Updated Audigy 2 Drivers bug reports: 32 and 64 b

I've installed the 64-bit and 32-bit versions of Vista. Here is my experience under each version of the OS installing the updated drivers.
64-bit version of the drivers: this is the simple explanation, I couldn't get the drivers to work. Upon starting the installation, I glanced at the readme that came up and noticed the directions to disable certified driver check (or whatever it's called). I followed the directions in the readme and rebooted the computer as it said to do. Upon reboot, I installed the drivers and rebooted the computer again. According to the speaker icon in the bottom of the screen, the drivers were installed and the system thought they were working. However, I never once heard any sound. The only problem I was everytime I booted the system, I always got an error message saying CTHelper wasn't running properly and had to be disabled or something along those lines. No matter what I tried, I couldn't get the sound to work.
32-bt version: I installed the drivers without turning off UAC or disabling the certified driver checking. In other words, I installed the OS and promptly installed the drivers. Upon reboot, I got 4-6 prompts saying some along the lines of "There were 2 unreleased IDrvBMixer interfaces". Once I hit OK on all the prompts, sound worked fine. 5. and EAX are working great here!! As Creative's website says, when I come out of standby I no longer have sound. Those prompts only came up during boot up after the initial driver install. Subsequent bootups have not produced those messages. No idea why.
Overall, I'm pleased with the effort. Keep up the good work Creative!

Did you write the initial boot.ini file or is it one that Windows automatically wrote for you?  Are the two OS's on the same HDD or on different HDD's?  Which OS did you install last?
The Windows written boot.ini has always worked fine for me.  If you installed Win 64 first and then Win 32, that could cause problems.

    Twice Georgio Maone deleted my negative, 1-star reviews about NoScript, claiming they were "misplaced bug reports." Is this acceptable Mozilla practice for developers to keep their ratings high by deleting low ratings?

    I have found that everything on Mozilla is subject to censorship and lots of it. If they dont like what you say then either your account will be disabled or the comment will be removed or both.

  • Trying to update Graphics drivers...and others

    Hello,
    I am having a few issues with my laptop.  Think I need to upgrade the graphics drivers. Possibly update other things as well.  Doesn't seem like it's any of the basic "Windows Updates" either.  When I download the Intel driver update, it tells me I need to go to the computer manufacturer...which of course is Toshiba...instead of thru them.
    Any guidance?  How do I update the graphic drivers and check for other updates, drivers or whatever else, for my Toshiba laptop?
    Laptop = Satellite P55t - A5118 running on Intel i7.
    Plz lemme know...thx.
    Dom

    Satellite P55t-A5118
    Downloads here.
    Get all your drivers from the Toshiba site above.
    Many use the Toshiba application "Service Station" to alert them for updates. It's already on your computer, but the latest version can be obtained from here.

  • Reader stops working when newest GTK2.0 installed - bug report and proposed fix

    Adobe Reader 7.0.9 (Linux i386) stopped working when I installed a batch of updates on Xubuntu Feisty Fawn (7.04). The updates included GTK 2.0, version 2.10.11. The symptom was that upon startup, Reader ended up in a seemingly infinite loop, printing out "expr: syntax error" (when started from terminal emulator). A few debug "echo"'s revealed that the loop concerned function get_gtk_file_ver().
    The bug itself is on line 418. The original line is as follows:
    echo $mfile| sed 's/libgtk-x11-\([0-9]*\).0.so.0.\([0-9]\)00.\([0-9]*\)\|\(.*\)/\1\2\3/g'
    - note that there is no '*' in the middle number-matching regexp, so the full expression matches only strings in which the "middle" group is 100, 200, ..., 900.
    At this point in the execution, $mfile contains the name of the gtk library .so, in this case, libgtk-x11-2.0.so.0.1000.11. In prior versions (e.g. 2.8.20, which is the current version in Ubuntu Dapper Drake LTS), the minor version had only one digit, and the regexp matched. When the minor version got incremented to two digits, the regexp no longer match because of the missing '*'! As an additional bonus, somehow this leads to the infinite loop (which is *not* good).
    A working fix is to add the missing '*' into the regexp. I'd say that a lot of Linux users will be tripping on this issue soon, at least those who keep current on security updates.
    I found no sensible way to contact the developers, i.e. a way that wouldn't have to pass a gazillion of customer-service and tech support people, who are most likely just as unaware of the issue as the users...
    I hope this issue will be fixed ASAP - after all, it's only one added character, and that'll save a lot of users a lot of hassle.
    (and btw, to have the intended effect, the dots in the sed expression should all be escaped with a backslash - now e.g. "libgtk-x11-2.0.sog0.1000.11" matches the sed regexp as well as "libgtk-x11-2.0.so.0.1000.11", but this probably isn't too critical...)

    The solutions provided here work, but by accident. The script compares 2104 (2.10.4) to 240 (2.4.0) and sees that it's greater. Adobe will have problems in future releases if the minimum GTK release is, say, 2.10.4 and the user has 2.4.0.
    I've crafted a more elegant solution, shown here in "patch" format. I think the reformatting and tab elimination done by HTML will preclude you from pasting this into a file and running "patch", but it's pretty easy to read and is short...

  • Bug report (and solution): adding multiple records through Java API in bulk

    I have found some bugs in the Java API (version 4.1.25) that makes it impossible to add mulitple values in bulk to a RECNO database. The fixes are as follows:
    MultipleEntry.java, line 80:
    "DbUtil.int2array(curr_off, this.data, pos);"
    should be replaced by
    " DbUtil.int2array(recno, this.data, pos);"

    Hello,
    It looks like there were some corrections to this area in the post 4.1 i.e. 4.2 release. And I do not see these same issues in the current 5.1.25 release. If you do find them in the current release, just let us know.

  • Updated Audigy drivers, now audio sounds stra

    It's hard to describe, it's not exactly an echo, but it's sort of like that. I don't have the Creative Mixer installed, so I can't check any settings there. Is there another way to troubleshoot this?

  • FAQ: How do I submit a bug report or feature request or otherwise give feedback about Premiere Pro?

    The best way to submit a bug report or feature request is to use the bug-report/feature-request form.
    The Premiere Pro team doesn’t  necessarily see and record every post on every forum and social network, but we do see, record, and track every entry  through the the official feature-request/bug-report form.
    It also helps a lot if you opt into the Product Improvement Program.
    Also, be sure to use the crash reporter.
    We really do read all of the bug reports and feature  requests, and the software really does get a lot of benefit from  detailed crash reports.
    Don’t forget about contacting Adobe Technical Support or Customer  Service, too. For information on how to contact Adobe Technical Support,  see this page. (Note that you must register your product before you can open a technical support case for it.)
    If you have tried to get help from our support staff, but the service  was inadequate, I can help you to escalate your issue if you send me  your case number at kopriva at adobe dot com. You must provide me  a case number. I am not offering to solve your problem myself; rather, I  am willing to forward your information to someone if you have already  hit a dead end with our Technical Support or Customer Service.
    If you have feedback about the content of the Premiere Pro Help document,  then please add a comment at the bottom of the relevant page. You can  add comments to add information, to add links, to make corrections, or  to ask for clarification.

    Oh, and I can’t resist this opportunity to remind you to update to  the most recent version of the application. Don’t be surprised when the  first thing that you hear back from us is that you need to install the  latest updates. We fix a lot of things in updates, and we don’t want to go chasing bugs that we’ve already fixed. We’ll keep you posted on our blogs, Facebook page, and Twitter feed about updates as they become available.

    Hi qwerty,
    Dun tink that creative customer support sucks cos I had been dealing with them in the past and I can say that their service are quite gd and fast. If you wanted a refund, I tink you need to contact the store that sells you the product. Dun tink creative will refund you though.

  • Updated to 10.4.10 and external hard drive is no longer readable...

    I was asked to install a few updates today when I booted up. I d-loaded like a good little soldier and installed and now my external Seagate drive is no longer readable. The prompt asks me if I want to initialize, ignore or eject the drive.
    Here are the updates...
    1.) About iMac Software Update 1.1
    This update provides important bug fixes and is recommended for 20-inch and 24-inch iMac models with 2.0, 2.4, or 2.8GHz processors.
    2.) Keyboard Software Update 1.2
    3.) iTunes 7.4.1 for Mac
    4.) Compatibility Update for QuickTime 7.2
    Is there anyone that would know why this is happening?
    Thanks,
    John

    It's hard to imagine why those updates would affect your Seagate drive - the iMac Software Update 1.1 was simply an update to the graphics drivers, and the other ones are self explanatory. Have you looked in the system logs to see whether there is any clue in there as to what is failing? (Open the Console application to view the logs).

  • Upstream Bug Reporting Etiquette [solved]

    I've a question.  Some distributions discourage upstream reporting by users so as not to overwhelm upstream developers and to provide a single cohesive point of contact for the distribution.  Errors are posted at the distro bug report site and are reported upstream by the maintainer.
    I get the distinct impression this does not hold true for Arch.  Before I go off promoting my bug reports upstream, is this proper?
    If so, the bug reports are likely to have references to Arch when describing the problem and how to reproduce it.  Since I am not officially part of the Arch developer / maintainer team, I do not want to represent myself as such.  Recommendations?   
    Thank you.

    FWIW, I think relying on package maintainers of a specific distro is unfair for those maintainers. They are already responsible for tracking the statuses of A LOT of packages and updating/patching them as necessary. If they were to go through every single bug reported and forward the relevant ones upstream, it would simply be overwhelming.
    Newbie-oriented distros like Ubuntu might have people that simply track user reported bugs. But for Arch, the situation is actually better since most users are proficient enough in Linux so they are more than capable of reporting a bug upstream

  • Vista "Problem Reports and Solutions" - Compatibility issues?

    The Visa +Problem Reports and Solutions control panel+ is reporting three problems which I cannot seem to be able to find a resolution to.
    ( So far I've just installed Vista 32 business ed. on my iMac 20". Installed bootcamp drivers, updated bootcamp to 2.1 and applied Vista updates.)
    *The Problem Reports and Solutions control panel reports the following:*
    1. Download and install the driver for Apple performance counter
    This problem was caused by Apple performance counter, which was created by Apple Inc..
    2. Compatibility issue between Intel 82801GBM (ICH7-M) LPC Interface Controller - 27B9 and Windows. This problem was caused by a compatibility issue between Intel 82801GBM (ICH7-M) LPC Interface Controller - 27B9 and this version of Windows. Intel 82801GBM (ICH7-M) LPC Interface Controller - 27B9 was created by Intel Corporation and is distributed by Apple Inc..
    3. Problem caused by Apple Desktop Null Driver.
    This problem was caused by a compatibility issue between this version of Windows and Apple Desktop Null Driver. This product is usually distributed by the company that manufactured your device or computer. Note. If you bought Apple Desktop Null Driver from a retailer and installed it yourself, you will need to contact its manufacturer.
    Are these genuine, and if so, is there a solution? No solutions are proposed by Vista itself.
    Mac OS 10.5.5 , bootcamp 2.1

    A performance counter is not something that is usually in use by any application except by the developers of the unit itself. nothing to be alarmed about (well, except perhaps that it should have been removed).
    A null driver is (as the name indicates) null, there is no functionality assigned with it. MS error message is just brilliant "there is an error in your null driver", like what, there is no functionality in a null driver. So no problems there either.
    I got the 2 above error messages on the very first generation 17" MBP for ages and so far not seen any impacts in it for my work.
    The Intel issue is interesting, it might be a good idea to see if Intel has an updated driver for the problem.

  • Bug report: vpn (ipsec) interface number in snmp always change

    Hi,
    this is a bug report for RV082 hardware version 3 and 4, firmware version 1.x, 2.x and 4.x (all latest versions). I hope someone from cisco/belkin reads it.
    Summary:
    The snmp interface number of a VPN Tunnel change when the VPN tunnel disconnect and then re-connects.
    What should happend:
    The VPN Tunnel number 1, should always have the same snmp interface number. In RV082 v4, this number should always be 10. For example, the LAN, WAN1 and WAN2 always have the same snmp interface number.
    What is the problem:
    The VPN Tunnel number 1 change the snmp interface number, from 10, to 11, to 12, etc.
    How to reproduce:
    create a VPN Tunnel using 2 RV082 or 1 RV082 and 1 RV042. Once the VPN Tunnel is connected write down the snmp interface number. A few days later, disconnect the cable of block internet access. Then restore the internet conection and write down the snmp interface number, you should note that the snmp interface number have changed.
    Tools used:
    PRTG Network Monitor
    Please take a look at the attached image, note all the "ppp" interfaces, theres only 1 VPN Tunnel (gateway-to-gateway) defined.

    Hi Tom,
    many thanks for your reply.
    I see that I have to call Tech-support, in order to report a very technical situation, explaining them this is a bug report and I want them to make a better product.
    Since I won't pay a dime for this problem to be fixed, I can only see pain in this path(calling to speak with a tech support representative).
    I also readed that Belkin has bought Linksys, so I don't know if the RV082 will remain with Cisco or will go with Belkin.
    So, my only hope is to document this bug, that is pressent inall firmware version and hardware version of the RV082 as of today.
    many thanks for your help,
    regards,
    Oliver

  • Bug Report: DW CS5.5 Crashes Every Time On An Image Map

    I am posting this in lieu of contacting Adobe support. I went to my account to send Adobe a bug report and was told I needed to contact support via phone. That's pretty crappy. As a licensed user who's owned it less than three months, there's no direct path to tell you guys that your software is broken?
    Here's the deal: I am working on an HTML landing page with one image map attached to one image. Literally, every time I make a modification to the code near the image (tied to the image map) then click into the live preview window, Dreamweaver CS5.5 crashes like a 70-year old on a bar of soap on the floor of the shower. It crashes hard. My only relief is to save the file before clicking into the live preview window. That's my only workaround to the problem.
    But I'm left amazed that I can crash it every single time over an image map, flicking from the code to the preview pane. You would think that at version 11.5, a minor thing like that wouldn't hemorrage the supposed creme de la creme of web design software.
    Here's the code I'm editing that causes it to crash:

  • HTML Snippet widget bug report.

    Dear Apple iWeb 08 Engineers.
    I didn't know where to send this bug report and so I have resorted to this forum. I hope it gets to you somehow.
    When creating a simple HTML Snippet in a page it seems that the piece of code that refers to the newly created widget in the .html for the page has a bug in it. For example, I have a page on my website called "Animation"; it has a simple HTML Snippet the code for which has been tested (by viewing the file widget0_markup.html in a browser). In Animation.html the following line appears
    <iframe id="widget0-frame" src=".//Animationfiles/widget0markup.html" frameborder="0" style="width: 100%; height: 100%;" scrolling="no" marginheight="0" marginwidth="0" allowTransparency="true"></iframe>
    Surely the pathname in the "src" option is in error (what the **** is .//?). If I change it to ./ by hand then everything works. Please change this asap, because at the moment I have to go into every page and change it by hand after publishing.
    Many thanks, Marvin.

    Thanks for the reply, but I'm afraid that I'm not convinced.
    In all the flavours of unix that I've ever used ./ is the current directory, ../ is the parent directory and ../../ is the grandparent directory (not .// as you suggest). In any case, the path name of source file in question is ./Animationfiles/widget0markup.html (assuming the code in question is in the file Animation.html) and so going up the tree into the grandparent directory is not what you want to do anyway; the directory Animation_files is always in the same directory as Animation.html and the file widget0_markup.html is saved, by iWeb upon publication, in the directory ./Animation_files.
    In short, I still think it's a bug, but thanks for the advice; I apologise if I am wrong.
    Marvin.
