Wierd issues with creative champion pcie

hi,
i just spent a few bucks on this awesome new soundcard and i've had nothing but problems after i bought it, it worked the first day after 3 driver reinstalls and by using windows update i finaly got it working! but the problems are not finished, i have cracking sounds and noises all the time when i play games and hear music, sometimes the music levels drop so it sound like music phases out, i dont have these problems with my stock motherboard sound, i also turned off the feedback thing for mic so it wont interfer with my speakers, so i have no idea what im doing wrong, i've tried disabling the stock soundcard (supremexfi) in bios and removed it completely and it didnt fix it the issues at all, i also pushed the cables from card to the I/O as hard as possible without breaking anything and i have the same issues without any changes, so im completely lost now on what to do
if anyone got some suggestion it would be great, or else i have to return this card and get my money back, because this isent what i paid for..
system:
Windows 7 home premium 64bit
4gb ram, 066mhz corsair dominator
asus rampage formula
intel QX6700
ATI sapphire vapor x 5870
X-Fi Titanium Fatalty Champion PCIe(with 2.7.7 driver)

,Re: wierd issues with creative champion pcieRsometimes it can be a bit bugged(in rare occasions noises) and i have to change from gaming mode to entertainment to fix that, and if i play any old title games it seems that sounds crackle all the time and i gotta do a full reboot to fix it.
so i really rounded up what to do and what to prevent(this happens with all drivers and its even worse with the newer ones so im using the very WHQL drivers from windows update)
looks like a RMA soon!
i appreciate the help! but not sure if i wanna make so many adjustments just to get some soundcard working.. just seem too much work for something i bought just to enjoy, sadly enough
creative: useless drivers, either fire the whole department or merge with asus is the only solution i can really predict would be a good change

  • Vista SP 1 Sound Issues with Creative Drivers

    Hi all, I recently switched to a X-Fi Elite Pro, with a Nvidia Video Card.
    Windows Vista SP (32bit)
    Intel Pentium D .8 Ghz
    2gb RAM
    XFX GeForce 8600 GT 52mb running
    Creative X-Fi Elite Pro
    (it's been a while since I've needed this kind of support so let me know if more info is needed)
    Anyways, from the moment Vista plays the logon sound there is static crackling and chirping noises whenever there is audio playing at the same time as any kind of visual change on the screen (not every screen update). For example videos on websites that play them as plugins are especially static-y. However, playing a fullscreen game (i.e. World of Warcraft) does not produce the static.
    Interestingly, I have now tried two different video cards. The Nvidia and now a ATI Radeon, both have the same identical problem. I first thought that it might just be a Nvidia Issue but this is not the case
    I have checked for IRQ conflicts and none exist that I can find. I have updated Windows as much as I think I can. I've tried changing Creative drivers as well.
    Any advice is appreciated.Message Edited by djscotty on 0-04-2009 05:7 [email protected]

  • Issues with Creative Cloud for teams deployment workflow

    The Adobe Creative Cloud for teams IT Deployment Guide lists out steps for IT admins to deploy the CS6 applications and then have their end-users license the trial software with their Adobe IDs once they have been invited to the team. There are two major issues with this document.
    First, the media that is on the FTP is not for North American English. We are working to get that posted on the FTP site ASAP. In the meantime, you can find the CS6 MC media from: http://www.adobe.com/downloads/
    [Note: Getting media from that page requires the use of the Adobe Download Assistant which is very consumer focused. Sorry about that.]
    Second, in order to have the ability to login properly with a Creative Cloud for Teams account the system needs to have the latest copy of Adobe Application Manager installed. If you do not do this step the end user will be prompted for a serial number.
    Unfortunately the Adobe Application Manager can’t be packaged with AAMEE nor is it a native installer. I know, I know! Here are the links to the Adobe Application Manager installers:
    Windows: http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/detail.jsp?ftpID=4773
    Mac: http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/detail.jsp?ftpID=4774
    It can be installed from command line by:
    Win: <Path to Setup.exe>Set-up.exe –mode=silent –action=install
    Mac: <path to ASU> /ASU/Install.app/Contents/MacOS/Install –mode=silent –action=install
    Jody Rodgers | Sr. Product Manager | Creative Cloud for Enterprise | Adobe Systems

    Hi Boncker,
    I see that you have an active Subscription under your account . Please launch any of the installed product and when you get the trial prompt , please click on License this software and then Enter the Adobe Id & Password for the account that you have accepted the invite .
    Please do let us know if that worked for you or not .
    Cheers,

  • Multiple issues with Creative Cloud File Syncing

    I'm have issues with syncing files on my mac to Adobe Creative Cloud. I don't seem to have issues syncing via drag and drop to my web browser. I keep getting this error while syncing via finder:
    I also have a fairly complex PSD with folders that i'm toggling on and off using Layer Comps. I don't see any difference when switching Layer Comps within Extract in the browser. I do see the changes when turning on and off the folders though.. What's the deal with that?
    Why does it take so long to render the PSD after I turn on a folder or switch layer comps? It takes about 30 seconds to re-render, which is crippling for our workflow.
    This would be an amazing tool for our developers if these 3 issues were resolved.

    Thanks for the information.
    Could you now send me some log files please..
    The log files can be found here:
    Mac: /Users/<yourusername>/Library/Application Support/Adobe/CoreSync/
    Windows: C:\Users\<yourusername>\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\CoreSync\
    The logs have the date in the filename, like "CoreSync-2014-03-25.log". Please compress (zip) all the CoreSync-2014-MM-DD.log files and email them to me directly at [email protected]

  • Issues with Creative Cloud payment - Problemas al intentar pagar el abono de Creative Cloud

    La primera vez que adquirí el producto se realizó el pago, el segundo mes me llegó una notificación que no se había podido efectuar el pago, así que revise mi tarjeta de crédito y había cupo disponible, sin embargo la fecha automática de cobro ya pasó, y continua en 31/07/2013. Mi abono de Creative Cloud pasó a versión de prueba y ahora solo me quedan unos cuantos días...qué puedo hacer? por qué no está funcionando el pago?
    Gracias
    The first time I bought Creative Cloud there were no issues with my payment method, but second month I recieved some notifications due to a transaction error.  I check my credit card and it has enough funds for paying Creative Cloud. During this period the automatic pay day, changed to 31/07/2013; now I'm trying to make again the payment but there is no way to do it manually, My Creative Cloud subscription is now in test mode, and I just have 3 days until the test mode period ends. How can I try to pay again manually? why is this not working?
    Best Regards

    It may not be possible to manually update your payment details.  Could you please place a new order and get back to us if you have further issues.

  • FIRMWARE ISSUES WITH CREATIVE ZEN V P

    What is going on?!?!!
    Just about every other thread i've read on here somebody has my same problem:
    ) My Zen V Plus was not recognized by my computer and it was always stuck on "rebuilding library" when i turned it on but when it got halfway through, it stopped, and all the music i already had on it was inaccesible.
    2) I tried reformating, cleaning up, and, when i tried reloading the firmware,? my player became completely useless!!!!!
    Trust me guys, i tried everything else that was suggested on the threads prior to 3/3/08, i even e-mailed someone from CREATIVE,?but when i reloaded?the firmware, it was all over. To top it off, my warranty is no good anymore.
    But what surprises me more is the fact that so many have the same problem?and the?guys from CREATIVE still haven't figured out a solution.

    YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I FIXED IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
    I'm not sure how i did it but i will explain as best as i can.
    Okay, my problem was that my player was not recognized by my computer when i plugged it in, yet my player was in recovery mode when i plugged it in.
    So i went to the RECOVERY TOOL on this website. Like the previous times, it said my player wasn't plugged in. At that moment, i quickly unplugged my player and reformatted it, but while it was formatting itself i plugged it back in, while the RECOVERY TOOL was waiting for my player.
    Suddenly my Windows Explorer prompted me to choose if i wanted to sync it with windows media player or to just open the files it contained. I WAS SO SURPRISED! But was even more surprising was that the RECOVERY TOOL finally recognized it and i inmediatley updated my firmware...
    So there you have it guys, if you're having trouble like i was, just unplug your player when using the RECOVERY TOOL, start FORMATTING it and while it's formatting, quickly plug it back in.
    I hope this helps and thanks? for all of your tips and information.
    NOTE: my sync manager still didn't recognize the player but i think it has something to do with software compatability issues with Vista, even though it worked the first time when bought my player. But my Windows Media Player works just fine with it. :smileyvery-happy::smileyvery-happy::smileyvery-happy::smileyvery-happy:

  • Wierd issue with Sound Blaster Z and Windows 8.1

    I have just started having an issue with my sound card. For the past year it has been working perfectly fine with no issues. There have been no recent changes to the computer, but within the past week, if I am in the middle of a game or listening to music, the computer will once a day lock up, I then have to restart the computer. After it restarts, the right speakers, and only the right will not work, Center, Subwoofer, and Left side speakers work 5.0. I then go the Sound Blaster Z-series control panel and re-enable the surround sound. At this point the Center and Subwoofer cease to work, but the right side works perfectly fine. After a couple of resets the center and subwoofer still do not work. I then have to go to the back of the computer and change the cable for the center / subwoofer from left most to the second left most (as looking at the back of computer from the top side). It will work fine this way with all speakers working, for roughly a day then it will lock up again. I have to go through the same process, but move the cable from the second left most to the left most output for it to work again. I tried for the past two days to troubleshoot by removing all the software and creative drivers. Same issue after reinstalling with a fresh driver set. Any help, because this is completely annoying.

    Considering that there is already a ca0132 driver for linux, which was made to support chromebook pixel laptop. It should not be hard for creative to make that driver compatible with discrete cards and motherboards that make use of that chip. But Creative seriously dropped the ball on users and does not care about them. I do not understand this, because all previous creative cards are supported in linux. Steam OS and steam boxes are around the corner and Creative is missing a big opportunity.

  • Issue with Creative Cloud program itself - Won't launch

    Hi,
    I'm having an issue with CC.
    The app is launched and it opens. I enter the email address and password. It thinks for a while and then disappears from the screen.
    The icon is there in the systray and as soon as you click on it, the applications appears again but is blank and there is a small window on top of the main with the CC logo on it but that's all.
    End task is the option to close it.
    I searched the KM and saw a reference on deleting the OOBE folder in the Users area but all this did was to force it to ask again for login details and then did the same thing.
    I've had this issue previously and I think I uninstalled the CC app and reinstalled it. This forced ALL the installed adobe programs to be redownloaded and installed again, which I'm hoping to avoid that and having to sort out all the plugins again.
    Win 8.1
    i7 quad core
    32GB ram
    Could I please get some advice so I can get my daughter in action again?
    Thanks
    Screenshot attached.

    HollyTAust removing and reinstalling the Creative Cloud Desktop application should not cause you to need to reinstall you already installed Creative Cloud Desktop application.
    If reinstalling resolved your difficulties previously then please try removing and reinstalling the Creative Cloud Desktop application.  If you then face difficulties with your Adobe applications not being listed properly please see CC desktop lists applications as "Up to Date" when not installed - http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-cloud/kb/aam-lists-removed-apps-date.html.

  • Serious Issues with Creative Zen Vision M 3

    This all started when I was fast forwarding through a track and it freezes. So, I did reset and it's in recovery mode, whereas usually it will just restart again.So I tried turining it on and off and was still stuck in Recovery Mode. Tried plugging it into the computer, the computer doesn't recognize it. I did everything the website told me to, but my computer will not recognize that it is plugged into the usb. When I have it docked it will not let me do anything at all. I tried to clean it up and it stays in "scan disk" for hours,I tried to format it, knowing it would erase everything but hoping it would fix, and when I tried to format it, I got a message saying "harddisk problem", when I rebbot it simply reboots back to Recovery Mode and the other option I have is reload firmware, and it prompts me to start updating firmware, but my computer won't even recognize that it is plugged in , in the first place, so I am at a loss with what to do next. The best help Creative can give me is email support. As most of you probably have found out there is no technical support phone number, only for returns/exchanges. I am using Windows Vista if that makes a difference, which it probably does since nothing seems to work on Winows Vista, and when I look at My computer, it shows that the device is present, but yet I can't access it through any media source or when trying to install this firmware? garbage. Any help would be extremely appreciated. Thank you in advance. Sarah

    That is just crazy, I am so sorry....Mine was bought just this past June, my boyfriend bought it for me because ipods seem to have really negati've reviews when it came to needing repairs and so on...

I am still extremely annoyed though, it seems like the only option I have now is to send it in , and god knows how much it may cost to fix it. They really do have some customer service issues. They even elude that no matter if I am under warranty or not there is a possibility of "fees" ARGHHH!!!!

  • Communication Issues with Creative Webmaster

    Hello,
    Does anyone have an issue with trying to get a warrenty issue resolved with the Creative support staff? I bought a Creative MP3 last week and the cable was bad. I tried to bring this up to the Creative support staff and there webmaster, Galkowska Agata Ewa, keeps telling me that the warrenty has expired, even though I have proof I just bought the thing last week. I've had three generations of Creative Zen MP3s and this is my first experience with Creative customer service and I'm not impressed. I know I can buy another cable, but it seems that the Creative folks should be true to there policy.
    Tom Marsh

    Hello Qrtmoon,
    If you have the proof of purchase, I'm sure they will honor your warranty. Did you try to get in touch with support over the phone? If not, give them a ring. Sent you a PM with the contact details. Let us know how it goes.

  • I have three issues with Creative Cloud

    I have three issues with CC:
    1. I want to be able to EDIT my work when I don't have income. The desktop model supported this. The cloud model does not, and that is unacceptable.
    2. Adobe can keep raising the price, because they will be holding us all hostage. Sure at some point a percentage of CC users would drop off, but all that means is that Adobe can milk the absolute most from us using this model. It's not a vehicle for innovation, it's a vehicle for exploitation.
    3. F--- the cloud. I'll be keeping my work on my laptop, thank you very much.

    what's your home version (click help>about) and was that just a warning so you were able to open the file?

  • Issues with Creative Speaker Systems 7700 and 7800

    I have had very little success with Creative Inspire T7700 and P7800 speaker systems. The problems started when the left rear channel on my T7700 stopped working. I spent an hour or so localizing it down to the multi channel amplifier that's located in the sub woofer cabinet. I swapped the speakers around to see if the speaker was blown and I swapped the T7700 to my other computers to see if the problem was in my sound card (I have 3 computers 2 of them have Audigy cards and one of them has an X-FI sound card). The problem stayed with the left rear channel so it is definitely the T7700. Since it was off warranty I went and bought a P7800. After getting it home and unpacking all the speakers and making all the connections I found the left front channel non functional. I took that system back to the retailer and they exchanged it for another P7800. I brought that one home and found the right rear channel to be non functional. I returned that to the retailer and got my money back. I have several older speaker systems from Creative including a nice 5.1 channel system (the 5200) that has worked flawlessly for many years. My question is this: Why is the quality of these newer speaker systems so poor? And has anyone else had this kind of problem? So far I am living with the dead channel on the T7700 but would like to eventually get everything working again.

    p3dlow,
    Any speaker system that can receive input from a single 3.5mm stereo minijack should work with a MP3 player. Are you looking for a 2.1, 2.0, portable or docking station? Btw, exactly which player do you have?

  • Syncing Issues with Creative Cloud - No Solution - Please Reply

    I have spent over two hours with your live chat team in which they took over my computer, deleted files from the CMD prompt and I am still receiving syncing errors using Creative Cloud.
    They had me, delete files, restart my computer, sign-in and out of Creative Cloud, pause syncing, change file directories and nothing work.  My issue was then escalated to upper management in which I had to repeat the entire issue.
    I was passed around from multiple individuals in live chat and at the end, no solution was found.  I have been an Adobe client for over 15 years now and I am not pleased that a resolution still has not been found.
    I wasted over 2 hours on live chat and then received an email stating that my case was closed because the support team found a resolution!  This was completely untrue.
    I am asking someone from Adobe upper management to please contact me directly.  I will not spend more time with your live chat team and send more log files that do no good.  As a long-time client, please contact me.

    It may not be possible to manually update your payment details.  Could you please place a new order and get back to us if you have further issues.
    Thanks

  • Issues with Creative Cloud/ Flash CS6

    Hello, I've recently (Friday, March 15, 2013) restarted my subscription to Creative Cloud for Flash Pro CS6, but I haven't been able to open the application.
    However, I've contacted tech support (by phone and chat), but I still couldn't get any luck.
    What I've already tried (numerous times), but failed:
    Uninstalling and reinstalling Flash though the app manager
    Opening it through creative.adobe.com (still had the option for to "Try" it only)
    Updating Flash CS6
    Rebooting my PC
    Rebooting internet connection
    Opening Flash on another PC (still no luck)
    No matter what I tried, it kept taking me to the page requesting a serial code, when I'm supposed to have a subscription. I've had previous subscriptions to Creative Cloud and never had this problem until now.  What's really worse is, that the payment has already been posted and taken out of my card and yet I can't use what I paid for. It's an extremely unsavory feeling to pay $30.00 for something you can't even use. Sorry to sound blunt, but I could really use some help  (or a refund) to resolve this issue. I'd also appreciate it if you could let me know if you're having a similar issue and/or know of a workaround to the problem!
    Thank you and have a nice day!
    Crystal

    I've tried your suggestion, but unfortunately, I couldn't even get past the third step because I still wasn't able to open Flash, even when I did follow the first two steps. Just a thought: I have Photoshop Elements 9 installed, but I know that it's not part of CS, but could it possibly be something with PSE 9 interfering with the app manager? Though, I have had PSE 9, a trial of Illustrator CS5, and a subscription to CC for Flash CS6 installed on my computer once before, I had no problem whatsoever. But now I just have PSE 9 and (Flash CS6). I'm not sure if that has anything to do with the issue I'm having, but I just wanted to make sure.
    Anyway, I really appreciate your help! Thank you!

  • Trial mode and serial number issue with Creative Cloud

    Hello,
    I recently bought a CC membership but I seem to be getting the same trial mode/serial number window others have been receiving when trying to open a Creative Cloud app. I've already spoken with two Adobe techs without any resolves. I've uninstalled and reinstalled CC, I renamed an OOBE file that the tech suggested I do and looked into the Language preferences. I'm on an iMac 10.8.4.
    I'm really not technically minded but to me it seems like something continues to read my original CS6 trial I had previously. I've since uninstalled it but something remains perhaps My only thoughts at this point would be to make sure I have any recent files backed up then perhaps use Time Machine and revert back to before I installed CC then try installing again OR do the trial and hope once the 30 days are up it will read my paid account.
    I would really appriciate any feedback. I've used far too many excuses at work having missed deadlines due to this issue.
    Thank you

    Okay, I think I have it solved *fingers crossed* by following this:

    1. Please click on "Go" and navigate to /private/etc
    2. Open "hosts" file and check out for any entries for Adobe.com
    3. Remove the entries and save the file
    4.  try again launching any product from CS6
    Thanks

    I did a backup of the hosts file and labelled it "hosts-backup" and put it on my desktop, then made another copy of the hosts file (since you can't alter the original). This time I removed ALL the Adobe entries and named the file "hosts", and saved that to the desktop. I then replaced the original hosts file with the altered saved version by dragging it into the etc folder.
    I started up Flash cc and it worked! I've since downloaded PS cc and it's opened as well. I just hope it continues to function...
