Windows 2000 and Soundblaster Audigy 2ZS probl

When I go to set up my Inspire T7700 7. speakers my highest choice in the control panel is 5. on the speakers? Is this a limitation of Windows 2000? I have the latest updates for 2000 on both the service packs and latest driver updates for the card. I was using this card in an XP system before and I did not have this problem. I was able to select 7. when using XP.

Why bother with Microsoft?
They didn't even add in 6. in Windows XP
Seriously, use Creative Speaker Settings.

  • Connecting Soundblaster Audigy 2zs to Home Theater Amplif

    Can I connect my Soundblaster Audigy 2zs directly to an amplifier and still get 5.,6.,or7. speaker setup? I feel it's kind of redundant to use a reciever when the Audigy has all the capabilities of a Home Theater Reciever. And it outputs sound at 92khz, which currently is only available on more expensi've recievers.
    My goal is to use my pc as a souce and connect it directly to amps and speakers. I would like to put money I save on recievers into a high end speaker system
    I have read in the previous posts that it may be possible to do 5. by getting an mini jack to RCA adapter for each channel. But no details on 6. or 7..

    I am in the same situation as you. As the CL told me
    http://forums.creative.com/creativelabs/board/message?board.id=soundblaster&message.id=5343 --
    You can either use the audigy to decode the sound or your reciever to decode the sound with the SPDIF passthrough. Just whichever has the better specs.
    From my situation I would recommend having speakers with analog hookups to the front/rear/center sub rather then the digital output. The only way to take advantage of the digital output is with a DVD and in that case you can just watch a DVD on your TV rather then your computer. For games the analog 5. hooks is better as well because with games it decodes it and with your reciever it would only have 2. sound.

    Exemple:
    domain name domain1.com
    and User Logon Name (pre-Windows 2000) Domain2\user

    If you have trust in place, then also you can use trusted domain name to login from trustee domain. Also, UPN suffix can be added.

  • Why will a stand alone executalbe with an installer work on windows 2000 and crashes on windows xp professional?

    When I run the setup.exe file on a Windows 2000 system it installs properly, but the same file run on a XP Professional system I get an error stating Fatal Error: Installation ended prematurely because of an error.
    See here for more information on the specific installer I'm trying to use.
    In fact I get this error for any stand alone executable I try to install on any XP machines. I am using LV 7.1. Is there a way to manually install eve
    rything?
    Thanks

    Sure you can Install a lv application manually. just copy the exe-file,
    support files in a folder. For the runtimeengine just copy the file
    lvrte.dll in the folder of your application or in the windows system folder.
    Hope that helps, Niko

    Hi, anyone can tell me how to open a CD - ROM FOR windows 2000 and XP Version 1.1b Software by Softwire LTD?

    Then you will need a copy of XP running in a virtual machine, or possibly bootcamp depending what Mac OS you're currently on.
    Rather expensive way to do it, but if it's Windows software, you need Windows.

    Posts from other threads in this group suggested using VC++'s vcvars.bat for setup.
    That solves the stdio problem, buildclient now works for me.

  • Separate between windows 2000 and xp

    Hi!,
    In Zenworks 3.2 I want to filter between Windows 2000 and Windows xp
    machines. As a result I want Windows 2000 machines to be imported in a
    different container then Windows xp machines, but unfortunately windows
    2000 en windows xp are on one tab. How do i separate?
    Do i need zen 4 or some kind of snapin?

    Okay Thanks for your reply.
    But what about nal objects? For example Microsoft patches. You don't want Xp
    patches to be rolled out on 2000 machines. So filtering on file existence is
    the only way?? for example C:\windows\explorer.exe for xp and
    C:\winnt\explorer.exe for 2000.

  • Windows 2000 and ODBC errors

    I received "ODBC call failed" errors with client machines running Windows 2000 and Oracle 7.3.4 or 8.1.5 or 8.1.6, though I have used the same setup procedure with Windows 95 and Windows 98 and those Oracle releases without problems.
    Are there any known problems with Oracle 7.3.4, 8.1.5 or 8.1.6 running on client machines with Windows 2000? If so, are there workarounds for this problem?

    Double-check the 8.1.6 release notes, but I don't believe any of those releases are certified on a Win2000 machine. I believe you need 8.1.7.

  • Creative L3500 Speaker system and Soundblaster Audigy 2 ZS Soundcard (I have a driver probl

    Yes I have had a driver problem so i went to the download section of this site and picked up a driver program for my soundcard yet it doesn't work. When i do uninstall my soundcard (i need to uninstall current driver to install new driver)and i restart my comp after removing the old one i get sound, but i notice i don't get very good sound, not as good as my old before it stoped working. But then after i install new one it just doesn't work!
    Please help me if you know about drivers!!!!
    PS: I use windows XP and if you need any more info just request it from me.Message Edited by Nick345 on 02-28-200605:05 PM

    JRe: Soundblaster Audigy 2 ZS Platinum - Speaker issues not covered by FAQs0 I'm afriad that the CMSS3D option did not work? ? I still cannot get any speakers to play out of the rear of the soundcard.
    As I said before, the goal is to try to get sound to play out of both the headset and the speakers attached to the rear of the soundcard simuntaneously.
    The headset is plugged into one of those devices in the front that is in a 5 & /4" bay that has the individual knobs for adjusting volume for the headset and outbound levels for the microphone.
    The speakers are plugged into the back of the soundcard and do not play any sound in any of the sockets, starting from the firewire port and counting 3 over.
    Any suggestions? I? thought it might have something to do with the setting of the speakers from control panel - > Sounds and Audio Devices -> Advanced and picking the right choice there. No luck however. Same for the Creative Speaker Settings as well.
    I'm at wits end and I'd be very thankful to whoever can resolve this for me. =)

  • [Soundblaster Audigy 2ZS] Sound cutting out in middle of gamepl

    I have Vista, and I never had this problem with XP.
    I downloaded the Vista drivers and have ran Windows Update for all the missing drivers.
    When I run dxdiag.exe
    I go to the sound tabs and find this.
    The file ctaud2k.sys is not digitally signed, which means that it has not been tested by Microsoft's Windows Hardware Quality Labs (WHQL). You may be able to get a WHQL logo'd driver from the hardware manufacturer.
    For Sound
    and Sound 2
    Sound 3 says everythign is fine.

    I've found that Audigy series cards "cut out" if you alter speaker properties in Vista Control Panel.
    Creative umm... bug I think that's what they call it...
    For example
    I find 6bit, 48000 Hz (DVD Quality) is the highest quality I can set.
    I've seen it on Audigy 2, Audigy 2ZS and Audigy 4. Win32 and Win 64.
    Is your adapter set to studio quality If so - that's most probably it.
    Hope this helps.

  • Ultra lanparty d & soundblaster audigy 2 probl

    hello, I show up, this it is my first post, I don't dominate English well so to forgive me.
    Good because I have a fat problem with a soundblaster audigy 2 and a dfi lanparty ultra-d. It is that after installing the drivers of the sound card time and again up-to-date and to have the rest of up-to-date drivers follows me giving the same error time and again. The sound is listened bad, as distorted, sometimes quick and other times nr. I have proven in other badges with different chipset and it works perfectly. Is some type of incompatibility between the chipset and the sound card?
    In the dfi forums they did recommend me to upgrade the drivers through of CD (li've update) but does the problem persist, can somebody help me? Thank you.

    I can install my Audigy2 ZS drivers fine, but I still only get sound from 6 of my 7 speakers (T7700 speakers). I think my onboard audio is still being used, which is 6. capable, but I have already disabled it in my BIOS. I read that the Audigy2 and XP SP2 don't work together, is that true? If so, is there any workarond (other than reinstalling Windows XP with SP or less)?

  • Correct ITunes version for Windows 2000 and Nano

    My daughter just got a Nano for x-mas and is not recognized by old I-tunes software. I assume I need a newer version. However, 8.x that is advertised as latest version does not mention Windows 2000. I can't find any info on what version of ITunes I need or if there is one even compatible with both 2000 and the Nano. Can anyone tell me? I am incredibly frustrated by the lack of info on this and the lack of info in the user's manual. I see there are several different versions/generations of Nano, but have no idea how I am supposed to know what I have. I am not computer illiterate, but find this site poor at explaining questions like; how to tell what generation of Nano one owns, what version of I Tunes is necessary to synch with that version of Nanao, and is that version of ITunes compatible with ones operating system.
    Can someone tell me what version of ITUNES I need (or if it is even possible)and where I can find it? Thank you if anyone can provide this info that Apple chooses not to make easily accessible.

    So does this mean the IPOD is useless unless I get a whole new operating system so I can get the latest ITUNES?
    I also found a fact sheet about what to do to re-install USB drivers if the IPOD isn't recognized by the computer (which it isn't), followed the instructions and it still is not recognized! Is there a place those drivers can be downloaded so I could try something other than ITUNES for putting music on?
    I still contend that MAC does a horrible job of explaining these issues to people when they are buying. I've spent about 4 hours looking at help pages and have yet to see one that mentions minimum system requirements (ie Windows 2000 is not supported) and what, if anything can be done about it. I spent about a half hour trying to locate an e-mail help/customer service address to ask these questions and let them know about my frustration, but all I could find was the phone number, for which I only get one call! I don't have time to spend this much time trying to track this info down. My first computer was a MAC and talked for years about how great they were, but this lack of easy access to basic info/customer service has soured me on them. Sorry about the rant. Thanks for any help. While I am not a computer nerd, I work with them enough to know how to get around.

  • Audigy 2zs probl

    Hi there,
    I've been having an issue with my Audigy 2zs card lately. I transferred it into a new computer (worked perfectly in the old one) and now it works flawlessly for some programs and terribly on others. I'll compare 2 games, Il-2 Pacific Fighters and Rome:Total war. Both are extremely hungry games when it comes to system resources and will happily consume every bit of processing power and memory I throw at them! My Sound in IL-2 is flawless, absolutely perfect. However, when I try to play Rome:Total War the sound goes to crap. I get stutters, crackling, distortion, it's so bad it makes the game almost unplayable (at least with sound).
    I tried all the suggestions in the sticky; I reinstalled the card, made sure it's not sharing an IRQ with anything else, turned off all the extra hardware, etc. I am at a complete loss as to why it is doing this.
    The games I used are just an example of 2, like I said... Some stuff it works fine on, other stuff it is just terrible (same problem though, on the games it doesn't work with) but these were all games that worked fine with it on the other computer. I don't think it's a system wide problem because it is selecti've as to what it works with and what it doesn't. Anyone have any ideas?
    Thanks in advance for the help!

    Are you using AA when playing Rome Total War? If your graphics card bogs down it may also stall the rest of the system including sound. This doesn't happen in all games due their different working nature, but graphics settings may affect sound settings in others. (or it could be the developer wanted to have sound always synchronised with video, but if the graphics card begins to fall behind it will also cause the sound to stutter).
    So play around with your graphics settings to see if it hel
    ps.
    PS: Are you getting the problem with all sound options or just with EAX 3.0? Test the other options as well to isolate the problem if possible.

  • Windows 2000 and Oracle 8i (8.1.6) In stall problem

    Hi,
    I have installed oracle 8i on a windows 2000 server. I have problem configuring a client machine to access the oracle database using service names.
    I configured the service name using net8 assistant. When I try to access the database it gives me a TNS:Protocol Adapter error.(ORa 12560).
    I spoke to some dba and they said its windows 2000 problem.
    I did not have problems configuring a service name from the same client machine to a oracle database installed on windows NT(service pack 5).
    I am able to access the database on windows 2000 through sql plus/other oracle application after I configured a service name using TCP/IP protocol.
    I also able to access oracle databases installed on other windows nT machine from the Windows 2000 server client apps.
    any suggestions ?
    Thanks
