the Audio Console. Surround Mixer, Soundfonts, the Volume Control, the EAX Control and Device Settings in AudioHQ will all work. But I would make a shortcut to Audio Console as you really will only need that and the Surround Mixer to control what you used to need all that resource hogging pretty GUI software for.
If you already have the Audio Console installed I would uninstall that before you remove the old drivers and reinstall it after the new drivers are installed.
The new MediaSource stuff all works with the new driver too.
If you want this all in 2 packages (the Audigy 4 Pro UPax tweaked cd and the Creative beta driver tweaked to work with it) you can read the audio threads at driverheaven.net. Uninstall everything Creative. Then you uncheck Windows Drivers and Audio Console in the Audigy 4 cd install and after rebooting install the UPax Creative driver mod, reboot, install the Audigy Entertainment Center update only if using a Platinum breakout box, then install the latest official Creative Audio Console.
So you have several options. I still use only the official non beta Creative stuff since I'm not using any of the newer OpenAL games. I've read that the newer beta's improve the sound somewhat, but everything sounds great as it is.

Installing Audigy Drivers on XP pro via group polic

Hi
We have a suite of machines in our music dept which run XP Pro and which contain Sound Blaster Audigy Cards. Our normall practice is to create an msi package from a machine which works, then use that to push drivers/software whatever out to the other machines. I can create an msi for the SD Audigy drivers and software ok, but when I try to install that on an machine via a GPO the drivers will not install.
Has anybody else had this problem and solved it's Becuase otherwise I'll have to install the sound drivers manually. If I do this then I have to install all the music apps the same way as they will all require the drivers to install. I'd rather not do this: we have 7 now, but when we have 30 ........
andy

Have you asked in groups which are focused on system administration of XP, too? I think that's more likely to be fruitful than here (you should ask here as well, because someone else could indeed have direct experience with the Audigy case).

Sound Blaster Audigy Drivers and Applications CD-Rom

Does anyone know where I can get or download?the "Sound Blaster Audigy" "Drivers and applications" CD-rom?
I have included a pic below:
<img alt="cd-rom" src="http://www.geocities.com/pershingbpa/soundblastercd.jpg" align="left[/img] width="70" height="705">

jay23,
First extract the RAR file you downloaded using WinRar. During the extraction, WinRar will create an ISO file which is an image of the installation CD. If you don't want to burn that ISO file to a CD, then download and install MagicDisc from the link I gave above. MagicDisc lets you mount an ISO file as a virtual hard dri've. You should be able to install from that virtual CD just as if it were a real hard copy CD, but I've never tried that so can't say for certain.

How to properly remove replicas from iDS 5.0 servers

How to properly remove replicas and their associated entries from directory servers?
This question may seem trivial, however the reason I am asking this is that shortly after replicas are removed from supplier and consumer servers, slapd.exe generates an error on both machines, usually within 2 to 3 minutes after removal. That causes servers to restart and any other program connected to one of those two machines has to be restarted as well (or at least recconnected to them), which is very annoying, especially if those programs are in the middle of some processing and need to write or retrieve something from LDAP server.
I am using iPlanet Directory Server 5.0 SP1, on two Win2K machines. One server has a single master replica, other is the consumer - a tipical test configuration.
The documentation (Administrator's guide) is quite extensive in describing how to set up replication, but there is nothing on how to bring replicas down.
I can only imagine that entries should be removed in reverse order as they were created (directory entries, replication agreement, databases, suffixes, etc...), and that has been tried numerous times. Nevertheless, the problem persists.
Can anyone please help me?

It would help if you could tell us which error is occuring on the servers...
Anyway the way to stop replication is :
1) Remove replication agreements.
2) Disable Replica.
That should be enough.
You don't need to remove the entries, database not suffixes.
Regards,
Ludovic.

Properly removing programs and other files

I recently tried to install World of Warcraft on my macbook. After I realized that my computer was just a little too slow to run it properly I tried to erase it. Now my macbook is telling me that my hard drive is almost full and I'm convinced that I didn't remove World of Warcraft properly. How do I check if I removed it or not and if I didn't how do I properly remove it and other files for future reference?

Uninstalling Software: The Basics
Most OS X applications are completely self-contained "packages" that can be uninstalled by simply dragging the application to the Trash. Applications may create preference files that are stored in the /Home/Library/Preferences/ folder. Although they do nothing once you delete the associated application, they do take up some disk space. If you want you can look for them in the above location and delete them, too.
Some applications may install an uninstaller program that can be used to remove the application. In some cases the uninstaller may be part of the application's installer, and is invoked by clicking on a Customize button that will appear during the install process.
Some applications may install components in the /Home/Library/Applications Support/ folder. You can also check there to see if the application has created a folder. You can also delete the folder that's in the Applications Support folder. Again, they don't do anything but take up disk space once the application is trashed.
Some applications may install a startupitem or a Log In item. Startupitems are usually installed in the /Library/StartupItems/ folder and less often in the /Home/Library/StartupItems/ folder. Log In Items are set in the Accounts preferences. Open System Preferences, click on the Accounts icon, then click on the LogIn Items tab. Locate the item in the list for the application you want to remove and click on the "-" button to delete it from the list.
Some software use startup daemons or agents that are a new feature of the OS. Look for them in /Library/LaunchAgents/ and /Library/LaunchDaemons/ or in /Home/Library/LaunchAgents/.
If an application installs any other files the best way to track them down is to do a Finder search using the application name or the developer name as the search term. Unfortunately Spotlight will not look in certain folders by default. You can modify Spotlight's behavior or use a third-party search utility, Easy Find, instead. Download Easy Find at VersionTracker or MacUpdate.
Some applications install a receipt in the /Library/Receipts/ folder. Usually with the same name as the program or the developer. The item generally has a ".pkg" extension. Be sure you also delete this item as some programs use it to determine if it's already installed.
There are many utilities that can uninstall applications. Here is a selection:
AppZapper
Automaton
Hazel
CleanApp
Yank
SuperPop
Uninstaller
Spring Cleaning
Look for them at VersionTracker or MacUpdate.

Sound Blaster Audigy drivers aren't working!!!!

How to properly remove "Network" from Windows Explorer and Save Dialog boxes?

I've recently rolled out Windows 7 and noticed that in some applications (Office 2003 - yes we are due for an upgrade - happening later this year), when a user clicks the down arrow in a "Save As" dialog box to view the available locations - a
list of seemingly every computer in the broadcast domain is generated and displayed. This takes about 30-45 seconds. I don't want my users to be able to view a list of every computer in their broadcast domain, and I especially don't want them to
be presented with said list every time they try to save something. In newer apps, the list is not automatically displayed but is still accessible by clicking the "Network" selection.
What is the proper way to remove this?
I've tried the following:
1) Disabling the NetBios over TCPIP service - works but prevents other things from working properly.
2) Disabling the Computer Browser service - does not work.
3) Changing HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{F02C1A0D-BE21-4350-88B0-7367FC96EF3C}\ShellFolder\Attributes from b0040064 to b0940064 as suggested here -http://www.sevenforums.com/tutorials/39699-network-add-remove-navigation-pane.html
. This seems to work but I cannot find anything that says this is supported by Microsoft and I am wary of what side effects may occur.
4) Using a GPO to enable the "No Computers Near Me in Network locations" and "No Entire Network in Network locations." - no change.
It seems like there should a simple way to do this as I can't be the only admin that doesn't want their users browsing a list of every computer on the network.
Thanks!

WTF!?!?!??!?!??! Where are the Audigy drivers?? ETA?? Anythin

Funny how Logitech supports any mouse that they have ever released with frequent software updates to boot.
Funny how my Audigy works perfectly in Ubuntu no thanks to Creative.
Funny how x-fi drivers seem to be getting released at a lot faster pace than Audigy ones.
And please any fanboys do not try to give me the "Vista sound architecture is so complex" crap, im sure a multi million dollar company is able to hire some competent programmers to be able to figure it out.

Here's my impression after talking to the guy who directed me to this forum, reading this forum, and hearing the gripes of a few other users....
Creative will continue to drag you guys along about some 'alleged' support promises until they are able to completely liquidate the inventory they are pushing on their ebay store. Once they have gotten rid of that excessi've inventory - they will quietly end of life the audigy series...then you will not even be able to?pay to get?support. They may try to milk it with the alchemy software, but I think they're realizing the only way folks are going to be?obtaining what they feel like they should not have to pay for - is to steal it...so they won't make much money off the majority of audigy owners there. Sucks, cuz they at least made an (half-assed) attempt at something
It wasn't until folks complained to ebay?that?Creative even bothered to take the vista certified logos off their ads on the ebay store.....surely decepti've to say the least. They are still trying to get 00 bucks for refurbed audigys!!!!
My advice, pawn those things off to someone you don't know or like, and run like hell from Creative's (lack of) support. Think of all the things you could do with the extra time you won't have to spend reading forums or screwing with non-working software!!!!!
Oh about the Ubuntu drivers....wouldn't it be great if creative would?allow?the incredibly?talented programmers out there?an opportunity to write some fully supported open-source drivers/software? Funny thing is, if they hadn't been so adamant about refusing to open up EAX for everyone - it may have seen some support in Vista.....Creative pulled a Sony and shot themselves in the foot big time.

Adobe Flash Standalone Uninstaller does not properly remove 10.1.82.76

Why does the Adobe provided Flash Standalone Uninstaller "uninstall_flash_player.exe, dated 2010-08-16, versioned 10.1.82.76, the same date as Adobe Flash Player ActiveX/Plugin 10.1.82.76, not remove this version properly of the Adobe Flash Player ActiveX/Plugin then?
One must still run the uninstall via MSIEXEC /X [whichever].msi
What is being left behind is at least the two GUIDS in the HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\

Hi, I would read this and then try again.

SB Audigy Drivers Fail

Hi, i've recently installed my sound card drivers after i reformatted my pc, i've done this about 6 times now and evrery time i look to see if the sound device is there after it says 'No Audio Device' any clues?

i think i'm having the same trouble. after i formatted, i had sound for a little while. i tried to install drivers for a cd-rw and BLAM. no cd dri'ves and no sound card. i'v since gotten my cd dri'ves back but still no sound. i haven't got my audigy 2 cd anymore, it broke during a move to school or something.

Can't install any Audigy drivers, bogus er

The error I recieve when trying to install any drivers for my SB audigy is:
"you have previously installed drivers without rebooting. Please reboot and try again"
Obviously I have rebooted enough, and can't install drivers when this error keeps popping up. I googled the error and all of the solutions given there didn't fix it for me. I have uninstalled everything creative, used CleanerCC on my registry, deleted whatever i could find in regedit that had to do with creative, restarted, tried agian, etc, no dice.
I am using Vista x64 and Sound Blaster Audigy (origional), yes it's a dinosaur but i love it

Yes!
I found a couple of creative files, but deleting them didn't do anything, so i deleted my entire appdata/temp folder (application data/temp on xp, %temp% in any case) and restarted, and it worked fine!
Note to any who have this same problem, I am sure I lost a few settings and preferences, but its a new install, but others may want to backup.
Also I had to boot into safe mode to delete them because many of the files were in use.
Thanks!

RC1/RC2 Audigy Drivers are they coming as we

With the release of the October x-fi drivers, does this mean that drivers for our soundblaster audigy cards will be released as well?

I can't see why they won't.
