Sound Blaster 16 Pro prob

I had to reinstall Windows 95 on my computer (yes, it's old but has be good for what I do) and had to reinstall Sound Blaster. It took me a while to get it so it was the only sound device with no conflicts. When I installed the software I keep getting a message that cs3ba.drv and vsndsys.386 are not present but I can find them in Windows. I have uninstalled and installed this about 50 times and it doesn't ever see those files. Any suggestions? Thanks!

Many, many people complain about this issue.
Check your Creative Audio console program, which should be installed. Make sure on the speaker tab has 4. selected. You may find you simply cannot select 4. and 2. wants to take priority.
We made a guide here that could possibly help you recover from "forced 2.".
My 5. speakers were unable to use more than 2. until I did this.
Good luck!

  • Sound blaster pro 2 (ct1600) not working under windows

    Hi,
    i have a little problem... i have a Creative Sound Blaster Pro 2 (PCI) card (ref.: CT600) that WAS working under windows 98SE. Now i have installed windows XP pro SP2 and i have no sound.
    after that i have tried the procedures you describe on the sticky above BUT... still no sound. after a few hours of search i came to understand that i'm not the only one with this problem and taht it's driver compatibility related "SO" i decided to search creative labs for a solution and i find a driver that suposedly would work and (another but...) still no sound...
    what can i do? can you provide some info OR a driver download link? i would apreciate the help...
    Thanks in advance =)

    PS: sorry for my bad english if i made some mistake... i'm portuguese... =)Message Edited by DaRk_f0x on 02-6-2005 0:59 AM

    and isn't there any way of getting the sound cart to work unless having to buy another?
    i'm asking because the system locates the card, instals windows drivers but there's no sound although the card is there! well guess i'm gonna search some sites for legacy support workarounds...Message Edited by DaRk_f0x on 02-6-2005 02:2 AM

  • (Infos) Sound Blaster PRO 2 sur port ISA

    Bonjour,
    J'ai une Sound Blaster PRO 2 sur port ISA (qui fonctionne tr?s tr?s bien) qui tourne avec un Cyrix 66+.
    N'ayant plus le manuel sous la main (heu...si vous savez o? je peux le trouver ?a serait sympa!) je me pose une question : ? quoi sert le connecteur, m?me connecteur en apparence qui se trouve sur la carte m?re pour alimenter hdd et/ou lecteur de cd, sur cette carte ?
    Je me pose la question car quand j'ai branch? dessus mon lecteur de CD, le r?sultat ?tait plut?t innatendu sous DOS : probl?me au ni'veau de la carte son (adresse et irq -> donc pas de son) et probl?me au ni'veau du lecteur de CD (pas de lecteur)
    Merci par avance de toute l'aide que vous pouvez apporter.

  • Sound Blaster Audigy 2 ZS Platinum Pro Prob

    Recently I've purchased the Creative Power Pack Pro 7., it included the <SPAN class=textbluebold>Creative GigaWorks 7. S750
    <SPAN class=textbluebold>speakers, and <SPAN class=textbluebold>Sound Blaster Audigy 2 ZS Platinum Pro soundcard. I've installed my Sound Blaster Audigy 2 ZS Platinum Pro card and setup my Sound Blaster GigaWorks S750 speakers but so far after many attempts haven't gotten them to work. I've tried all updates off the Creative site and gone through the cards settings. For some reason in the speaker settings it only lists Headphones, 2., 4. and 5. speaker settings, leaving out 7.. I've checked all plugins and hookups, and am stuck for now. I have a brand new Sony Vaio computer, so i know that my computer is not the problem. I read through all the forms and I was only able to find one other question like mine, one person answered saying that the <SPAN class=textbluebold>Sound Blaster Audigy 2 ZS Platinum Pro is not compatible with 7. speakers. I have no clue why Creative would sell the Audigy 2 ZS Platinum Pro and GigaWorks S750 7. speakers if they are not compatible with each other. Someone please help me. Thanks.

  • Creative Sound Blaster Audigy ZS And Vista Driver installation prob

    HI!
    I encounter Installation problems with that file:
    Creative Sound Blaster Audigy Value/SE/LS and Sound Blaster Li've! 24-bit XP and Windows Vista Pack .04.0077
    I Use Vista 64Bit Ultimate and when I try to install this package I have an error message after my language selection. Is there a known issue for this
    Thanks!

    Yes it is called trying to install the wrong driver for your card. Will work much better if you try installing the correct one,
    SBAX_PCDRV_LB_2_8_000.exe
    Also helps if you click on the "Show Details" link on the download page, then you would see that the one you tried to install doesn't support your card,
    Requirements:
    Microsoft Windows Vista 64-bit, Windows Vista 32-bit, Windows XP Professional x64 Edition, Windows XP Service Pack 2, Windows XP Media Center Edition 2005 or Windows XP Media Center Edition 2004
    Sound Blaster Audigy Value/SE/LS, or Sound Blaster Li've! 24-bit audio devices
    whereas the correct driver shows the following,
    This download supports the following audio devices only:
    Creative Sound Blaster Audigy including Platinum and Platinum eX series
    Creative Sound Blaster Audigy 2 including Platinum, Platinum eX, and Value series
    Creative Sound Blaster Audigy 2 ZS including Platinum and Platinum Pro series
    Creative Sound Blaster Audigy 4 Pro and Sound Blaster Audigy 4

  • Sound Blaster Audigy 2 ZS Platinum Pro Ad_link Cable

    Hi,? I have the Sound Blaster Audigy 2 ZS Platinum Pro and my Ad_Link cable has been damaged. I have contacted every on line auction house and everyone in and out of the United States and no one has this cable available. What I am looking for now is one of 2 things;? the specs of this cable (which is not listed in any of the documentation that came with the product, nor is it on the web-site, nor does Customer Support seem to have this information), or a comparable cable that will work in it's place.
    Thanks for any help that anyone can offer.

    Hi
    I have Creative Sound Blaster 5.1 Pro Usb connected analog with Creative Inspire 5200 (5.1). Operating system Win8.1 with full updated. When I watching DVD etc 5.1 sound-everything is ok. But if i listen stereo music, there are 3 channels work that Front right,left and Center. This is not enough satisfy me.
    On the other hand, when i watching something on youtube, there are 4 channels work (Front Right/Left&Rear Right/Left) which is better.
    Which settings fix my problem for 4 channels listening stereo?
    Have a good day..

  • Microphone Issue - Sound Blaster Audigy 2 ZS Platinum Pro Audio C

    Hey there, sorry to post but I've got a little issue which I'm sure is me being stupid but its racking my head so here it comes. I have recently started using talk programs such as vent, skype blah blah to speak to people back home and since moving abroad I have found that now I need the mic to contact these people (which it used to fine before I arri'ved on foreign soil). On clicking on volume control and advance or properties I have nothing in recording for mic and this is where im lost. If I enable the mic on any of the programs people are hearing whatever happens to be coming out of the computer speaks such as games or a movie etc. i've just tried a full removal and reinstallation of the sound drivers for the model in my comp (Sound Blaster Audigy 2 ZS Platinum Pro Audio Card).
    All my mates are saying surely you cant lose mic from the volume control but yet its gone and I have no idea how to reactivate it. People seemt o think the card is buggered but it seems fine with everything else I fire out.
    Any help on how stupid I'm being would be great.
    Thanks in advance.

  • Sound Blaster Live 24bit External (5.1) Mic-In / Line-In prob

    Hey, here's my setup:
    Virtual DJ Console Edition (3.4. updated)
    Hercules MP3 Console
    Creative Sound Blaster Li've 24bit external (5. card, using it as a 4. to get FRONT out to speakers and REAR as headphone queue)
    I need to broadcast using Shoutcast (the VirtualDJ internal broadcasting plugin wont allow to set up full details that SHOUTcast plugin for Winamp allows you to fill in.... i.e. Yellow pages etc etc)
    The problem is basically that when I'm using SHOUTcast for Winamp, it streams both my FRONT and REAR outputs, can't seem to choose for it to stream only FRONT...
    Now, I know I can send the FRONT to Line-in (and use a stereo Y splitter to get the sound also to my speakers), but then it seems my Sound Blaster li've disables my Mic-In... seems that it has shared Line-In and Mic-In even though they are separate holes in the box....
    so basically wondering if anyones got any suggestions as to how to be able to Broadcast only the FRONT output and use the Microphone... now it seems its either I can't use the Microphone when doing a radio show... or alternati'vely I can't use my headphone queue...
    I don't understand why would the card have a separate Line-In and Mic-In, but you can't use the Mic-In if you have something hooked in the Line-In? Could there be some software or driver update I could get to be able to do this? Or am I just having forced to buy something like an M-Audio card thats exactly the same, but doesnt share the Mic and Line-ins but lets you use both at the same time?
    Thanks for any suggestions! They are most welcome!

    at drivers?
    IF you mean those third part yASIO drivers they limit to 6 bit recording whic hisn't an issue wuth Acid pro, it's the bandwith and asio offset. DO you ahve a link?

  • Sound Blaster X-FI Xtreme Gamer Fatal1ty Pro problem

    Hello,
    I own a Sound Blaster X-FI Xtreme Gamer Fatalty Pro and I have a problem with it. If I want to switch to speakers or headphones, by removing the jack and inserting another one back to the sound card, the sounds stops, or it emits a sounds like when someone connected to an ECG dies. I can only swap headphones with speakers and viceversa when the computer is shut off.
    Can you please help me?

    Hi,
    Did this happen right out of the box or do you own the card for some time now?
    Just in case, please ensure that the sound card is firmly seated on the pci slot.
