SB X-Fi Notebook reset settings at every reboot

Hi,
Does anyone have an answer to this? Some magic button somewhere?
M

Ok, I'm going by the desktop Fatalty version, but the screeshots look similar so maybe it will help anyway...
If you start from the main screen under entertainment mode, click here:
[img"]http://www.fileden.com/files/2008/2/22/775483/Creative/Main.JPG" alt="">
That will take you to speaker set up. When you get there, click on the drop-down box and select 5. or 7. depending on the speaker setup you have:
<img height="248" src="http://www.fileden.com/files/2008/2/22/775483/Creative/Speakers.JPG" alt="" width="544" style="width: 544px; height: 248px">
(If you also check the "Synchronize with Control Panel" box, then whatever you have selected in THIS screen will also change your PCs speaker settings in your PCs control panel and vice versa. This may make life easier for you.)
Then click the "Main Display" button to the lower left of the display and click the X-Fi CMSS-3D button shown here...
<img height="247" src="http://www.fileden.com/files/2008/2/22/775483/Creative/3D.JPG" alt="" width="544" style="width: 544px; height: 247px">
You should see 5 speakers on the speaker display on the right:
<img height="248" src="http://www.fileden.com/files/2008/2/22/775483/Creative/Surround.JPG" alt="" width="544" style="width: 544px; height: 248px">
Even if there is something wrong with your setup, it should still show 5 speakers as the audio card doesn't detect your set up. Meaning that even if it can't play 5. speakers of surround sound, it will still DISPLAY 5. speakers. This is why I think your speaker settings are?set up wrong.
I hope this helps!

  • Gnome resets all panel settings on every reboot

    Hi guys,
    Ive been running Arch with gnome for a few months now, linux in general for a couple years, and I've come across this issue today.
    Upon starting up the computer, gnome panel is completely reset (my applets and icons are all gone, and in its place is the default setup of the panels on a fresh install).  So i thought this was odd, reconfigured it to how i like it, and on next restart, its back to default again.
    If there is any log files or conf's that may be helpful to you smart folks, please let me know ill supply them.
    Thanks!

    Thanks for taking a stab,
    I checked the permissions and i own everything in ~/.gconf
    Today as i booted up, the panels didnt go their defaults, but actually disappeared!.  the bottom panel is gone, and the top panel is shrunk to just the gnome menu.  When i right click and go to the properties, it does say "these properties are locked down"... however my user name is the owner of conf files.
    How is it possible that I'm getting random settings for the panels on every reboot?

  • Server stucks at Applying Computer Settings after every reboot

    Hello!
    On one of our sites containing around 15 servers, whenever a terminal server is rebooted, it gets stuck on Applying Computer Settings for around 15 minutes. If it is un-joined from the domain then no issue. Moreover, once it is done with this delay, no time
    delay is observed in user login. But after every reboot, 15 - 20 mins delay is always observed. Domain is the same at other sites and no issue is being observed else where.

    Hi,
    Thank you for posting in Windows Server forum.
    In addition, for a test please try to modify the behavior of HTTP.SYS to depend on another service being started first. To do this, perform the following steps: 
    1. Open Registry Editor
    2. Navigate to HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\HTTP and create the following Multi-string value:
    DependOnService
    3.  Double click the new DependOnService entry
    4. Type CRYPTSVC in the Value Data field and click OK.
    5. Reboot the server
    NOTE: Please ensure that you make a backup of the registry / affected keys before making any changes to your system.

  • [solved'ish] volume levels reset to max every reboot...

    hi, i have done some reading and alsa-store and alsa-restore and meant to run at startup and shutdown, obviously to store and resume alsa level settings, but every boot my levels are at max.... i have alsa-utils installed incase anyone asks.
    Last edited by ninjaprawn (2012-11-23 16:02:14)

    just trying to work through this issue myself... ran systemctl --all to see if I could see anything "odd" and found this;
    alsa-restore.service loaded inactive dead Restore Sound Card State
    alsa-store.service loaded inactive dead Store Sound Card State
    I can understand the restore being dead, but surely store should be "waiting"? i will do some more playing... hopefully post a solution incase anyone else has this issue...
    EDIT - in fact scrap that idea.... just checked the following;
    systemctl show -p WantedBy alsa-store
    WantedBy=shutdown.target
    obviously, store is only meant to come alive at shutdown.... so either shutdown isnt starting it, or the service is failing..... more digging required....

  • Firewall resets rules on every reboot

    Hello folks!
    Not so long time ago, I had a problem with my FW, which I solved by flushing the rules from the console - solved my issue temporarily.
    Whether the FW is turn on or off, when I run nmap, it renders all my running services as being 'filtered'. So, what I do on every reboot is to first start the console and run the ipfw flush, in order to fix this - on every reboot.
    Once again - the state of the FW is of no difference.
    No third party FW app running, such as waterroof etc; everything updated. Haven't played with the kext files, basically absolutely nothing. Cant remember the last time I installed something new - I am just using it as it is and found out about this when a need arose to access my stuff remotely, as well as sharing in an ethernet network.
    Hope someone can see why s this happening. Thank you for reading.

    The problem was solved.
    What happened is that my iPhoto Folder is located on an external hard drive, nad it seems that by the time the computer OS X loads the external hard Drive is not running yet (differentely from the previous OS version).
    To solve the problem, I copied the picture I wanted to use as background into my local hard drive, and then I loaded it as background !
    Thanks for the help.

  • Have to reset PRAM on every reboot. Help

    Hello,
    I have a new to me Mac Pro 3,1. I did a fresh install of Yosemite. I'm having a big issue. Every time I restart the machine, it boots to a blank grey screen. Then I have to reset the pram and it boots into the OS X Utility. When I select the correct partition it boots correctly.
    Everything operates correctly when it's booted up. I'm going to replace the system battery to see if that's why it's not holding the information.
    The hard drive does pass smart status.
    Any ideas? I'm out of ideas.
    Thanks,

    Have you set the startup disk in Startup Disk preferences? Give that a try.
    Mac OS X- Gray screen appears during startup
    That it sometimes boots into the Recovery HD suggests there is a problem with the system installation on the startup volume. Perhaps you might consider erasing the drive and reinstalling from scratch and remove everything that came from the previous owner. This is something you should do.
    Install OS X Using Internet Recovery
    Be sure you backup your files to an external drive or second internal drive because the following procedure will remove everything from the hard drive.
    Boot to the Internet Recovery HD:
    Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND-OPTION- R keys until a globe appears on the screen. Wait patiently - 15-20 minutes - until the Recovery main menu appears.
    Partition and Format the hard drive:
    Select Disk Utility from the main menu and click on the Continue button.
    After DU loads select your newly installed hard drive (this is the entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list. Click on the Partition tab in the DU main window.
    Under the Volume Scheme heading set the number of partitions from the drop down menu to one. Click on the Options button, set the partition scheme to GUID then click on the OK button. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Partition button and wait until the process has completed. Quit DU and return to the main menu.
    Reinstall OS X: Select Reinstall OS X and click on the Install button. Be sure to select the correct drive to use if you have more than one.
    Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible because it is three times faster than wireless.
    This should restore the version of OS X originally pre-installed on the computer.

  • OS X losses many settings after every reboot

    I have a macbook pro running 10.4.11 recently I have noticed that when I reboot many setting which were previously remembered are reset. Examples include the default applications (I use the program default apps), Endnote and iphoto think they have never been opened before and have lost all their recently opened files etc. Does anybody know where these settings are stored or why I'm losing them?
    Thanks

    Hi scobbie, and a warm welcome to the forums!
    Endnote and iphoto think they have never been opened before and have lost all their recently opened files etc...
    That part is really confusing, how could they possibly lose what they never had???
    Let's start with Applejack...
    http://www.versiontracker.com/dyn/moreinfo/macosx/19596
    http://www.macupdate.com/info.php/id/15667
    After installing, Reboot holding down CMD+s, (+s), then when the DOS like prompt shows, type in...
    applejack AUTO
    Then let it do all 5 of it's things.
    The 5 things it does are...
    Correct any Disk problems.
    Repair Permissions.
    Clear out Cache Files.
    Repair/check several plist files.
    Dump the VM files for a fresh start.
    At least if it doesn't fix it, it'll eliminate a few questions.
    Report outcome please.

  • Photoshop Workspace Settings Lost Every Reboot

    If Photoshop crashes, or if I restart my computer, my workspace settings are set back to default. Actions specifically, though other settings seem impacted intermittently. Add-ons (purchased actions) disappear. Any ideas would be appreciated.
    On an aside, the removal of the 'oil paint' filter from CS6 to CC is really disappointing.
    Thank you.

  • When dual-booting with Windows 7, Mac OSX time settings reset every reboot.

    I have recently installed Windows 7 Professional on my mid 2010 MacBook Pro via BootCamp (Running Mavericks BTW). Everything runs grean and have not experienced any problems on the Windows side, but I have a problem with Mac OSX now. When I am using Windows 7, and I reboot into Mac OSX, I find that my time settings are wrong. It seems like my time zone has changed, because the date is correct, as well as the minutes, but the hour is always wrong. When I go to Date & Time in System Preferences, and my time zone is correct, but I still have to chage the hour in the time. Any ideas as to why this is happening and how to stop it would be greatly appreciated.

    If you dual boot your Windows PC with OS X or Linux, you may have experienced a problem in which your clocks reset themselves incorrectly every time you boot into Windows. Here's a simple registry edit to fix that.
    Essentially, the incorrect clock setting happens because OS X and Linux use GMT time while Windows tries to synchronize with your local time zone, getting confused when you reboot between the two. Apple's own Boot Camp drivers for Windows are supposed to fix this problem, though some users have noticed that it still happens even with the drivers installed, and some Linux users are left out in the cold. Furthermore, if you have a Hackintosh, you can't install the Boot Camp drivers, so you'll need to find another way around the problem.
    To fix it, just hit Start and type regedit.exe in the search box. Hit Enter and navigate to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\TimeZoneInformation. Right click anywhere in the right pane and hit New > DWORD (32-bit) Value. Name it RealTimeIsUniversal, then double click on it and give it a value of 1.
    Lastly, reboot into OS X, then reboot back into Windows. You should now notice that your clock actually displays the correct time.

  • Ipod touch 4g have to reset network connection every 5-10 minutes.

    I recently had to exchange my iPod touch for a new one because of damage.  Now the new one will not stay connected to any wi-fi signal.  the signal strength indicator stays up showing good signal strength, but after a few minutes any apps or safari state that there is no internet connection.  If I reset network connections in the "settings" menu, it will work for a few minutes, but I don't have time or patience to reset the connection every few minutes.  I have the latest iOS update, Itunes update.  This is an issue at home, work or public wi-fi spot that I have tested it in. 
    The previous ipod worked great, with no issues, just damaged after less than three weeks old.

    - First restore from backup.
    - If problem persists then restore to factory defaults/new iPod
    - If you still have the problem then it is likely due to a hardware problem and an appoinent at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • Synaptics Touchpad Tap Scroll settings changed back to defaults on every reboot. Windows 10

    After the Windows 10 upgrade my Synaptics Touchpad setings seem to be reset to factory defaults on every reboot.  I go in and change to deselect Tap and Scroll gesture options, save, and everything works as expected.  If I reboot my pc... all of my changes are erased. I go to Start >Settings > Mouse and Touchpad > Additional Mouse Options > Device Settings > Settings Right after boot:  MultiFinger Gestures (selected)  Scrolling (deselected)  Tapping (selected)  Buttons (selected) After change manually and saved:
      MultiFinger Gestures (deselected)  Scrolling (deselected)  Tapping (deselected)  Buttons (selected) Rebooted again... and back to initial defaults (Arg!!!)  Can anyone suggest a fix?

    Hello! I just wanted to share a solution to this issue. I've been having this issue ever since I started the Windows 10 insider program so it's sad that Microsoft didn't fix it before release. Anyway let's get started! The first thing you will want to do is uninstall the Synaptics Driver. Right click on the start button and click programs and features. Find the Synaptics Pointing Device Driver and uninstall it. You will eventually need to restart your PC but do not do that yet otherwise it will just reinstall itself. Next your going to want to Hide the update from Windows Update. To do this on Windows 10 you need to download a tool which can be found here. https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/3073930 Run the tool it will begin detecting problems and searching for updates. You will get two options, Hide Updates or Show hidden updates. Click on Hide updates and on the list you will see the Synaptics Driver, place a checkmark on it and then click next. Let the wizard finish and you've successfully hidden the Synaptics pointing device driver. Next open settings and click on Update & security, click recovery on your left, and then click restart now under advanced startup. Next click on troubleshoot. Then at the choose an option screen, click advanced options, click on startup settings, and click restart. Once your computer restarts you'll see startup settings. Press the number 7 to disable driver signature enforcement. Your computer will now boot up. Login and open your web browser and go to this link http://www.synaptics.com/en/drivers.php Download the latest synaptic's driver for Windows 8 and install it. Once installed, you maybe prompted to reboot so go ahead and reboot the computer. After that, go into your mouse settings and configure your touchpad to your liking. You will not have to worry about losing your settings after restarting the pc anymore. I suggest keeping the tool that allows you to hide or show hidden updates as it is quite handy. 
    Summary:  
    1.) Uninstall the Synaptics Driver 
    2.) Hide the Driver Update for Synaptics using this tool: https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/3073930  
    3.) Go to Settings, Update & security, recovery, advanced start [restart now] 
    4.) Click troubleshoot, advanced options, startup settings [restart now] 
    5.) Press the number 7 to disable driver signature enforcement 
    6.) Download the latest synaptic's driver for Windows 8 from the website. http://www.synaptics.com/en/drivers.php 
    7.) Reboot the computer if necessary. 
    8.) Configure your mouse settings to your liking.

    You flash the bios using the tool found in the downloads here on the forums and the file from msi. You format a usb using fat32 then run the program. Boot from that usb and it will flash the bios. You never want to update a bios from windows.
    Memtest 86+ is a bootable program that will test your ram.
    Just google it and you will find it, you can run it either from a usb or cd.
    Just to get your problem straight from what I saw in the video, when you hit power it get stucks for abit in bios probably have a code on the bottom right of your screen a2, then bios passes and you get a warning something to the effect of no bootable device detected right? If that is correct you may just be able to boot from the windows dvd / usb and reload and all will be fine so long as your ssd is being dectected.
    Flashed to 11.11. I'll test with Memtest 86+ in a minute.

    I am unable to connect wifi on my phone 4s since last 2 weeks... I am living in shanghai and did not have this issue since 2 weeks... iPad works fine... Please suggest some measures... Tried the on off reset settings etc. but no luck ...
    In fact after updating the software to the latest version I am having more of this... Sometimes the wifi button freezes an I can't even slide it to on / off...
    Thanks

    Noooo! Actually I too had d same prob wit my iPhone 4S. When I connect to my wifi network it won't get connected or it wil be grey scaled! I took it to d istore and since I had warranty they replaced my IPhone. It iPad charger has high volt than ur iPhone charger so when u connect wit it, there is a chance where large amount of current passes thru ur iPhone. So for sure it wil damage ur motherboard and its parts! Many said that iOS 6 or 6.0.1 or 6.1 was d reason for tis wifi prob! But apple never made its mistake wit it's software. If and only if u hav hardware prob u wil hav these sort of wifi prob Bluetooth prob! So best way s to replace ur iPhone!

    I am having some huge problems with my colorspace settings. Every time I upload my raw files from my Canon 5D mark II or 6D the pics are perfect in color. That includes the back of my camera, the pic viewer on my macbook pro, and previews. They even look normal when I first open them in photoshop. I will edit, save, and then realize once i've sent it to myself to test the color is WAY off. This only happens in photoshop. I've read some forums and have tried different things, but it seems to be making it worse. PLEASE HELP! Even viewing the saved image on the mac's pic viewer is way off once i've edited in photoshop. I am having to adjust all my colors by emailing myself to test. Its just getting ridiculous.

    Check the color space in camera raw, the options are in the link at the bottom of the dialog box. Then when saving make sure you save it to the srgb color space when sending to others. Not all programs understand color space and or will default to srgb. That won't necessarily mean it will be accurate, but it will put it in the ballpark. Using save for web will use the srgb color space.
