Sound Blaster X-Fi Titanium stopped working

If anyone can please help me fix this that would be great
Specs: Windows 7 64bit, Steel Series 5Hv2, Sound Blaster X-Fi Titanium, need more info let me know
It worked perfect when I got the pc built 4 months ago then just the other day when I tried to run skype it didn't work with skype so I messed with settings now the mic just doesn't work at all, I've done a ssytem restore, I've reformated, updated the drivers, put settings to default, I even let Dell look and they couldn't figure it out, I check the plugs and it's in the mic in part, how could this happen it worked perfectly before. If anyone has any clue how to get windows 7 to read the mic from the sound card?

So out of the 22 people who looked at my post none of you know how to help me get my mic working, that's pretty cool

Sound Blaster SB0100 5.1 stopped work

My , most of the time I keep the sound
turned off so dont have any idea when it stopped working, it worked before without
issues any ideas what or where to start checking, I assume their is some sort of
process of elimination process I can use.
When I turn on and off the remote volume switch I can hear the amp power up
and shut off, everything is plugged in.
Speakers are Inspire 5. 5300
Thanks in advance

Try connecting a set of headphones to the back of the card, in the line output (disconnect the speakers from that output). That'll help determine if it's the soundcard that has stopped working, or the speakers.
Go into the Mixer (should be in the System Tray, bottom right hand corner) and make sure the main volume isn't muted. If you have a keyboard with media control on it, someone may have accidentally muted the volume by pressing a mute button on that keyboard.
Make sure the card is selected correctly in Control Panel > Sounds and Audio Devices. It should be set as the preferred device (for both playback and recording).

Sound Blaster Wireless Rage Headset stopped working!

So, i have just tried installing/updating the firmware and after the wireless transmitter failed then succeeded to install its firmware i decided i would also install the firmware for the headset its self but it failed and now my head set's buttons don't working and nothing lights up.
Why there isn't a warning or any thread/support page showing how to solve this is beyond me as from looking on the forums many people have had this problem, if i don't get this solved i will be an even more disappointed customer and amazon will have it back.
Anyone have a solution?
I hope you understand the frustration as i paid

Windows 7 64bit and Sound Blaster X-Fi Titanium - No rear sound

As the title says I have a sound blaster x-fi titanium running on a windows 7 64bit box. I have downloaded all the latest drivers and tools from creative. The issue is no matter what I do I cannot get the 5. surround working. I have the front 3 speakers working and I can even get it to double the two front side speakers to the rear, but not true 5.. I have tried both DD li've and DTS. I have an Onkyo HT-R550 receiver that supports both DD and DTS and I'm connected over a digital optical cable. Trying to figure this one out!
I've gone through all the modes in the creative audio software and tried all the surround modes on the receiver.
Please help

Ok. I have actually formatted my hard dri've to fix another windows and I'm back where I was. I'm testing using the speaker page in the console. I get great sound from all 3 front speakers and my sub. What I've found when clicking the back two I will get a very quiet but clear test voice through both rear speakers, no matter which side I picked. Also the bass portion of the test comes through the sub as normal. I can't seem to get the rear speakers to test any louder.
I did the surround sound speaker test and it all sounds good (without the PC involved). Also my PS3 plays great surround sound through it using the same optical cable.
I also tried your suggestion with no improvement.
What's next?

Thanks for the update although this I had personally worked this out myself. Surely this card is to be released globally soon as it has started to pop up in stores available for pre-order. Any ideas on the release date and what will be the differences?
I have tried to compare it to the <span class="text">Fatalty version to find no difference other than cosmetic. I even went into the FAQ page only to get this:

Sound Blaster X-Fi Titanium

What kind of idiots run creative, I thought I would give Sound Blaster X-Fi Titanium a try what a mistake. The help on this web site is crap. Try to get a manual u cant. Then the stupig how to when you hit disagree it has a problem. Nothing works including the card. I would whip a creative mother**bleep**ers ass. And I will register over and over just to post this.
JUNK JUNK JUNK JUNK JUNK JUNK JUNK JUNK JUNK JUNK JUNK JUNK JUNK JUNK JUNK JUNK JUNK

Did u try the manual? It does not work the chm file. I am not an idiot I have at least 9 computers in the house at this time. I delivered 3 boxes of parts to the local high school. Thos is the biggest POS computer hardware that I have ever purchased. My last three cards that I had workrd flawlessly. Turtle Beach DDL and the generic VIA chipset that comes with the MB. It is working but is creating way to much lag in Quake 3 the only game I play.
Its a shame some guy hacked the creative drivers and made them better. Shows you what kind of talent creative has or the lack of. I would not buy another creative product as long as I live and I buy a lot of pc parts. I am fixing to uninstall this card and would love to shove it up Fatilitys ass. The guy made it on quake and his name is on a POS that causes the system to lag. Not to say what kind of crap creative wants you to install. Why not just a clean drive with a console? To simple I guess.
Let me know if you get the manual to load. I would like to have it downloaded to refrence but thats to simple for the creative idiots. I can no longer keep paper copies of manuals I keep them on the pc for refrence. Seriously try the manual. It opens and the directory is there but know data in the main area. What a joke.

Sound Blaster X-Fi Titanium & Audigy 2 Platium

I have a Sound Blaster X-Fi Titanium that I replaced a Audigy 2 Platium with and was wondering if I could us the Audigy 2 5.25" dri've with the X-Fi card?? They have both have the 40pin ribbon connector but I wanted to make sure before I did it.
Thanks!

Yes you can. I actually used the very first li've dri've or I/O bay with my Audigy 2 and my Fatality Pro. In some cases not all features will work, such as the older style midi in and out ports found on some bays, but everything else will work.

Can breakaway box from Audigy Platinum eX connect to Sound Blaster X-Fi Titanium HD?

I have been happily using the Sound Blaster Audigy Platinum eX for a decade or so but it is now time to build a new box. The Sound Blaster X-Fi Titanium HD seems to be the card for me and it does have a multi-pin connection that seems to match the one on the legacy card. The legacy card has the best external box I have yet seen, the perfect combination of inputs, outputs, and controls and I would dearly love to keep using it. Does anyone know if the two items are compatible?

Thanks, I was afraid that might be the case. Would the legacy card work with Windows 7 perhaps or has the audio stack changed too drastically from Windows XP to Windows 7? I am loathe to give up this breakaway box, I have never seen another with this many i/o ports and features.

Sound Blaster X-Fi Titanium Fatal1ty Champion Series and Win 7 64Bit

Now that Win 7 SP is out, i am planning on moving over to the Win 7 64Bit OS.
Whats the best way to setup Sound Blaster X-Fi Titanium Fatalty Champion Series card software setup.
Is there a DVD i could download or be sent for Win 7.
Whats the best way to proceed...
Thanks
red

OK I got it!!
I put in a Price Alert at the egg and got it for 09.00/with FREE shipping so I'm stoked!! it DOES have a yellow sticker on the box that says "works with Windows 7" so I guess this is all I need.
Are there ANY suggestions on how to go about installing this in Windows 7 64bit, I want the front panel to work and will use it for movies music and mostly gaming.
what about Windows 7 installing the card as a standard sound device at boot, is there a way to prevent this if not how is this fixed?
Should I use the newest beta drivers? or wait till I see if I have any problems with the sound not working?
what about the user made drivers I have seen around these forums, I know they are most likely not supported but how about functionality? would they be better?
thanks for any suggestions.

The sound on my laptop has stopped working entirely, with and without headphones. What should I do?

The sound on my computer has stopped working. I have searched through countles google entries to try and figure out the problem but I can't find anything remotely useful. I never spilled any liquid or anything on my computer. I was just searching through youtube and when I clicked a video there was no sound. Then I checked iTunes and tried to play some music, still no sound. I played around with the preferences and volume control, still no sound. If you have any advice please help. Going to the apple store is so expensive and I don't have the time or money.

Did you try resetting PRAM and SMC?
Is there any red light visible in the headphone port?

Where is the frontal connection:
SPDIF (in/out)?
Line In 2?
Midi (in/out)?
Remote Control?
300$ for this card? that?s funny.

Sound Blaster X-FI drivers not working

I have a sound blaster x-fi card, im pretty sure thats the model, and i downloaded updated drivers that were supposed to support it i believe it was SBXF_PCDRV_XPVT_LB_2_18_0015.exe. After installation i have no sound at all and if i try to chose the volume mixer it gives me an error message: "There are no active mixer devices available..."
It shows that it is installed properly and functioning in device manager and Windows Audio Service is running. After the updated drivers weren't working i rolled back to my previous drivers and the problem is persisting even with the old drivers that worked before. I'm at a loss I have tried everything i can think of even reloading drivers from the original installation cd from 2007 and i cant find anyone with the same problem on the net.

the full model number of the device is sb0460
I used auto update to find the offending drivers that are the whole cause of this issue. I know it is a problem with windows but it was caused by me attempting to update these faulty drivers. Updating the drivers is the only thing i have changed on the system that now has no devices available for playback. i have since uninstalled and removed the card from my mobo and switched to onboard audio and now that doesn't even work.
Just like the sound blaster, the onboard audio's drivers are working fine and the device says its functional yet i cant select it as a default playback device and i get the same errors when trying to open the mixer.
So basically the botom line is that the auto updater or the subsequent drivers that were retrieved by it messed up something in my system that even system restore cant fix.
I would love to do a full re-installation of windows xp media center but this is a hand me down computer and i dont have the installation disks. I'll probably have to buy or request one then wait 6 months just to have a functional computer again.
