Third Party Vista Drivers that w

If you want my advice, stop waiting for creative to ship drivers and get the third party drivers over at the kX Project Site. Unlike Creative they're actually releasing beta drivers for Vista and whats more they offer advanced settings that creative will never release in their drivers.
The site is here:
http://kxproject.com/
The first thing to check out is to make sure the driver supports your model:
http://kb.kxproject.lugosoft.com/list.html
You'll notice there is even support for cards that creative have officially announced that there is no planned vista support for.
The latest beta drivers (version 3538l at time of post) that have Vista support are here:
http://www.driverheaven.net/forumdisplay.php?s=&daysprune=&f=74.
A note of warning, these drivers are aimed at professional audiophiles (the exact ones creative seem to snub these days) and so the amount of settings may be a little overwhelming, but trust me, it's worth the learning curve. But hey, being Vista early adopters you're probably a bit savvy anyway.
Personally I've found the kX drivers drivers much more stable on my configuration. As an example, I have a Creative Audigy card in my docking bay and the creative drivers prevent my laptop from undocking (eventually causing vista to blue screen). The kX drivers on the other hand close correctly and allow my laptop to be undocked.
My personal opinion is that the result of Creative not running a proper public beta system is that the Creative drivers will be largely incompatible with many hardware configurations on release. Sure they may have the drivers going nicely with their own in house hardware but the advantage of public betas is that you are able to test on a huge install base of weird and wonderful configurations.
I'd bet that as an example the creative drivers still cause problems with docking stations when they're finally released for Vista. Mark my words!
I sincerely hope you all get your cards working well with Vista and these drivers. If you do please make a reply to this thread stating so. This way Creative have a record of the number of users that have given up hope on them. The added side affect will be to keep this thread towards the top of the message board for others to see.

For SBLi've, EMU APS, Audigy, Audigy2 and SB 52 cards?uhh . . I don't see Xfi on the list in the driver. Am I missing something?

    Ahhh, I see that you did not allow them to connect (is this true)
    Here is a link to the Lion/Mountain Lion compatible version of Quicken.

  • Looking for a third-party affiliate program that will integrate well with Adobe Business Catalyst.

    Dear Adobe Community,
    I am looking for a third-party Affiliate Program that will integrate well with the Adobe Business Catalyst platform.
    The requirement is fairly basic, i.e.,  to track multiple affiliates and down-stream affiliate-to-affiliate referrals. Also looking to report and display these referrals an affiliate’s dashboard.
    We have looked into Affiliate Program Software, Affiliate Tracking Software Marketing and would like to entertain other options before making a decision.
    Any assistance would be greatly appreciated! —Thank You!
    Kind Regards,
    Doug McClure

    For what it is worth, I am a fan of NuGen, I have both SEQ 1 and 2 and two stereo enhancing tools (stereoizer and stereoplacer I think they're called). Since I have the SEQ 1 it replaces all Channel EQ's. And the stereotools sound great and very lush, in stead of the more usual cheezy combfilterthingies that pass for stereo enhancing tools.
    And I actually like the interfaces. Simple, but stylish, functional and ergonomic (in this case meaning you can see all parameters in a quick glance, no guessing at settings).

  • Is there a "third party" gps transmitter  that i could use with iphone to locate my bike?

    Is there a "third party" gps transmitter  that i could use with iphone to locate my bike?

    Interesting.  Would I have to jailbreak my phone or both in order to help out my Dad? 
    What features in the Jailbreak would allow me to perform the remote support like LogMeIn?
    Thx!

  • Using a Third Party JDBC Driver that has dependencies [Version 2.1.1.64]

    I am trying to connect to a TRIP database (a product from Tietoenator). They offer a JDBC driver which I have already used in java applications. So I can confirm that it works. What makes that driver perhaps a bit special is that it needs 3 other jars to operate.
    So I need these jar files
    <li> tripjdbc.jar (this is the actual jdbc driver)
    <li> tripjtk.jar
    <li> triputil.jar
    <li> xercesImpl.jar
    I have tried to place all of those jars into the Tools > Preferences > Database > Third Party Drivers dialogue [as suggested here|http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/database/sql_developer/files/thirdparty.htm]. But that does not help.
    Following the docs of Tietoenator I need those 3 libraries in the path of the java app the JDBC driver shall be used from. This is where I currently fail. How can I add those to the classpath of the SQL Developer? I assume it is a *.conf file somewhere in the SQL Developer home directory ... ?
    Thank you for any suggestion.
    EDIT: I am using SQL Developer on a windows box. May be of interest.

  • How to use third party jdbc drivers ?

    Hi,
    Im new to sun one app server.i have some existing CMP
    bean (currently testing under J2EE RI).database used is
    SQL server 2000 and using a 3 rd party JDBC Driver.
    my question is. if i switch to sun one app server, do i need
    anyother third party stuff to support CMP using SQL
    Server? (other than the exisiting jdbc driver andSQL Server).
    I read somewhere that in sun one we need to get a
    persistance manger from the 3 rd part. is it necessary?
    can i use my plain jdbc driver with the builtin persistance
    manager of sun one app server?. how can i do that ?
    thanks in advance
    -mr ex

    Hi,
    Persistence manager from 3rd party is not required.You
    can use the built in persistence manager of Sun one application server.
    You can refer the following link for creating new persistence manager

  • Billing Due List shows third party sales orders that have no SGR

    Hello,
    I've run into an issue where the billing due list (VF04) shows sales documents that have not gone through statistical goods receipt.  In our normal flow we create a sales order, which automatically creates a purchase requisition (PR).  We create a purchase order (PO) from the PR and when we generate a shipping notification (ASN) we also do a statistical goods receipt, which kicks off billing. 
    Normally items show up in the billing due list based on the billing type of the sales order item category.  In this case that indicator is B - relevant for order-related billing on the basis of the order quantity.  My understanding is that it should not show up in the billing due list until goods receipt, which is not happening for us.  We're seeing sales orders based on non-SGR'd PO's in the billing due list. 
    Also, in sales to billing copy control (vtfa) the billing quantity indicator is E - Goods receipt less invoiced quantity.
    Any ideas?  Have I provided enough info?  Thanks in advance!

    Kapil,
    Thank you very much!  However, a setting of 'F' only seems to show line items in the Billing Due List after I create a vendor invoice.  We are not using vendor invoices for our process and I want items to show up in the Billing Due List after the GRN.  Are you saying that you think items should show up in the Billing Due List after the GRN?  I know SAP doco kind hints to that, but I did try a setting of 'F' and it does not work; the items only show up after I create a vendor invoice.
    Any other info or guidance is greatly appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Mark

  • Third party reporting tools that can be used with WLI 8.1

    All:
    I am working on Weblogic Integration 8.1. I am wondering are there any ready tools that can be used with WebLogic Integration process related tables to get different types of reports out of it.
    Can somebody point me to these tools??
    TIA,
    Prashanth Bhat.

    Are you using ADE to read bought books, library books, or only free books?
    If only free books, I suggest you install the superior free Calibre instead (http://calibre-ebook.com/)
    For bought or library books you do need to install ADE on the new machine.
    You will also need to register it with your Adobe ID; the same one you used on the last machine.
    If you can't remember that ID or the password, ask, and we may be able to help.
    I will give instructions for the latest version of ADE (2.0.1), even though I am afraid it has more problems than the old one it is more 'standard'.
    Goto http://www.adobe.com/uk/products/digital-editions/download.html
    Click on the 'Download Digital Edition 2.0.1 Windows (5.6 MB)'  (you can go direct to http://download.adobe.com/pub/adobe/digitaleditions/ADE_2.0_Installer.exe if you prefer)
    When it has downloaded you must open/run it.  If you are using Internet Explorer, choose the Run option when you start the download.
    It should now go through a fairly standard install procedure, asking if it is ok to run the program, etc etc
    Take the easy 'yes' or equivalent option at each step.
    When it is safely installed, run it.  It should have put an icon on the desktop.
    You now need to authorize ADE. 
    Use ctrl-shift-U which will open up a dialog asking for your Adobe ID and password.
    You should now be able to use it pretty much as you used ADE on your old machine.
    Good luck.  Unfortunately not a very easy process even when all works well, and there are several things that can go wrong.
    Don't hesitate to ask again if you need help.

  • Can I use third party web services that communicate via http-post with webui builder?

    Hi, 
    I have 5 computers (services) that are controlled via http-post. 3 of these services are implemented as labview webservices, 1 is labview socket (with python http-wrapper) and the last one is implemented with c# (lighttpd + cgi). 
    Can I use webui builder to controll all of them? Or, what is the simplest change so I can use webui builder?
    What I would like to do, is to change the current javascript-UI to labview-webui. For the interfaces implemented with labview webservices, this is not a problem. For non-labview services, I don't know if it is even possible.
    br,
    Juha

    To add to Mike's answer, the only caveat is that the server needs an appropriate clientaccesspolicy.xml file at the root level (http://yourserver/clientaccesspolicy.xml), or a completely open crossdomain.xml file, for the editor and built apps to be able to communicate with it. There's a help topic which explains this in the context of LV web services, but it's true for Web UI Builder to be able to communicate with arbitrary web servers also.
    Since it sounds like you control all the web servers in question, it shouldn't be too difficult to get this file in place, though.

  • Third party plug ins that actually DON"T work

    some plug-ins that are listed in this forum as working, don't handle automation correctly. These include all arturia, and the korg legacy plug-ins. The linplugs seem to work with the automation correctly. Although I've encountered many redraw issues and bugs which are all related to automation. This has got to be the worst logic upgrade ever!!!! (I've been working with the platform since logic 3.5.3) I'm not a happy camper.

    When you say "don't handle automation correctly", what exactly do you mean?
    Do they fly off in a tantrum, or just cross their arms in a huff and refuse to do anything..?

  • Using third party jdbc drivers in Portal server

    I have an application that runs inside the WebLogic Portal server. The portal server
    is configured to work with Oracle using the default oracle driver that comes with
    weblogic.
    My application, however, also needs to connect to a database. I am using the oracle-oci
    driver ( type 2 - provided by oracle) in my application.
    However, intermittantly i am getting an exception as follows:
    An unexpected exception has been detected in native code outside the VM.
    Unexpected Signal : EXCEPTION_ACCESS_VIOLATION occurred at PC=0x6044c4bc

    This is not happening always.
    Another related question is can the portal server use my driver instead of its
    own. If somebody from BEA is listening in, will BEA support such an installation?
    Any ideas are welcome.

    Hi,
    Unfortunately there was a regression bug around using the Generic JDBC connector to a Foreign Database in this Technology Preview (3). I'm not able to give you good news as I don't have a workaround for you either.
    You could use SQLDeveloper to connect to the database for live work, unfortunately that will not help if you wanted to create offline objects of some sort using JDeveloper.

  • MacBook Pro with Third Party USB External Modem ? Drivers? Network Pane?

    I bought my brother a MacBook Pro last month, and he is using it fine in Pakistan with my Airport base station and cable internet access. Problem is when he is on the road, and using GPRS with his Sony Ericsson P900/910 is terribly expensive there. So, I have to send him an Apple USB modem (that I am yet to hear good things about). However, he does have an external third party USB modem that works fine with PC laptops. Are there any generic drivers for USB modems built into OS X in MacBooks? How would he go about using the external USB modem in Network control panel and using a generic driver?
    Is there a way to use Parallels (that he has) to connect to Internet from the Windoze USB modem and have MacOS X use the Windows connection as the "router"? Thanks.

  • Conflict with Third Party Apps?

    I am getting an occasional error saying there is a possible conflict with third party apps and that I need to check the drivers of my MIDI devices to see if they are up to date? Sorry but I did not record the exact wording. Does anyone know what this might mean, and how I need to go about checking drivers? I have a lot of interfaces and not sure how to see what's what. Thanks.

    Hi Midlake,
    Well, because they are known troublemakers. Search for 'takes' or 'take folder(s)' or 'comp' here on the forum and you'll find many a troubled soul crying out for help - including seasoned pro's, who thought they were beyond tears...
    O, they are fine for recording many takes - but thats' all. I'll select the best takes/phrases.

  • Third Party Mouse disconnects

    Recently bought a MacBook Pro in the past week. I got a cheap third party wired mouse that worked great with 10.8.5. The entire time I owned this laptop I have never had a problem with this mouse. Today I decided to upgrade to 10.9. Now the mouse can be connected and can be used for a little while (less than a couple of minutes) then it will randomly disconnects. I have to disconnect the USB and reconnect to use my mouse for a couple of minutes. What is very strange to me is the red led turns off then you can press the left click button and the light turns on but the mouse does not work. This problem only occurs with safari, firefox, and chrome (the internet browsers I have tried). I uninstalled and reinstalled the apps ... nothing seems to help. I am at a lost.
    I have played a video game with the mouse on 10.9 for many hours with out a disconnection. This makes me think that the problem lay with any internet browser. I believe the problem is brought on by a heavy use of the scroll wheel on pages with a lot of data but what do I know. This laptop is brand new with minimal apps on it besides one game, mathematica, latex, and textwrangler. These are the only apps I downloaded and installed when I was using 10.8.5.
    Latex works. Mathematica works. Textwrangler works. Python works.
    All in all I can still use my laptop for my research/school work but this mouse problem is very annoying.
    When I installed mavericks I did not get any errors and the actually installation was very easy. After the installation I performed the 10.9 update that was available on the update page.
    I have never made a post before and I am sure more information is needed about my computer. Post what you need and I will be happy to reply with the needed information.
    Thank you in advance!

    Anyone have just the slightest idea on how to fix this issue? Is there an app that can get the drivers? If there does exist an app can someone guide me in a direction to just write my own app so I do not have to download someone elses work.
