Windows Vista, Audio and Recording Proble

I have just installed Windows Vista, and am having some serious problems with my audio. My problem is, that my mic does not function at all, and i have spent two days trying to fix this. My sound card is a Creative Soundbalster 5. sound card, and?apparenty will not work,?as it is supposedly?not Vista supported, but please, prove me wrong. I can only get sound output if i use intergrated, as there seems to be no drivers for 64-Bit VistaI?am using intergrated sound at the moment, and i can hear fine, but my mic will not work at all.
I have tried all the obvious options and as said, spent two days trying to fix it. As stated, i am running 64-Bit Windows Vista, and have a Creative SoundBlaster 5. that has no drivers.When i use intergrated, i get sound but the mic wont work.Any help at all would be appreciated, so please, help if you know anything. Thanks, Nos.

If you try the modded drivers by Daniel_K, you will get full functionality like in XP. But if you still want to have Vista's enhancements, then you should modify the Installation INF of the drivers.
I have detailed the necessary steps in this thread a long time ago.

Per microsoft forum discussions, I have removed everything apple on my computer to get this runtime error to stop.  When I tried to remove and reinstall itunes, I get an error message during installation and to try again. Has just become a cycle.  Apple, are you working on this?

  • Windows Vista ULT and Quicktime problem

    I apologize if this has been posted already, I did a search and found nothing so here goes...
    I just installed Windows Vista Ultimate and wanted to get iTunes and Quicktime running as soon as I could. I installed the latest version found on apple's website but every time I try to start Quicktime up, it does absolutely nothing at all. I try to click on a quicktime file and it does nothing as well. Even stranger, I try to uninstall quicktime and it hangs for a sec and then pretends I never asked it to do anything.
    iTunes crashes every time I try to run it but it WILL uninstall.
    Anyone know a fix to any of this?
    Mahalos plenty!

    Right, I read that article and did what they asked, but it didn't work and doesn't address the problem I have now.
    According to the info Apple provided on that article, it implies that iTunes and Quicktime will work with Vista. I can wait for an update if thats the case, I just want to make sure I'm not doing anything wrong.

  • Im trying to upgrade iTunes to v 10.6 on a windows vista pc and keep getting the error, "Invalid Drive /E".  What do I do to get past this?

    I'm trying to upgrade to iTunes v 10.6 on a windows vista pc and keep getting the error, "Invalid Drive/E".  What do I do to get past this?

    Open a Windows Command prompt, e.g. Hit Start > Run, type in CMD and press OK.
    Type in SUBST E: C:\<enter>
    This will map E: to C: until the machine is restarted or you enter SUBST E: /D at the command prompt. Now you can try uninstalling or upgrading the software again.
    (If upgrading software which lets you choose a location, install the software in the default location, not on the E:\ drive.)
    See here for more info.

  • Right-click with 2 fingers on Windows Vista taskbar and nothing appears

    I just updated my Bootcamp to 2.1, I thought it would solve my problem
    "Right-click with 2 fingers on Windows Vista taskbar and nothing appears" but I still have this problem, I cannot right-click on my windows vista at all.
    though, right-click on the notification area works.
    right-click = pressing the trackpad with 2 fingers.

    Now I have figured out I have to use 3 fingers instead of 2 fingers.
    but in the BootCamp Control Panel there is an option that says
    * Use 2 fingers for right-click

  • Have got a Windows Vista basic and had run a a trial version of LR4 on it - just purchased an LR5 without checking out the complete system requirements. Can I get a complete download of LR4 so that the money I've spent is not wasted. I am not interested i

    Have got a Windows Vista basic and had run a a trial version of LR4 on it - just purchased an LR5 without checking out the complete system requirements. Can I get a complete download of LR4 so that the money I've spent is not wasted. I am not interested in upgrading to Windows 7 currently.

    There are still retail packs of LR 4 to be found out there - for example, on EBay. It's just important to be careful whether it's a full version, an upgrade, or a student + teacher version. And to be certain it's genuine, and has a serial number which has never been activated before. The serial number that you get with that, should work with any 4.x version of LR, on either MacOS or Windows. And it will almost certainly be heavily discounted compared with the previous price direct from Adobe.
    Of course the other way is to upgrade to Windows 7 SP1, which should also be available discounted, and thus eke out the life of an older PC (I personally would not go to Win8 in such a case). Maybe pick up some RAM also, if that's a problem, provided you can do so cheaply (since that will be simply thrown away in due course, when you get a newer PC),
    Using LR4 instead of LR5 you do miss out on a few nice features, as well as potentially the Raw support and lens profiles for more recent camera equipment.
    LR 4 is obsolete as far as Adobe is concerned. They will not sell a Serial Number for it.

    I am using Adobe Reader X on a laptop with Windows Vista OS and Adobe Reader XI on an older laptop with Windows XP OS.  While filling out the same form on each computer, I have found that I can save info on the older laptop, but not on the newer one.  This is a big problem.  I must be able to save on the newer computer.  Do I need to buy a new computer with a more up-to-date OS?  Please help.

    Adobe Reader X can only save reader-enabled forms. Adobe Reader XI can save all forms.

  • Windows Vista Audio Driver Problem

    My Windows Vista Drivers that I got for my MacBook Pro from the installation disk have bad audio drivers. The sound on the speakers is too low, and the microphone won't even work. When I talk into the microphone while under Sound Properties in the Recording tab, it shows that the microphone is picking up sound. However, in Ventrilo, and Windows Sound Recorder, there is no sound from my microphone.
    I'm using Bootcamp 2.1. When will this problem be fixed? Will Apple release a new bootcamp version to fix this problem?? This is very important to me.
    If anyone has fixed this problem, please tell me how you did it.
    BTW, the audio device is called "Cirrus Logic CS4206A (AB75)"

  • Upgraded to Windows Vista computer and now my ipod won't show videos/pics

    I recently bought a new computer. Around the same time my ipod broke and I got a brand new one. Everything works on it except the videos and I can't sync any pics. The videos will show up in my recently added list, with the little tv pic but if click on it, I only get audio. The same thing happens under the recently added in my video playlist. However none of the videos, podcasts, or movies show up under their respective menus. All software is up to date, and all of the equipmnt is new. I'm at a loss. Please help.

    You need iTunes 11.1  or later
    See
    iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows

    Removing and Reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows XP
    or              
    Removing and reinstalling iTunes and other software components for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8
    However, after your remove the Apple software components also remove the iCloud Control Panel via Windows Programs and Features app in the Window Control Panel. Then reinstall all the Apple software components
    - Then do the other actions of:

    :\Yeah, i have the onboard sound disabled in the Bios, i've also disabled everything 'not used' in the control panel(sounds)because some people said that the buzzing sound could be some signal interference caused by unused ports or something.
    These two are bugging me mostly at the moment and then there's also the fact that i can't enable any enhancements because i get ram leakage.. also the crackling sound thing happens pretty randomly and then fixes itself, i have yet to figure it out..
    EDIT: Perhaps i am missing something?Should i install anything else apart from that driver & control panel?driver download also includes the control panel, which works perfectly fine.What i did before installing the driver was: uninstall everything creative related using the included CD as they suggest, then delete every single creative app, directory etc.. boot in safe mode, run driversweeper for creative, restart, clean the registry with ccleaner.. restart and THEN install the drivers, with antivirus etc disabled.So there's no way something went wrong on that department :P :P

  • Windows Vista 64 and Itunes/Ipod

    Evening all,
    Was wondering if anyone has had any issues using Itunes or an Ipod with Windows Vista 64?
    Cheers

    This was a small issue within WinXP. Maybe the solution for that would work with Vista.
    If you get any message about "Another User", an "iPod Service Error" alert appears, or “Please reinstall iTunes" appears, turn off the 'Fast User Switching' - even if no one else is using the computer (Win XP environment).
    ==>Start=>Control Panel=>User Accounts=>Change the way users log on and off ==> Remove the check mark from FUS.
    See: http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=93764

    Best of Luck

  • Windows Vista Ultimate and Error -42018

    Hi there,
    I upgraded to Windows Vista Ultimate about a month ago. I was trying to play music and download new content and the new content downloads would stop with -42018 - unexpected error.
    I had to run the compatability wizard and allow Windows XP SP2 settings with administrator access to correct the issue.
    I also lost most of my licensing when I upgraded. Hold off for I-Tunes to work with Vista if you are thinking about upgrading.
    And on a side note, I think that the new Windows Media "Experience" in Vista is not all that great.
