SB Live 5.1 (SB0060) - various questions, help appreciated

Hi,
I have numerous questions. Hope they aren't too annoying..
. I just installed a new card it's an SB Li've 5..
I think it's SB0060 - the box says "Model SB0060US" and "Product Part No: 70SB006003007" on top. But the bottom says "OuterBox Part No. 06SB02220004". Is this really SB00600?
2. If it's really SB0600, why did the CD not install any DOS drivers? (I was told here that SB0600 is that last card that supports DOS - which is the reason I bought it).
3. Using my old DOSDRV directory from my old SB Li've! Value installation, I was able to get it to work in DOS anyway. Woohoo! But is this actually safe? Is there a legitimate download containing the DOS drivers or should I carry these old files around with me? I'm using "BLASTER=A220 I5 D H5 P330 T6 J200"; is T6 (type 6) the right type for this card?
4. DOS games, e.g. Doom, don't seem to have sound in Windows. Only when I run them in DOS.
5. A leaflet that came with the card suggested uninstalling WDM drivers and installing VXD drivers on Win 98 SE to prevent "performance problems". I heard stuttering and skipping sounds (strange since my CPU is 3.4 GHz) so I installed the VXD drivers like it said. Now, MIDI's seem much quieter than before and I can't get them nearly as loud as MP3's. Changing AudioHQ / Volume sliders or Sound Font didn't seem to help, any ideas?
6. "Device Controls" no longer appears under AudiopHQ. As a result, I can't change the "Max Simultaneous Wav Playback" setting. Any ideas?
7. Is this card better than SB Li've Value!? I couldn't see any improvements right away.
8. This SB0060 did not come with an 8 MB soundbank, but in Sound Font I was able to select an old 8 MB soundbank that came with SB Li've! Value. Shouldn't a better card come with sound fonts at least as good as a previous one?
9. My system hangs when I try to install Li'veWare 3.0. Is this program inapplicable to my new SB0060 card?

FYI..
5. It looks like the VXD drivers lead to quiet MIDI's. So on Win 98 SE, it's EITHER STUTTERING SOUNDS (WDM drivers) or NEARLY SILENT MIDI's (VXD drivers)
Also, this SB0060 card is exhibiting a problem that my CT4830 SB Li've! Value did NOT exhibit - if I'm playing an MP3 file and my system pauses, e.g. when I insert a USB device, the CT4830 used to just pause for a moment if at all. The SB0060 with VXD driver causes nasty clicks and pops and just becomes silent; I have to start playing the MP3 file again to fix the problem
Also I tried installing the drivers that came with my SB Li've! Value on the SB Li've! 5. and they do NOT work!! It looks like SB6 emulation is impossible on the SB0060 card! Now I cannot play many good games like DOOM, DOOM2, HERETIC, WITCHAVEN, DUKE NUKEM 3D, WOLFENSTEIN, etc. in Windows!
Li'veware 3.0 instantly CRASHES; since Creative does not offer any Li'veware drivers on their website any more I will try to track down Li'veware .0 which INCLUDES DOS support. If you know where to get Li'veware .0 please post information here!
Currently I am thinking of going back to my old SB Li've! Value. SB0060 has many problems . Also the software provided with SB0060 is inferior to the combination of SB Li've! Value drivers plus the Li'veware 3.0 upgrade.
It does not help that creative labs has extremely slow response on this website! And Creative labs personnel did NOT warn me about these SB0060 problems!!

  • A few various questions

    Can anyone help me with a few various questions about how to do certain things on the iPhone? Here's my questions:
    - Is there a way to turn off predictive text? I'd like to enter in a phone extension for a contact. I create a new field for the extension number. Then enter in "EXT" but it comes out to "ECT". Also, is there a way to delete that field? Is there a better way to do extensions?
    - How do I hide the keyboard when there isn't an option to hide it? This happens in the Mail settings area.
    - Is there a way to keep the keyboard in all caps just for a single word rather than having to switch to caps for each letter?
    - When I bookmark a website, sometimes the bookmark title is long so I can't see it all. I can click into the field but that puts the cursor at the end of the text string. Is there a way to then scroll left and see all of the words?
    Thanks,
    Brett

    Ok this should be a long one so dig in haha. Ill answer them in the order you asked.
    No, there is no way as of right now to turn off the predictive text feature. You must make sure to cancel the blue suggested word before hitting the space bar.
    There isnt an option to hide the keyboard in any of the applications on iPhone. Im not quite sure what you mean on this one either.
    There is a way to use all caps letters if you have enabled caps lock in the keyboard settings menu and then double tap the icon when typing. It will turn blue when it has been done correctly.
    If you tap and hold your finger on a piece of text, it will pop up a little magnifying glass which can be used to scroll left and right. Its a bit tricky to find the right place on the screen that will make it move though. You will get the hang of it eventually.
    Hope this helps. Enjoy your iPhone!!

    First of all, I would have to say that getting in touch with you is a nightmare and I am not at all happy that I can't just email or live chat with someone who can help!  I am not a technical person, I just want to be able to use Photoshop Elements and get on with it. I bought Photoshop Elements via Amazon some months ago and it worked fine.  I then got a message that advised that the trial version would expire, which it subsequently has (I have been trawling your site for weeks and weeks trying to find an email or phone contact to get some assistance).  Relucltantly, I am now typing this - and I suspect it will not help in the slightest!  I bought the FULL not TRIAL edition of Photoshop Elements and I have contacted Amazon who confirmed this, but say I need to contact you.  Can you please let me know how I can resolve this?  Louise A Fraser

    I think in your situation it would be worth trying the things listed under the event. It does have to do with FRS and it's easy to do. I've used it to fix journal errors after a server unexpectedly restarts and sysvol stops replicating.  I
    could see where it could fix your issue, and if it doesn't, you're out 5 minutes. :)
    The listed registry key does not exist
    Expand HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE. 
    Click down the key path: 
       "System\CurrentControlSet\Services\NtFrs\Parameters" 
    Double click on the value name 
       "Enable Journal Wrap Automatic Restore"

    I forget security question, help me recover?

    You need to ask Apple to reset your security questions; ways of contacting them include phoning AppleCare and asking for the Account Security team, clicking here and picking a method for your country, and filling out and submitting this form.
    They wouldn't be security questions if they could be bypassed without Apple verifying your identity.

  • About Java 2 opaque font color question, help needed!

    About Java 2 opaque font color question, help needed!
    I was trying to test opaque font (the string has a foreground color and a background color), but i can't find the method for doing that.
    i can change foreground by Graphics2D.setPaint(Color.black).
    Anybody know how to change the background of the string?
    Thanks!

    Hi. The way I'd do it would be to use the font metrics to find the length of a string and draw a rectangle and then drawstring over the rectangle. If you want an example, I can post it although I suspect theres a better way.

    If you have a rescue email address set up on your account then you can try going to https://appleid.apple.com/ and click 'Manage your Apple ID' on the right-hand side of that page and log into your account. Then click on 'Password and Security' on the left-hand side of that page and on the right-hand side you might see an option to send security question reset info to your rescue email address.
    If you don't have a rescue email address set up then go to Express Lane  and select 'iTunes' from the list of 'products' in the middle of the screen.
    Then select 'iTunes Store', and on the next screen select 'Account Management'
    Next choose 'iTunes Store Account Security' and fill in that you'd like your security questions/answers reset.
    You should get an email reply within, I think, about 24 to 48 hours (and check your Spam folder as well as your Inbox)

  • HT1212 I am unable to get our of a continuous cycle when trying to update or restore my iPad 2. Plug in to iTunes 12.0.1 (latest version). Click update, told can't update, have to restore. Restore fails with error 9. Any help appreciated.

    When I tried to update my iPad I got an error 9. Now, I am unable to access my iPad. It is in a continuous cycle when I try to update or restore the iPad 2. Plug in to iTunes 12.0.1 (latest version). Click update, told can't update, have to restore. Restore fails with error 9. Any help appreciated.
    Here's the cycle:
    I plug in my iPad when “cable to iTunes shows on iPad screen. It says "Your iPad can't be updated, you must restore it to factory settings." That bad enough news, but it gets worse.
    Click Restore
    Extracting software…
    Preparing iPad for restore
    Waiting for iPad…
    Verifying iPad restore with Apple…
    (empty bar under the Apple logo…does not show any activity)
    “The iPad “iPad” could not be restored. An unknown error occurred (9).”
    Notes: I just upgraded to OS X Yosemite 10.10.1 on my iMac (27-inch, Mid 2011) in the last week. It’s the first time I’m tried to backup/update my iPad since the iMac update.
    I swapped out the USB cable to a new cable and get the same results.
    I also unplugged all other USB devices from the iMac and security on my iPad and still get the same results.
    I find it strange that it shows no Serial number for my my iPad 2 when plugged in. It shows “Serial Number: n/a on the screen when it displays: “iPad Recovery Mode To update your iPad without erasing its contents, click Update. To restore your iPad to its factory settings, click Restore iPad.
    I prefer to update my iPad, but it displays “Your iPad can’t be updated, you must restore it to factory settings. If you previously backed up the iPad, click Restore Backup after the restore process completes.”
    It’s a continuous loop. I get the display on my iPad to plug in the iPad to iTunes, plug it in which ends after going through the above procedure saying an error occurred (9).
    So now I cannot use my iPad. When I turn it on I get the display showing me to plug it into iTunes with the cable. Since this is the only option I have I plug it in and the loop begins.
    Any advice would be appreciated.
    Thanks!

    Hello jaybearden,
    Thanks for the question. After reviewing your post, it sounds like you are not able to restore the iOS device since you get an error 9. I would recommend that you read this article, it may be able to help the issue.
    Resolve iOS update and restore errors - Apple Support
    Check your security software
    Related errors: 2, 4, 6, 9, 1000, 1611, 9006. Sometimes security software can prevent your device from communicating with either the Apple update server or with your device.
    Check your security software and settings to make sure that they aren't preventing a connection to the Apple servers.
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    Have a nice day,

  • I have attempted to upgrade os4 to os7. icloud has taken an old expiered email address for which i do not know the password. It will not recognise my current email and password with itunes.  Any help appreciated

    I have attempted to upgrade os4 to os7. At the end, it threw an error that i had to turn off "Find my iphone" on my phone, which seems to be impossible at that stage as i could not access beyond the upgrade screen.
    I thin chose to set up as new iphone, but icloud has taken an old expired email address for which i do not know the password. icloud will not recognise my current itunes email and password, so i now have os7 but am unable to restore from my itunes back up. 
    Desperately need help please... Any help appreciated
    Thankyou

    If you don't know your password, don't know your security questions and don't have a rescue address or don't receive a reset email, you should contact AppleCare who will initially try to assist you with a reset email or if unsuccessful will pass you to the security team to reset your security questions for you.
    If you are in a region that doesn't have international telephone support try contacting Apple through iTunes Store Support.

  • Urgent help needed.....any help appreciated....

    q, Design and implement a java class called statistics that computes the mean, median, standard deviation. Design and implement a java application called statisticsDriver that generates a list of 50 integers (generated randomly) and prints the statistical measures which are calculated using the Statistis Class. Assume there will be no more then 50 input values. Compute all statical values as floating values.
    The above was the question, and below is what i have done so far for the mean part, but it seems to have errors, any help???
    p.s I am also confused what it means by driver class, and do i have to do individual classes for the different statistical measures....please helppppp !!!!!!!!!!, any help would be appreciated...thanks.
    The class say Mean contains the following method:
    public static double mean(double[] data)
    double sum=0.0;
    for (int index=0; index sum=sum+data[index];
    sum=sum/data.length;
    return sum;
    The driver for this class:
    public static void main(java.lang.String[] args) {
    double[] myData={2,5,4,6,7,13};
    System.out.println("The mean of myData");
    System.out.println(Mena.mean(myData));

    This is my method to work out the mean,median and mode of a set of numbers.
    But what i need to do is find the mean, median and mode from a driver class, which generates a list of random numbers, no more then 50. I don't know where to fit this in my method...please help!!!!!!
    main:
    public static void main(String[] args) {
    int[] mainArray = {2,3,6,6,6};
    //outputArray( "Original Array: ",mainArray );
    System.out.println("average is " + mean( mainArray ));
    System.out.println("median is " + median( mainArray ));
    System.out.println("mode is " + mode( mainArray ));
    //mean
    public static double mean(int[] mainArray) {
    int sum = 0;
    for (int i = 0; i < mainArray.length; i++) {
    sum = sum + mainArray;
    double average = sum / mainArray.length;
    return average;
    //median
    public static int median(int[] mainArray) {
    //double sortList = sort(mainArray);
    final int EVEN_NUMBER_OF_ELEMENTS = 0;
    int result = mainArray.length % 2;
    int median = 0;
    // Definition: Median is the Middle number in an odd number of entries array
    // Median is the avg of the two number in the center of an even number array
    if (result == EVEN_NUMBER_OF_ELEMENTS) {
    int rightNumber = mainArray.length / 2;
    int leftNumber = rightNumber - 1;
    median = (mainArray[rightNumber] + mainArray[leftNumber]) / 2;
    else { // Odd number of items, choose the center one
    int rightNumber = mainArray.length / 2;
    median = mainArray[rightNumber];
    return median;
    //mode
    public static double mode(int[] mainArray)
    int mode = 0;
    int elements = 0;
    int tempMode = mainArray[0];
    int temp = 1;
    int x;
    for( x = 1; x < mainArray.length; x++)
    if(mainArray[x-1] == mainArray[x])
    temp++;
    else
    if(temp > elements)
    tempMode = mainArray[x-1];
    elements = temp;
    temp = 1;
    else
    temp = 1;
    if (temp> elements)
         tempMode = mainArray[x-1];
    mode = tempMode;
    return mode;
    any help appreciated..
