X-FI, No sound in rear and center speakers

Hi. I got a problem. I don't know what can I do more but after some combinations I can't get sound from rear speakers and center. I have X-Fi Gamer (SB0730) and it's connected to DTT2200. It's running on Windows 7 x32. Any Ideas what?can be the?problem?

Anyone?

Troubles with rear and center speakers (5

Hello. I just purchased a Creative X-Fi XtremeGamer Fatalty Professional sound card and installed it. I have 5. surround speakers (Logitech X-540) and during the speaker connection wizard, I only hear front left and front right and it is coming through all of the channels. When it tests center and rear left/right, I hear nothing. I have been searching the knowledge base as well as this forum and I cannot seem to find a solution to this problem. I have my speakers all connected properly as per the connection wizard. The sound is coming through all channels when I play music in Winamp and it also sounds a little poor. I am using Windows XP SP2 and my specs are:
AMD Athlon X2 4200+
3GB DDR 400 RAM
ATI Radeon HD3850
Help is appreciated! Thank you.

Try adjusting the volumes for each channel. You can do this via "Control Panel", "Sounds and Audio Devices", "Speaker Volume...". You should see individual volume sliders for Left, Right, Channels 3-8. I had similar problem and found out that for some reason the channels 3-8 volumes were set to minimum. Good luck.

X-Fi,Only rear and side speakers distored, front 2 ok! he

I'm running Vista 32 bit. when It's set to 5. the sound coming from the rear and sides is bad, distorted, I tried moving card to differant slot, reloaded drivers and new speakers. No change at all. The 2 center speakers always sound fine.
Has anyone heard of this problem or better yet how to fix it!
MSI-P6N sli platinum MB
3 gig ram
Intel? Core?2 Duo E6600
Creative Sound Blaster? X-Fi? series music? part number is SB0460, the box says "extreme music"

CBy the way, ?this card totally works and sounds excellent when installed in an older mb built for amd athlon 3000 cpu.
I am hoping that someone from Creative will answer my question here as I can not find a phone number for technical support on the web site.
Thanks,

Rear and center channels not working

I just got a Griffin Fire Wave for my iMac and it works great when playing DVDs and such. But when I'm mixing in STP2 I pan the surround to the rear and I don't hear anything, I did a test to see if it exported in 5.1 and it did, I could hear all channels. But its frustrating not being able to monitor the
Ls Rs and C channels. Any Ideas?

Its definedly the soundcard which makes the funny noise, I just tested the outputs with headphones. Its really funny thing that center channel works perfectly if rear channel plug is disconnected, but you plug the rear channel plug it mixes up with the center channel also.
I just want to be sure before I send it to supplier (warranty is still good), because if it works on their computer they will charge me for 50? for the checking.

Sound Blaster X-Fi - Enabling Creative Multispeaker Surround (CMSS)
The following information are abstracted from our Knowledgebase on CMSS. Please check the case relevant to your sound card below. You can also access the article on directly from the URL below.
Knowledgebase article SID4788
If you are listening to stereo content like MP3's or CD's and you would like the sound to be played over your surround sound speaker system, you can enable CMSS 3D on your X-Fi card. If you are playing computer games, the X-Fi's Virtual 3D via CMSS gives a highly realistic surround sound over headphones.
It is important to remember that if you do wish to play a 5. encoded file like Dolby or DTS soundtracks, you will need to turn CMSS off. Otherwise you might not receive each discreet channel.
Please select the mode: (More information about changing the Mode).

Audigy 2 with THX550 set, Sound Problems, Rear and Center Speak

Hi there !
Got a problem, everything worked fine before.
Same p.c. just an old and tired Windows 2000 Prof installation, moved to a new house, same computer, reinstalled everything with Windows XP Professional, and now.. my center speaker barely makes sound, my rear speakers.. the same. front 2 speakers blast with sound.
Changed the wiring, no effect.
Changed the settings, no effect.
Changed all the software, no effect.
I am lost for solutions.. does anyone know what is going on ?
The only thing i can come up with is that the volume for the center speaker and 2 rear speakers is not set right.. however in the software everything is set correctly.. even full power to the rear speakers wont increase their volume.
It also seems that the sound for the rear speakers is actually also coming from the front speakers.. real strange..
Anyone? PLZ!!!
Greetz,

@MrClueLess
The settings are synchronised, everything is set right. I cant find anything wrong with it, using the latest version of drivers, software etc. I have no other sound sources connected on my pc other the my webcam.
a complete new fresh install of everything when i moved in where i am living now.
Only things different from previous setup is that a Hauppage TV card was removed, added a Logitech webcam with Microphone.
Already disconnected the webcam, no effect
Its really bugging me because this setup from the creative stuff makes good sound, now suddenly i cant even watch a dvd anymore, simply because i cant hear the people talk.. the center speaker just wont increase its volume (like the rear ones).

T7700 only left and right speakers working

I bought my speakers awhile ago, and I had no problems. Though I couldn't get my rear and side speakers to work, I found out by changing the speaker settings in the control panel. Now, my rear and side speakers don't work unless I reinstall the drivers. I checked the speakers setting in the Creative Volume Control and it says its 7.1, though my side and rear still dont work, it also says its 7.1 in the control panel. I am tired of reinstalling my drivers just to get my speakers to work properly. I have checked all wiring and it seems okay. When I run the speaker test, I hear sounds from all speakers. Diagnostics are all good but I can't seem to find the problem. I've also tried reinstalling my sound card but it seems to do nothing. Also when I reinstall my drivers and it shows the "restart your computer" prompt and I click "restart computer" it will freeze and I will have to revert to shutting it down improperly, sometimes it will freeze and sometimes it won't, this maybe the problem. PLEASE I REALLY NEED HELP. Thanks in advance.
-also I have a Sound Blaster Audigy 2 ZS Gamer and Windows XP

Immortaltechniq,
I think you may have a conflict with your card and the system. I would suggest that you cleansweep the card out, and then move the card to a different PCI slot. Once there reinstall the card making sure that your Antivirus is disabled during the process. Here are instructions on how to cleansweep:

No sound from Front and Rear Center Speakers

Hi all,
I have a Creative 6.1 6700 speaker set + Creative Sound blaster Audigy 2 ZS.
Recently I have noticed that I am not getting any sound from my Front and Rear center speakers. The sound is being diverted to the sub woofer. Wehn i run checks the sound comes from the sub woofer rather then the speaker. I have checked all connection and checked all wiring. All Speaker are working fine and none is dead.
I have uninstalled and reinstalled the drivers and then application but still no good. I am unable to figure out why this might be happening. Any help is greatly appreciated.
Also any idea why does the creative driver keep on crashing. It is one of the most unstable driver that I have seen. I have the latest driver and usually keep it up to date but still it does keeps on giving problems regularly.
I have to say that till now the creative product has been a headache for me but I would have to make do with what I have. So all help needed here really.
Regards,
Amit

Hi Guys,
I would really appreciate if somebody could reply to my query. Its been very frustating here.
In the meanwhile I have done the following troubleshooting more :
1) Took a head set and connected to all ports at the back of the sound card. Sound is coming from there.
2) Went ahead and removed the creative drive and the application.
3) did a search in the registry with the keyword as "Creative". Removed all entries that were found.
4) Reinstaled the latest drivers and the application.
5) Tried he card ina different PCI slot.
But everything has been to no avail. There is still no sound from the rear and front center speakers. Its really driving me nuts.
It seems as if the souncard is passing the signal to the sub woofer but it is not directing it to both these channels.
Any help would be deeply appreciated.
Regards,
Amit

My center and side speakers are not working with my gigaworks 7.1 with a sb live 5.1 soundcard?

There doesnt seem to be any sound coming out of my center and side speakers. I have an sb live 5. sound card. Pls help.
Thank you.
I have tried changing the setting the settings to 5.1 on my speaker creative panel and upmixing to 7.1 but no luck.

hyper-dood,
Make sure you have enable CMSS in playcenter for the sound card. Next, check that the upmix function in the speaker volume control pod and set to 5.1->7.1 upmix.

7.1 speakers and center speaker identification

I am trying to set up my speaker system again after moving despite the difference of wattage between the two front speakers and the center speakers I can not tell them apart for proper speaker configuration. How can I tell the difference between the 20 watt center speaker and the 8 watt front speakers?

If you have an nForce 2 motherboard with nForce audio it'll only support 5.1 channel output.
The T7900s come with a cable which has 3 jacks which go into your soundcard and 4 jacks which goes into the T7900s. I think you've the 4 ends which go into your speakers the wrong way around. Try connecting them differently.

I bought a mic for my ipod touch 2nd gen and the mic works yet when its plugged in the speakers dont work, meaning i cant hear, so skype and other similar apps are un-useable, is there a way in which the mic and speakers will both work together?

I bought a mic for my ipod touch 2nd gen and the mic works yet when its plugged in the speakers dont work, meaning i cant hear, so skype and other similar apps are un-useable, is there a way in which the mic and speakers will both work together?

Looking at the details for this mic, it appears that the app has to have the option to use the internal specak when a mic is plugged into the headphone jack. Specifically:
NOTE: When MityMic is plugged into your iPod/iPhone you won’t be able to use the onboard speaker for sound output. You must remove the MityMic then play back your recordings. (The Skype app has an option to enable the onboard speaker even when the mic is plugged in, so you could use MityMic for placing Skype calls. However most other apps do not have this function.)

Side, back, and center speaker on inspire p7800 not working, PLEASE HELP!

I have had the inspire p7800 speakers for awhile, and they worked great, the sound was really great. Then a little while ago, the side, back, and center speaker stopped working. If i turn the volume up, i can hear a kind of static noise in them, but when i play a game or listen to music they don't do anything. i have an Audigy 2 zs sound card, and i just installed all the creative mediasource software. I was using the speakers fine without the software, but i read on a different post, that you can turn on cmss in the EAX control panel. i installed all the stuff, but i can't find the EAX console anywhere on my computer. all the mediasource is is a music player, and a file converter. The speakers stopped working about a week before this, and i unplugged everything and repluged it. After that the center speaker didn't work, but the others did. but now only the front left, and front right speakers work. Please help me with this problem.

I just got the speaker system in today and was trying to set it up, I plugged all the wires in all the right places and the system would not power up. I saw the light for the wired remote flash just once. I thought it was? a power malfunction so I got a different power cord and tried it out, but still nothing...could somebody please help me. Thanks in advance.
If it doesn't power up then it's either the subwoofer or power adaptor that's faulty. So the only thing you can do is contact customer support or the vendor.

How to Enable Headphone/Mic and External Speakers at On

Hey!?Just bought the Sound Blaster X-Fi XtremeGamer Fatalty Professional card to put in a new system I'm building. I wanted to use this instead of the one that had the 5.25" dri've bay connection because my PC's front panel closes over those bays and would render them useless during most of its operation. I was really disappointed that there wasn't an optical or co-ax digital out from the rear. I went to look at some adapters; unfortunately for me, those would all have to be connected to the Microphone input. That's unacceptable, since I'm an avid gamer and our voip is pretty much a necessity at all times. I like the sound, but the fact that I can't easily switch from speaker output to headphone/microphone is really causing me problems. I wish there was an adapter for that AD link in the back, would make things much easier. I know there's an accessory that may help; the I/O console. Just a bit spendy ($70 or so)?for basically adding the ability to the card I purchased to run my speakers and headset conveniently. Currently I connect my headset to the analog ports of the onboard sound, and my speakers and receiver through the optical port. This lets me instantly decrease the speaker volume when I get wife-aggro, while at the same time allowing me to communicate via the headset mic either with the speakers over my head or around my neck. Any suggestions for a similar arrangement with the Fatalty X-Fi card?Thanks!

Is there a way possibly to connect a tower's front panel audio to the card? That would solve quite a bit, with the audio and mic inputs there. Sorry if this is a newby question, would like to prevent repackaging the card and returning it...
