Vista rc1 and live 24bit,

Can someone tell me if its possible to get this card working on vista rc on 64x. I have been trying for 2 days and cant submit my review till i sort this out. i really dont want to have to download the 32bit version. i have found vista stable so far but i need this driver badly.

Short answer, no. Long answer, yes.
Don't use the Vista x64 drivers. Install the XP Pro x64 drivers.
IF the installer doesn't work (it crashes for me) do the following.
Download and install a Zip program such as 7z (it's free).
Use 7z or whatever to extract all the compress files from the XP x64 download to some folder on your desktop.
Open Device Manager, right click on the media device (I foget the term Vista uses exactly) and click Update Driver Software.
Choose browse my computer and click on the browse button and point to the extracted folder. Make sure you check "Include Subfolders"
Click next and that should do it. Restart. No need for F8.
Sounds are good. I don't have any fancy speaker setup, just standard setero.
I'm sure there are other ways to get it to work, but that's how I did it.Message Edited by Thrawn05 on 09-08-2006 06:43 PM

Vista RC1 and itunes authorizations

Has anyone else upgraded to Vista RC1? I just did yesterday, and now whenever I try to play a song I bought on itunes, it asks me to authorize this computer. I enter in my password and it tells me that the computer has been authorized, but when I go to play the file it tells me I am not activated again. The cycle doesn't end.
Any suggestions?

I have the exact same problem. All Apple Support will do is suggest I unistall and re-install iTunes. I have done so three times and even taken off all my music and it still won't work.
I am hoping some future build will resolve it. In the meantime, I am not using iTunes.

K8N Diamond Plus' Audio drivers 4 Vista RC1???

Guys i need to find drivers for RC1 Vista for my built in Mother board creative Audigy SE on K8N Diamond Plus. Can any one help me where to find these drivers????????

well i installed the vista RC1 and downloaded the Audigy Se's vista RC1 drivers from creative's web site and i installed it on my system and it detected my motherboard's audigy SE as audigy live 24 bit but there was no sound so i updated the driver and i gave the path of my window's xp driver and it worked for windows vista RC1. and my sound card is now dectected as audigy SE not live 24 bit. thanks to msi for making a driver which works with both xp and vista RC1. i ll try to install the Xp's driver directly on Vista with setup.exe, and will see if this will give me all the sound configrations which we do see in windows xp. But i still request MSi to provide us good vista drivers.
I have one question,
CAN WE INSTALL AUDIGY SE's DRIVERS DOWNLOADED FROM WWW.CREATIVE.COM FOR AUDIGY SE BUILT IN SOUND CARD OF DIAMOND PLUS MOTHERBOARD(FOR WINDOWS XP) ?

IPod Mini and Windows Vista RC1

Ok, so I connect my mini to my Vista RC1 machine (FULL PC, not BootCamp), then went to bed. A few minutes later, the mini's screen lights up like I just connected it to the machine, then the main ipod folder opens up like it was set to hard-drive mode. For some reason, the iPod keeps reconnecting to the computer. I can't figure out how to stop it. Any help would be appreciated.

Hello pc1971,
And welcome to Apple Discussions!
Have you tried some of the basics such as plugging it into different USB ports on your computer or try a different USB Connector Cable?
Maybe try resetting the device with it connected to your system. To do this, toggle the hold switch on and off, and then press and hold the Menu and Select (Center) buttons together for a few seconds until the Apple logo appears.
Otherwise, I would continue working through the recommend troubleshooting steps provided in this Apple support document.

Mac Pro 6 GB, Parallels 1910 and Vista RC1

Hi all,
My 15 days trial expired yesterday so I couldn't try 1908, I've tried the first day two weeks ago and it was not working.
So I'd like to know if somebody installed this config : Mac Pro 6 GB, 1910 and Vista RC1, since to test it I have to buy it, I will if it works.
Thanks,
Peloche,

I've installed Vista RC1 5728 32 bits, installation was fine.
I can't make the network to work, Vista doesn't find any network adapter altought Parallels is emulating Bridged Ethernet at en0: Ethernet Adapter Type Reaktek 8029(AS).

I believe that if I could access to Internet I'll be able to install NVidia 7300 GT driver and get a good resolution ?
Thanks,

Why my device control on my K8N Diamond plus did not have the decoder tab?
Maybe that's why I can't get 5.1 sound from my digital speaker...

Looks like you don't have the right software drivers installed. Instead of the nVIDIA Audio drivers, you should be installing the Creative Labs drivers from the enclosed driver CD-ROM, the separate one from the MSI disk. Next go to Creatives site and run all the updates from their Auto-update service.
You should be able to select the tab shown above as I also see it. Each selection also works for me so I can say that the Dolby decoding does work.

WIndows Vista RC1 (No Drivers)

Well, hey there.
I've just installed Windows Vista RC1 (March 2009). It's pretty recent.
I went ahead and installed my Boot Camp drivers, but lo and behold nothing installed. I figured it was a botched installation, formatted that partition, and started again.
So, I have tried once again and I am having all kinds of problems. For some reason I can't change the brightness of my monitor or keyboard (both are max all the time) and much of my hardware is not recognized. (By 'much' I mean 'all'. I manually installed a wireless driver.)
Vista installs smoothly, I go about installing the BootCamp drivers and the installation window itself says it's installing each component, but the device manager isn't changing at all. Everything remains "Generic" & "Unrecognized".
I just want Vista to play some games so I can blow off some steam & to do some 3ds Max stuff for college.
Why is this simple process of installation so difficult?
This Apple business is becoming very stressful very quickly.
What I want is some regular old drivers for my stuff to work, there's nothing unique about the hardware so why is it so awkward and frustrating & difficult to get drivers? At best, can someone maybe tell me what kinds of hardware would be in the late 2008 MacBook Pro & how do I get my brightness adjustments to work?
And also, why don't Apple just have individual drivers for download: Nearly every other manufacturer & vendor does (Dell, HP, Sony, Lenovo, Acer, etc.. They use third party hardware and drivers too).

I don't have a MacBook series, and in the folder "Apple" are drivers for various devices.
Try to install directly. If not try using Device Manager to update.
And try running system file checker just for good measure
*sfc /scannow*
and follow that up with hardware check of your boot partition (schedule chkdsk).
Whether you can install Nvidia drivers manually or not, that would help.
And DO create system restore points and backups.

Vista-scan and fix?

When I connect my 5th Gen ipod to the notebook i get a message from Vista asking whether it wants me to scan and fix my device. I have downloaded the latest MS Vista updates and patches but this still occurs.
Looking on the web I have seen a solution using chkdsk from the command prompt and have tried that as well. It too doesn't work for me. The response I get is that the device is using "RAW" format and that chkdsk is unable to work in this format.
My ipod and itunes are up to date because I had to download the latest version when i purchased this computer and I also update regularly.

I am having the same problem on my not-quite-2-year-old 5th generation. It's combined with an "Unknown Error -69" message that won't let the iPod sync, even though it shows as connected in iTunes. This just started with the update to version 8 iTunes. Today I have spent over three hours trying all the patches, including the Vista ones, but nothing works and NOW when I plug the iPod in (to both my laptop running Vista and my husband's, running XP) it refuses to do anything, saying the iPod is corrupted, and I need to restore. I restore, nothing happens. Basically I have a $300 paper weight - and since I restored, nothing is on it at all now.
I am beyond frustrated - we really can't e-mail or have a live chat with Apple techs? WTH kind of customer service is this?
Has anyone else had this issue? ANY other ideas?

No graphics in vista using media live AM2

I have just built my second media live, based on AMD Athlon 64 X2 4850e 2.5GHz Socket AM2 and 4gb of 667mhz crucial memory - see see http://www.ebuyer.com/product/142387
and 1TB Samsung Green HDD.
My first Live, would not play any videos at all, just go mozaic type images when playing a video source. so i sent this one back, assuming it to be faulty.
got a replacemnt yesterday - it was running v 1.4 bios, so in order for my amd processor to work, i updated the bios to 1.63, great i thought, firstly i loaded up windows xp media edition, seemed to be going great, but when i when i loaded up media center, the screen went black, and just started to break up.
right then so i installed vista ultimate, and that was even worse. it seemed to load ok, but when it finally finished, it just gave a broken screen image, the only thing i could do is switch it off.
I cant believe 2 of these machines can be faulty?
Could it be the memory? im using 2, x 2gb sticks in slots 1&2. see http://www.ebuyer.com/product/142387
i tried taking one out with a view to diagosing the problem, but that made no effect. Is 667mhz fast enough?
or do you think this is faulty. please this is doing my head in... or should i just buy a riser card and put a pcie card in?
thanks in anticipaton.
john

Just tried some kingston 667 1.8v and same in all slots.
tried slot 1 only, 1 and 2, 1 and 3, 1 and 4, 4 only.
cant believe it came be the ram.
i think there must be a fault, it came with bios v1.4 and i upped it to 1.63. when i get a replacemtn should i keep it on 1.4?
if that does not work then the next step will be a duel pcie/pci riser i think

Sound Blaster Live 24bit External - No B

I am hoping that someone can help me here. I am running Windows Vista Ultimate and have my PC setup purely as a Media Center machine. It has an onboard Intel 5. Sound Card that was producing average sound, but works 00%?I have since installed my Li've 24bit External, I first ran the CD and then realised that it was not Vista software so I downloaded the updated drivers and software. First I removed the old software and then installed the newer version. Now everything seems to work and when I test all the speakers via the?drivers / control panel?they all work - including the sub. When playing anything via Media Center or Media player, I get no bass what so ever. - I have even tried 5. DTS DVDs?I have subsequently plugged the speakers back into the onboard card and the sub works. Any suggestions?Thanks in advance.

Yes, it will work. It'll wind up setting your USB ports to 6 bit by default, because it's going to be taking alot out of them, but it'll give you some beefy surround sound none the less. On the down side of this external card though, it's giving me a ton of **bleep** about ventrilo and fra
ps.
:/About to make another topic pretaining to that ina few though.

Qosmio G20-127: Hotkeys & Fn buttons don't work with Vista RC1

This problem is really annoying me. Neither the Hotkeys(play, pause, forward, record, brightness) nor the Fn Buttons work since I installed windows vista RC1.
I need to find a solution for this issue. If anyone has experienced it please provide me with feedback.
Also the ConfigFree seems to be incompatible with Windows Vista, if anyone knows a trick or two I'd be most thankful

Hi Shaker
There is no trick or two!
Do you know that the Windows Vista RC1 is not an official end version and the RC1 version contains about 1500 bugs!
Furthermore to use the Toshiba features like the FN buttons or the hotkeys you will need the Toshiba drivers. BUT you will not find any Toshiba drivers for the Windows Vista at this time.
Why? Because the Windows Vista is not official on the market. Therefore if you want to use the Vista at this time on your notebook you have to use it without the Toshiba options.
But Im sure that you will get the Toshiba drivers if the Windows Vista was fully developed and official to buy.

Windows Vista RC1 + iTunes 7

Hey,
I was just wondering if anyone knows what i can do with my iTunes. Here's my problem...
I'm using Microsoft Windows Vista RC1 x64. I've installed iTunes and I can use the iPod as an external storage device, as I always could with Windows XP Pro SP2. However, when I add music to the iTunes (from such as a CD that are stored in my Music folder), it "looks" as if it's uploading the song but it isn't.
I have the iPod as manual update, so i drag a track over, and it has the progress bar at the top centre saying "updating ipod, do not disconnect" so that's all well. But once that's finished updating, if i try and search for the track on either iTunes or my iPod, it's nowhere to be seen!
Does anyone have any ideas as to how i could solve this situaion or anything? (Other than restoring my iPod). I just want to really know if iTunes and iPod works with Windows Vista RC1 as i know there are some glitches in some programs running on Vista.
Thanks,
Chris.

Ok, uninstalled 7.0, put back 6.0! if anyone has same problem, or any problems with their ipod and itunes and is using 7.0 for god sake use 6.0!! 7.0 is poo! If you can't get access to 6.0, email me: [email protected] ill happily help you out.

K8N Diamond Plus & Vista RC1

Upgraded from XP sp2 to MS Vista RC1 - upgrade seemed to go smooth. Only real issue at this point is with the on-board audio. It appears that it only sees two channels - additionally the audio for the tv tuner card is not working as well. Went to the Sound Blaster site - tried their Vista beta drivers - at which point Vista could not detect any sound card. I have not been able to find any Vista drivers for the mobo on the MSI site. Is anyone else testing Vista out on this mobo?

I should update my signature. Because of the fan noise on the GT7900's - I replaced them with Zalman fans - which take up more real estate and I was no longer able to get the X-Fi card to fit in the remaining pci slot. So I dumped the X-Fi card and went with the on-board audio. I have tried several different drivers from Creative - I can now get the card to work albeit - only with 2-channels. When I try to configure it - my only options are either 1 or 2 channels so I think its driver related. I am thinking of trying a low profile sound card -which I think will fit even with the Zalman fans however, the only low profile sound cards I've been able to find so far have been on the cheap side. The one plus with going with a low profile card is getting a game port - which the on-board audio does not have.

Did you actually watch the movie? You get 30 days in which to view it and if you didn't watch it, that could be why you are getting that message. If you have watched the movie and you're sure that is has expired by now, contact iTunes Store Support and seek their help.
