Some huge major problem on this sound card X-Fi Fatal1ty with Gigaworks S75

I done a clean reformat on my computer last night, so i slot in my Fatalty sound card and fix in the internal I/O dri've into my CPU. After that i done a clean installation on the sound card driver program. When i have done so, i plug in my speaker " Creative Gigaworks S750 ". I connect the 4 connector "gray, orange, black and green" to their connector at the subwoofer, and connect the other 3 "orange, green, black" to the sound card, but left one more optional connector left which is gray, so i didnt connect the gray one. After that, i boot up my computer and run the "Creative Speaker Connection Wizard", however i only notices only 5 of my speakers works. The other 2 doesnt.......so i thought it might be a fault with my speakers, so i switch the rear to side speakers, but it still stay the same problem....i try all other speakers as well.....and i found out that my Gigaworks doesnt have any problem, but how come my gigaworks speakers couldnt work with Fatality? I mean how come only 5 speakers got sound while other 2 doesnt? Could it be, i set the settings wrong in the X-Fi Creative console? I need serious help....i heard of good previews on this sound card...so i do really hope there will be a solution to fix this for me...thanks alot.....any help will be deeply appreciated.. need replys from you guys as soon as possbile.

I believe it is the spare connector you left unplugged. Do you have the cable that came with the speakers? Should have a 3-mini jack connections on one side, and 4-mini jack connections on the other? Creative uses a 4-pole mini jack to add the side speakers to the rear and center/sub jacks on the soundcard. The 3 to 4 ended cable should allow you to connect properly

I have used Pages 09 and Keynote without any major problems until this new update. I have read many of the fixes but have a problem. When you get Pages 09 and Keynote back, Apples continues to want to update the 09 system. So it stays updated.

When you get Pages 09 and Keynote back, Apples continues to want to update the 09 system. So it stays updated. I have had to turn off my auto updating that was nice but I'll do it one at a time in order to keep the Pages 09 and Keynote. When something works don't mess with it. Any fixes out there?

I can't say that I have had a problem playing videos in Flash because I could always play them in browsers other than Firefox.
In Firefox Tools>options>Advanced Hardware acceleration is turned on.
I don't know if that is different that tuning it off and on in Flash or not, but for now it is a moot point.
As I stated in my previous message, after following all earlier suggestions/instructions nothing helped. But The latest one, someone suggested that maybe version 17 of Flash might be a stable version.
I made no other changes except to install it, a few days ago, and so far so good.
Many thanks for your help,

"A How-To" on the steps to FIX the Problem of NO Sound Card DETECTION with AUDIGY 2 and Win XP

Note#: When restarting the PC each time, shut off the main power switch on the Power Supply then back on.
Note#2: You will need the Windows XP CD WITH the SP2 on it or have the download SP2 Install file from MS on your PC. I have it on CD.
. Remove the sound Card
2. Use the Removal/Un-installation Procedures for the drivers in Knowledge Base Under Windows XP Step by step. Restart to get all the files deleted in the Creative folder if necessary.
Here is the (Solution ID#) for the Uninstallaion found in the Creative.com Knowledge Base: SID72 "How to uninstall Sound Blaster drivers and applications?"
Alternati'vely, Click on the Sound Blaster Picture Box under the Knowledge Base Main Search Page and the article should be in the resulting list.
3. Use the DCProSetup_.exe from http://files.trunetworks.com/utilities/
Use it carefully Selecting [Creative] then Check the box for Muntiple Cleaning Filters, and remove the Creative Audio Drivers by Clicking on Start.
4. Go into the Registry by Typing Regedit in the Start>Run.. Menu
Navigate and remove the Entry for CTCMSGo.exe, it is running in the back ground otherwise and i believe it interrupts the re-installation of MediaSource Files.
HKEY_CURRENT USER\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run
The file link/tag, it will be on the right half of the screen, Delete it. CTCMSGo.exe=(Creative Technologies Media Source Go)
5. Restart the PC, dont forget to switch Power Supply to off while powered down and on before powering back up.
6.Go to the Win XP SP2 CD or the file downloaded, select re-install but choose UPDATE, not New Installation. Let the Install run and update your pc, this procedure has no data loss or settings changes in Windows.
7. Restart PC
8. Turn off PC and install the Audigy 2 Card. Then turn on the PC. At this point you might get a plxcore.plx Error of file missing. Not to worry.. copy the file from within the Creative Drivers CD and paste it into the Creative Folder In C:\Program Files\Creative
The Knowledge base Article on the steps is: SID287 "Error: Program could not load because Plxcore.plx cannot be found"
9. Power up and see if you get PCI Device, and Audio Controller Detetion. If you dont then do the following:
A) Remove the Sound Card and Re-install the Win XP SP2 Update a number of times ( I did this about 5 times until detection) Each time restart and install the Sound Card into any of the empty PCI Ports until detection.
If that does not work after a number of times try the following:
B)Power off and switch the PCI slot of the Sound Card (to all the PCI slots if necessary with complete power off each time) Without Re-installing XP SP2 Update.
0. After you get Detection, The Windows Auto Installer for Drivers will pop up..select Find Drivers Automatically, then Install then install the drivers it finds. It will put in some basic Audigy Drivers from the CD or online i'm not sure where it gets them from. Keep your Driver CD in the CD Dri've.
.Restart the PC, then install the Drivers and Media Source Files from the CD (it may not all get installed and may give an error and you have to shut down and re-install the drivers and Media Source over again and over again so it fills in the gap of missing files/drivers until it all works without deleting the previously installed parts).
2. Only install this update from the File/ Downloads Section on the Creative website: EAX4DRV_AUDIGY2__84_50.exe Dated 29 July 04. The new beta one that was released is what started all my troubles, so plz i urge you to wait for it to be official.. unless you really want to test it out at your risk.
And there you have it.. in 8 Hours and some ideas from friends and relati'ves concerning detection problems of other hard ware they have had i decided to play Roulette all night and this combo works. I had to play Roulette switching the PCI slots (5 of them), and then towards the end play Roulette with the Creative Driver CD install... until they all work perfectly. WHEW!!!
Notice: I hope if you are really ticked off at having no sounds and want to try this at your own risk and responsiblity go ahead, and I wish you luck. None of the proedures are too out of the ordinary. I dont know if it will work for you but it worked for me and maybe it will possibly for other similar Sound Cards as well.. like ZS or Li've! etc. with similar problems. Happy Sound Blasting!!!

Thanks for pointing that out, it was not apparent on the day i used them and wrote the How-To. The links have been replaced with the SID# (Solution ID #) and the title given for the Article.

IPod problem - does this sound like a hardware or software issue?

My iPod (80/video) sometimes plays but without sound. In other words, the time counter progresses, but there is no volume. It is very intermittent, but annoying nonetheless, because I need to restart the ipod to get sound again.
I've had it back to Apple twice, and they were not able to reproduce the problem.
Now, after spending a lot more time playing with it, I know how to reproduce the problem.
This is when it happens:
1. Pause iPod
2. Remove headphones
3. Let ipod turn off by itself
4. Reinsert headphones / play ipod
When I turn it back on again, there is no sound from the headphones and I need to restart it.
So, the normal scenario is that I get to work, pause my ipod, remove the headphones and plug them into my laptop, letting the ipod turn off by itself after a few mintues. When I go to leave again and plug my headphones back in.... no sound.
It happens with any music file or video file.
Now, if this is a software/firmware problem, then I will patiently work around it. But if it might be a hardware issue, then I will send it back again, especially now that I know how to reproduce the problem reliably.
Of course, I've restored the iPod many times and have tried it on different computers with many audio and video files. The problem persists.
Any thoughts?
Thanks.

I have the same problem (sort of). I used to think I was losing the sound output, until I notice that the iPod errouneously and randomly turned the volume down to zero. Since this occurs while I'm driving with the cassette adapter and plug-in power adapter in use, nothing is touching the face of the iPod.
Now for the bad part. It is now starting to go the other way. I'll be happily listening to the iPod when it suddenly pegs to 100% volume. Sometimes it jumps around - up, down and then to zero.
I sent my 5th gen 60 gig iPod in for servicing. I got it back yesterday with no repairs and it has already started pegging at 100%. If this isn't a problem with the iPod (according to Apple) then there is a MAJOR software bug that needs to be addressed. I don't like getting "shined on" by Apple just because they didn't reproduce the problem during their half hour of troubleshooting.

Problem vith T61 sound card not regocnized with Windows 7 ultimate

When I try to Install SoundMax, I get the dreaded "The audio driver files do not support your computer hardware" error
I have found other threads with Windows XP but haven't found any with Windows 7
Is there a way to force to install these drivers? or can it be accounted as hardware error?
Windows itself also does not recognize the sound card in any way.
All the updates have been performed and absolutely no hint of available sound card. (Except fot the bluetooth external audio controller)

http://www-307.ibm.com/pc/support/site.wss/document.do?sitestyle=lenovo&lndocid=MIGR-73568
is this the driver that you're trying to install? does your sound device show up in device manager? is there a yellow tag on it? if this is the one you're trying to install and it won't did you try to manually update the driver from device manager. don't let windows find the driver. point the update to the folder where the driver is.

[SOLVED] Multiple sound cards don't work with Arch

Before you post, make sure you do not list any of these programs that I should use, to configure everything:
alsamixer
alsaconf
kmix
xfce4-mixer
edit: I need to specify what my default sound device is as I have 2 different sound cards, a Logitech ClearChat Comfort, and a TurtleBeach AK-R8.

I use Windows for gaming (in virtualbox) on America's Army, so good audio is a must when you play against the best.
The reason I state that is because those lack the features I need. I am trying to find gnome-sound-properties and since I needed sound working very fast, and a distro that already has it installed, I am currently on Ubuntu (please do not harass me or insult me about this as I hate it very much and I need to get back to software development) since all I need to do is go to System > Preferences > Sound. Is a picture of what I am looking for:

I have never used my mac for desktop publishing before and am having some problems. This sounds really dumb, but I can't figure out how to put a border around a text box. Also, how do you edit the border, i.e. border color, thickness, etc. Help!

I have never used my mac for desktop publishing before and am running into some real problems. How do you put a border around a text box? Can you edit the border - color, thickness, etc.? Help!

I think the best solution is to read Pages documentation, go to Help and you have a long list of options. Pages is capable of quite sophisticated things, some features are above Nisus or Mellel, so it is not so simple to summarize things in a few lines.

Problems locating the Sound Card on the Compu

Creative Sound Blaster li've was accidentaly removed and uninstalled on my computer through Add/Remove programs. Now realizing that I get no sound in any of my speakers for anything, I found the CD for SoundBlaster and installed in back in. I ran diagnostics and everything came up clean. But when I run the Speaker Test I get nothing. I still have absolutley no sound. Then I searched the internet and tried many ways to solve this problem and once a box popped up and said that it couldn't locate an audio card. Please help me.

Which card is it exactly? Check in Device Manager and see if there is any mention of the card there, it may be there with an exclamation point or question mark, with an error code, or as an unknown PCI/multimedia device.
Which Operating System do you have on the PC (like WindowsME, WindowsXP)?

Major Problem w/ USB Sound Interface Driver

I want to start off saying that I have Parallels Desktop installed w/ a Windows 7 Guest OS.
I have the Audio 8 DJ driver installed on Windows 7 AND OSX Lion. However when I plug the Audio 8 DJ interface in, it allows me to choose whether it will be connected to Windows 7 OR Lion OSX. So I doubt there will be any conflict there.
HOWEVER!
There is..
A) When I plug it into the Mac, I get a terrible amount of distortion from the driver.
B) When I plug it into the Windows 7, it 'forces' the audio 8 DJ to go back to the OSX lion and crashes the Parallels 7 program.
So I tried to uninstall the windows 7 driver and the Parallels as well. But it doesn't solve my problem.
I noticed that even when I uninstall the OSX Lion Audio 8 DJ Driver, it still pops up in the Audio MIDI as a "CoreDriver." I am new to Macs so this kind of surprised me. I hope someone can sort this out for me, because I found this problem out in the middle of a gig!
Thanks.
PS: I tried the same interface on a seperate desktop computer. The output is completely fine.
Thanks again.

No soldering! USB 3.0 port should be backward compatible with USB 2.0 devices. I didn't answer your first message because I know nothing about external audio 'appliances'. But there have been numerous complaints about the USB 3.0 ports on 2012 MacBook Pro models. The July 18th Software Update apparently fixed the problems for some but not for others. Wait until later this week and install Mountain Lion to see if it fixes your problems. If not take your computer (and your audio gear) to your local Apple Store and let them know that you are having trouble with your USB 3.0 ports supporting USB 2.0 devices. See if they have a 'fix'.
That's the best that I can recommend right now. Apple may blame it on your audio equipment but let them know that you are aware of the many problems that have been reported concerning the USB 3.0 ports.
Good luck,
Clinton

UNRECONIZED PROBLEM WITH SB AUDIGY SOUND CARD

Hi, you all. Pls help me with this problem of my SB Audigy Platinum (SB0060). In Windows XP or even Windows Vista, they can find out my sound card as an Multimedia new hard ware, but when I install sound card driver from CD (original CD driver) fail to install and a message like this: "we cannot find any support products in this computer, pls make sure that is is plugged in your computer already...". I am very disappointed with this 'cause i really like the quality of this Creative sound source. Pls help me. Thanks a lot! Pls answer me : [color="#000099">[email protected](PS: THIS CD DRIVER COMES WITH THIS SOUND CARD BOX, AND I TRY TO INSTALL A NEW FRESH WINDOWS WITH STANDING ALONE SOUND CARD WITH NO CONFLICT TO OTHER PCI CARD, STILL FAILED)

. A friend of mine who also has this soundcard, claims he has a Decoder tab in his device controls in audiohq.. But I dont?!?

That is quite odd. Your Audio HQ should look like this: http://img23.echo.cx/img23/8494/hqdecode7kl.jpg. If not, then you should uninstall you drivers (using the CTZAPXX.exe app on the CD) and reinstall them.
2. When I choose to calibrate my speakers -> basic, FL, FR, RL, RR, C plays ok BUT after that a low freq sound plays for 3 secs then my SL and SR starts to play a high freq beeps respecti'vely...
The program does the same thing on my old T5400 and my current Cambridge MegaWorks 550. My brother has the Audigy 2 ZS also and his Logitech Z-5300s do it as well. I think the program is funky, not your speakers.
3. Since I want to enjoy DTS, I downloaded Windvd, cofigured it to 8 channels (7.). But the SL and SR wont play anything... So I tried Windvds test and all goes well until it is SL and SR turn, they dont play anything... Almost the same as the speaker calibration app. BUT note that in the Creative THX setup console everything works well...

Go into the Options for your DVD software (this applies to any player, not just WinDVD) and set it to S/PDIF Passthrough. This will send the digital signal to your card, which will see it and decode it. Setting WinDVD to 7. mode will try to have the CPU decode the signal. If it doesn't work with WinDVD, then try using Media Player Classic 6.4.x.x and setting the decoder settings to Digital Passthrough. Note that you need to make sure the that decoders are enabled in the Audio HQ (for which you may need to reinstall your drivers.
Note: DTS-ES supports 6.. Dolby Digital EX supports 7., I think.

A problem with ALL creative sound cards i am hav

All creative sound cards that i've used, three i think in the past year. SB Li've, SB Audigy 2 ZS, and the Audigy 2 Zs Platinum Pro. Every time i connect speakers or headphones to the jack, i get really REALLY low sound output, also before windows loads or shuts down i hear a "bump" coming from my speakers/headphones.... I have no idea whats going on....
Specs are:
p4. 3.0
DFI Lanparty 875 rev. B
gig corsair pc4000 dual channel
2x raptor raid 0
SB Audigy 2 ZS Platinum Pro
ATI Radeon x800pro
Headphones i use are bose acoustic 2 headphones
Speakers are logitech x-530
If anyone has had this happen to them before or if anyone has any possible remedies for this I would really appreciate, if this doesnt help im done with creative sound cards =/
[edit]: forgot to mention this is only for the audio jacks on the sound card itself, on the ZS platinum pro, when i connect to the jack on the hub, the sound is alrightMessage Edited by mrkuku on 06-2-2005 06:36 AM

figured out my problem, my built in sound card drivers were conflicting with the creative drivers. Thought that if i turned off the built in sound card from bios that i wouldn't need to delete the drivers also. Thanks for any that read this and tried to figure it out. Now its working like a charm.

Asus A8N-SLI Premium sound card probl

I have the SB Audigy2....does anyone know if this card will work on this MB. For some reason I can't get the MB? to even detect the card....Mike

Yes it shows the question marks in the system control pansl. But if I select reinstall drivers it searchs the disk it still won't let the drivers go in. At first I thought I had a bad MB slot or the MB. was bad so I sent it back. They sent me another and same problem. I also brought another MB thinking it was that style and same thing happened. On my old system all I did was install the card slip in the disk and install what I wanted from the disk. When I install the disk now all it will let me do is pick what program I want to install to listen to what is on the CD. The sample programs.. I must be stupid here or something because I can't for the life of me figure out why it won't install. Out of all the computers I have built this is the first time I have seen this happen. That is why I wanted to know if someone else has this problem on the Asus MB. When I contacted Asus support he said after three MB I might wanna sheck with SB to see why this is happening or if this sound card will work with the MB. There is no way three boards are bad..lol....going nuts, Mike

Intel 915pm sound card can not work

My notebook PC's sound card is onboard 915pm (ICH6M), Audio codec is ALC880. When I use hwd, it can not find the sound card. Then I use alsaconf, it find snd-hda-intel. After I " modprobe snd-hda-intel", xmms can work with mp3 file, but there is no sound output from my speaker.
Why ???

I have this sound card and I was able to get it to work with standard and archck kernels. But there are some bugs and sound sounds corrupted(it's fixed in 2.6.16). Compiling these modules in to the kernel helps a little. But you sould get it to work without any problems.
