Sound blaster mp3+ driver is

Hi,
I purchased a re-certified soundblaster mp3+ 0270 from creative.com. I have windows XP and when i installed the drivers it gives error with "Creative SB External USB Composite Device". The dri've r is not able to dri've the device?
Is sb mp3+ runs in windows XP with the drivers that come with the default CD? if not where do i find the XP drivers?. and if this is not the driver issue, what do i need to operate this device in my windows XP?
Thanks in Advance
Paras.

Updated drivers from legacy driver pack. Card still doing the same thing. No drivers installed, can work fine but cannot utilize EAX add-ons, cpu says cannot find supported device.
Drivers installed, music plays choppy and fast. I have un-installed and re-installed all software and drivers and even cleared registry between installs and uninstalls... Still no ideas out there?

USB Sound Blaster MP3+ and Vi

My USB Sound Blaster MP3+ performs fantastically using the nati've drivers on Win2K and WinXP.
On Vista, however, there is a chirpy/buzzy distortion piggybacking on any signal passed through the A-to-D (line in, specifically). I've tried two different Vista PC, different powered USB hubs, and with and without the Creative USB Series Windows Vista Driver .0.0002 to no benefit.
I'm an engineer and a programmer, but not a Windows programmer. Can somebody tell me why this nearly generic USB Audio interface doesn't work with Vista I have other USB Audio devices that work fine with the nati've drivers on Vista.

Is there anyone with experience with this sound card, recording and Vista?

Sound Blaster MP3+ causes Control Panel er

Hi,
I just installed the drivers from the installation CD and everything seems to be working properly. However, whenever I open Control Panel, I get this error message:
"To enable the advanced sound effect for gaming, please make sure the setting of Hardware Acceleration is "full". The directory is as below: Control Panel -> Multimedia(Win98) / Sound & Multimedia(Win200, Me)/Sound & Audio Device (WinXP) -> Audio -> Playback/Advance...-> Performance -> Hardware Acceleration"
It has only an "OK" button which, when I click it, brings up the error again. This happens 3 or 4 times in a row, and then finally the Control Panel appears.
I did not have this problem before installing Service Pack 2 for Windows XP. I thought maybe installing SP 2 was the cause of the problem. However, I just reformatted my hard-dri've and installed SP 2 BEFORE installing Sound Blaster MP3+. The problem appears again. Is there a known compatibility issue? What might be the cause of this error?
Also, I was just wondering: What exactly is Sound Blaster MP3+? Is it an actual sound card? Or is it just a sound processing device. I am running it on a laptop which has an integrated sound card. Should I have disabled the integrated sound card before installing MP3+? Could there be a conflict there?
Thanks.

Sorry, I forgot to mention that yes, I checked the Hardware Acceleration settings and they are already set to "full".

Sound Blaster Zx driver install causes IO blue screen

So things went like this:
I received my Sound Blaster Zx today. Opened it up, found that it contained some very handy instructions, so I followed those to the letter.
During the installation of the drivers, after I was prompted to choose whether or not to install the drivers by my Windows 7 64 bit (which obviously I chose to install), it blue screened with an IO error.
Then, presumably because the drivers didn't install correctly, it blue screened due to cthdb.sys every time I booted up.
I had to boot in safe mode and remove the drivers.
Then, I started up normally again. Windows automatically installed the drivers, even though it is said to do NOTHING when it detects a new device - no updates, no driver installation, no nothing. It installed the SAME drivers and so I had the IO blue screen again, and then blue screened due to cthdb.sys every time I booted.
Again I had to remove the drivers using safe mode.
No drivers will install without the card being installed, and if the card installed then the dodgy, BSOD causing drivers get installed automatically.
What do I do?

Uninstall the sound driver via Device Manager and remove when asked all the drivers related so it doesnt reinstall them at every reboot.
Swap the card around until you find a good slot and uninstall drivers and disable in BIOS afterwards the onboard prior testing another driver.
Is the cards properly seated in the slot ?!
Ignore the metal stuff look at the slot.

Sound Blaster Z driver settings suggestions please

Hello everyone! I'm new here, this is my first post (I've had this account since 2009.. wow.) Just had some questions that I'm hoping someone here will know the answers to. I am using the Sound Blaster Z sound card with an Astro A40 System headset that is hooked up to the sound card via S/PDIF. My product, both the headset and sound card work great but I have a few questions about the Creative Labs driver options. First off, what software setup do you guys (and girls) recommend?
1.) Select Stereo Direct, disable all encoders (no encoder such as Dolby Digital Live or DTS) and make the S/PDIF audio device on the sound card the default audio playback device
2.) Select Stereo Direct, enable the Dolby Digital Live encoder, and make the Speaker the default audio playback device, with the default format settings at 24-bit 192 kHz (192000 Hz)
If you recommend option 1, what default format / bit-rate / bit-depth do you recommend? The Astro A40 system via S/PDIF accepts 16-bit and 24-bit up to 48 kHz (48000 Hz) I have the most stability and lowest latency using 16-bit 44.1 kHz and 16-bit 48 kHz but in some (rare) cases I've noticed 24-bit having better audio clarity.
Secondly, can anyone explain to me in deeper technical detail the difference between using the speaker output with stereo direct and DDL (Dolby Digital Live) versus just having all audio go directly to the S/PDIF output? Also, if my audio receiver (my Astro A40 mixamp) only allows frequencies up to 48 kHz, how does using the speaker output set to 192 kHz still work over S/PDIF? I can still hear things with the 192 kHz audio option still selected. If you could explain these things to me that would be great! Thank you so much!
Alec

Bump
I figured this would be a common question or at least something many of you would know the answers to.. In short:
What is the difference between stereo direct + stereo output versus S/PDIF if audio still comes in either way?
Secondly, 192 kHz audio signals shouldn't work via S/PDIF yet it does when you select speaker output. These drivers are a tad confusing.. Thanks!

USB Sound Blaster MP3+ questi

I just got this card, and am not super computer literate when it comes to this, but I have a program that I can copy from cassette tape, remove pops,cracks etc from tape recordings or vinal recordings and I am sure that this card & program should be able to do the same thing, but I can't figure out how to do it. There are too many different things to look at and it does not seem real user friendly. I have used the sound blaster to copy the cassettes and to switch between WAV & MP3 files, but had to go to my Polderbits software to be able to make the files sound better. Any suggestions?

Is there anyone with experience with this sound card, recording and Vista?

Sound Blaster SE, driver not install

Hi, I just went out and bought Sound Blaster SE and installed it on my computer. But, no sound... so I uninstalled it fully and came here and downloaded the newest driver, I installed it and still.. no sound. So I came here and followed all of the guides and STILL NO SOUND! So I went into DxDiag and checked DirectSound and this is what is shows:
[img"]http://i7.photobucket.com/albums/y278/Jamlpr/DxDiag.png[/img]
After running the test directsound button I get this:
[img"]http://i7.photobucket.com/albums/y278/Jamlpr/DxDiag2.png[/img]
Note the (No Driver).. odd seeing how it says 3 inches above this that I do infact have a driver installed..
I have onboard sound disabled and I have pcspeaker disabled. I'm running Windows XP Professional. The "no WHQL" wasn't there when I installed the driver via CD, but I still had the same (No Driver) issue.. so I don't think it is that.
If I can recieve ANY help, It will be much appreciated. I would just like to have working sound!

Sorry to double post, but I have heard that reinstalling Xp Pro will fix this problem, but I do not have the CDs anymore.. and I can't shell out the money to buy it again (that's why I got SE, it's cheap). Is there any other fix?

SOUND BLASTER LIVE DRIVER FOR WINDOWS

I have sound blaster li've card Model No. CT4830 and Sl No. M4830030095. I need driver for this card.

Hi,
See if you could download the driver here.
Good luck.

Sound Blaster Live Drive Won't reco

I installed a SB Li've dri've in my uncle's computer and I can't get it to record through the mic2/Line-in2 input. I have done everything I know to fix the problem (uninstall - re-install the drivers and software, removed and re-installed the hardware). The problem is that the mute is always on in play control, in the recording control, it is selected, but it is still muted. I can't disable the mute.
TIA

Here is what I have found with the old li've dri'ves. I bought one of the first li've dri'ves with my very first Sound Blaster Li've!'s then I bought the 5., and then the Audigy 2ZS with its I/O bay. i/o bay and li've dri've are interchangeable terms to me. I have used my very first Li've dri've with my Audigy 2Z and Fatality Pro Pci-regular. Simply plug in the "old style 40 pin ide type cable" and the power source. Reboot your machine. Then you will have a new tab in your Creative Control Panel. The panel will now have options for Line2/Mic 2 etc. These are not alternate inputs and recording sources. These are usable in Windows 7 and Vista as well as XP.
Older Li've Dri'ves work with newer cards, but not all newer Li've Dri'ves work with older cards. For example, the Audigy 2 ZS has a firewire connector that plugs on to the sound card, so if your card has no firewire port connection that part of the dri've wont work. But the microphone, input and midi connectors will. Just make sure that the I/O bay/Li've Dri've is plugged in with the floppy power source connector and that your ribbon cables pink edge is plugged in on PIN on the card and I/O bay. Otherwise, some of the bay's functions will work and others will show up in the control panel but will not work. Hope this hel

Sound Blaster Mp3+ cannot hear recorded so

When I play sound into the RCA line in on the back of the MP3+ the computer registers and records it correctly but I cannot hear it as it is playing which means I cannot simply listen to records on the computer using the line in. I have also noticed that there is no 'what u hear' option in the recording source selecter as has been the case with other creative cards. How can I make the the recording source audible?

Bahamut_uk,
Unfortunately the MP3+ is not capable of playing back it's inputs. This is due to USB bandwidth limitation as it would require the sound to be sent to the computer and then sent back to the MP3+ for output. This would introduce timing and latency problems. It would also require a huge amount of the usb bandwidth which would limit the computer sound quality capable. For a similar reason there is not an option for "What-U-Hear".

Windows Vista - Sound Blaster 24 Bit Usb - No Microphone Playback Real Time Kara

Hi,
I don't no if this problem was just discussed in another thread, if so please giveme simply the link...
I'm Italian, so sorry for my poor english or bad translation...
PC: Laptop, "Toshiba Satellite A 200 24E"
OS: "Windows Vista Home Premium Service Pack " - All update done.
Dev.: "External Sound Blaster 24 Bit Usb" - Driver downloaded from Creative Web Site
At the very beginning I tried the internal Sound Card (Realtek) to do karaoke in spare time, but couldn't hear anything coming from Microphone. So I tried to buy an external sound card. The result is the same.
On "Record Device" I can see the Microphone Device, the level is on top, when I speak in the microphone I can see the green bar light up, if I record my voice I can hear myself when I playback, but no sound in real time.
I read that a lot of people have similar problems, but everone solves in a different manner...
I tried:
- I read in other forums advices about to do something like unmute microphone on "Audio playback devices" >> "Speaker" >> "Levels", but I don't see any checkbox, I can see only Speaker Level Bar...
- As read in other websites, to add a registry key (something like EnableInputMonitor in a specific path), but nothing changes. I cannot find other Device, not in Playback Devices, and not in Record Devices.
Please help, all was great with the same microphone, on old Packard Bell Laptop, old Sound Blaster mp3+ usb, and old Windows Xp.
If no solution, I 'm going on buy an old laptop with Windows xp, or an external Mixer, but I'm disappointed on spending more money...

well ?

Recording audio from a digital source on sound blaster M

This is my setup: DVD player > optical cable > optical-in on Sound Blaster MP3+
I'm trying to record the STEREO (not 5. or DTS) audio off a DVD I have, but it won't record or playback anything on either the SPDIF input or Wave/MIDI/CD input when selected. Everything else works fine (analog, line-in, etc.). Another thing I noticed is that all of the inputs seem to be connected to my built-in regular laptop microphone. When I press record in any .wav recording program, I can hear my voice/other background noise.

The issue I see with iTalk and similar iPod apps is that the iPod has no line-level input, so you'd have to use one of the earbud/microphone combinations or an external microphone like this one which will be limited as to quality. There are some other options here. But if you want pro quality, and particularly want to tap straight off of a mixing console, a device like the Alesis is going to be necessary, though there may be something less expensive that I can't find.
If a microphone works for you, then iTalk might be fine. There's a freeware version of iTalk, iTalk Lite, you can try, to see if it will do the job. It doesn't have the advanced playback controls and has a limit of 2MB per recording, but it should allow you to test it out. Voxie is another possibility.
Regards.
