Won't recognize card.... please read and he

I bought my Mom a Sound Blaster li've! 5. PCI card. She's running a 500 MHz comp w/ 444 MB Ram with Windows 98... very old machine. I did not get an installation CD with the card, so I downloaded the Standalone file from this site. When I try to run the file, it reads 'Sound Blaster Li've! 5. not detected'? and says something about the file being used for Li've! 5. only. I have tried downloading the driver files;? they install, but I get no sound... and in the device manager it says I have a PCI sound card but won't recognize it. Should I clean boot, send the card back, or are there other things I can try?

  • I just purchased a lightning to sd card camera reader and when I connected to my iPad it said it wouldn't work, why?

    I just purchased a lightning to sd card camera reader and when I connected to my iPad it said it wouldn't work, why?

    What is the actual error message that you are getting, what typs of card is it, and how did the photos get onto the SD card ?
    The supported cards are, from http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4101 :
    SDSC
    SDHC
    miniSD
    microSD
    MMC
    SDXC
    If you copied the photos onto the card yourself then the card needs to have a DCIM directory on the root of the card with the photos underneath it, and the photo filenames need to be exactly 8 characters long (no spaces) plus the file extension i.e. in a similar format as if a camera had created/written them.

  • People with msi neo 2 mobo's and audigy 2 cards please read

    I was wondering what pci slot you have your sound card in as mine is in the orange slot and have noticed pauses in games for no reason. The on board ethernet is sharing the same irq as the gfx card within windows and was wondering if i moved the sound card to another slot it may free up an irq for the ethernet. Or am i wrong, does it share with the agp anyway?

    Even though mine is Neo Vanilla, the IRQ landscape shouldn't be that much different. With the nForce chipset, slot 3 has always been the sweetspot.
    Just putting it in any slot is asking for trouble. What you need to be looking at is IRQ allocation in either the Device Manager, or System Info.
    That will give you a good idea what is going on.
    For instance, here's mine...
    IRQ 0   System timer   OK
    IRQ 1   Standard 101/102-Key or Microsoft Natural PS/2 Keyboard   OK
    IRQ 4   Communications Port (COM1)   OK
    IRQ 5   WinFast TV2000 XP WDM Audio Capture   OK
    IRQ 6   Standard floppy disk controller   OK
    IRQ 8   System CMOS/real time clock   OK
    IRQ 9   Microsoft ACPI-Compliant System   OK
    IRQ 11   NVIDIA nForce PCI System Management   OK
    IRQ 12   PS/2 Compatible Mouse   OK
    IRQ 13   Numeric data processor   OK
    IRQ 14   Primary IDE Channel   OK
    IRQ 15   Secondary IDE Channel   OK
    IRQ 16   RADEON X800 XT Platinum Edition   OK
    IRQ 17   WinFast TV2000 XP WDM Video Capture   OK
    IRQ 18   Creative SB Audigy 2 ZS (WDM)   OK
    IRQ 19   OHCI Compliant IEEE 1394 Host Controller   OK
    IRQ 20   Standard Enhanced PCI to USB Host Controller   OK
    IRQ 21   NVIDIA Network Bus Enumerator   OK
    IRQ 22   Standard OpenHCD USB Host Controller   OK
    IRQ 23   Standard OpenHCD USB Host Controller   OK
    If you have anything sharing then you have a "Less than Optimal" configuration. If you haven't had problems, great! Creatives drivers have actually improved, as has the hardware these days in being more tolerant of the many configurations that can take place, but you are asking for problems or selling your system short as far as optimal performance goes if you have a sharing situation.

  • Itunes won't recognize ipod *PLEASE HELP- I'M NOT GETTING ANY REPLIES*

    I plug in my ipod, and it appears in My Computer, but it won't come up in the sources for itunes. I've tried it on 3 different computers and it still won't work. I put some music on it a few days ago and it worked fine then. What's going on, now? And how can I fix it?
    hp   Windows XP  

    You can try opening the iPod drive in My Computer,
    and deleting the folder "iPod_Control" (this is a
    hidden folder, you have to enable "Show hidden files
    and folders" by clicking on the Tools menu in My
    Computer, selecting Folder Options, and going to the
    View tab). Doing this will delete everything off
    your iPod (music, videos, games, etc) but after doing
    so, if you open iTunes it may recognize the iPod
    again and ask you to restore it (will likely say your
    iPod is in "Recovery Mode"). Then do the restore,
    and see if it's recognized after that.
    That helps, but I don't have my music on anything but my iPod because I downloaded it all on a computer at a coffee shop, so if I do that, I'll have wasted about $175 worth of music. I'll use that as a last resort, but are there any other ideas?

  • X205-sli1 64bit windows 7 won't recognize sony camera anymore and SLI mode flicker

    I suspect this is more a windows 7 driver issue than a laptop issue, but does anyone have any ideas?
    background:
    so, started with X205-sli1 default a month ago, since then it has gotten... 4gb ram, dual 500gb drives, and a T9500 CPU  (was running at 85c when idle before so as long as I was redoing the heatsink compond I upgraded the CPU, now runs at 40c when idle and faster).... anybody need a T7250 that works? pm me.
    afterwards formated and put windows 7 64bit on it...   since then loaded all the drivers from toshiba website and everthing seems to work fine except it won't recognize the sony DSCW90 camera as a mass storage device like it did before.  The camera still works fine on another system running ubuntu, so I know the camera/cable are good.
    second problem, even with the latest nvidia driver I get a nasty flicker when I enable the SLI mode, seems to be driver related....
    Thanks,
    Robert
    p.s. the instructions lorddethstalker's signature are spot on for how to do the upgrade... thanks.

    I long ago learned when I do an OS install I do a clean one with a complete wipe of the drive... read the instructions and seems about right...
    I seem to recall something from way back with a similar problem when I first got the camera... I just don't remember the solution...
    Clean installs were the way to go in my thinking as well. However, because of some glitches like this, I would mention a couple of things.
    Probably the best way to go, would have been to first have done a full system Toshiba Recovery of your Vista 32 OS, drivers, etc, to your system's factory default out-of-the-box setup. Nice and clean no messy software/hardware updates/installs to mess it up. Then, after that to have done an in place upgrade to Windows 7 32bit. I think you would have had the least amount of trouble from everything I've learned on this forum, and from my own personal experience.
    Next, while I fully understand the hyped benefits of the Windows 7 64bit version, the reality can be somewhat different. First, though it has a 64bit capability, your system was originally designed as a 32bit system, supplied with the appropriate 32 bit OS, and as such, it can only take a maximum of 4GB or RAM. Despite your percieved benefit of seeing/using the full 4GB of RAM, this is probably, at the very least, un-done by the fact that your old 32bit software actually runs faster on Windows 7 32bit. If your system could handle more than 4GB of RAM, and especially if you were willing to invest in new 64bit software, it would have been worthwhile to install Windows 7 64bit. Otherwise, I sincerely doubt that it was.
    The main chipset and its drivers are what handles the USB ports. If you did (re)install those, from the links I gave you before, there's not much else you can do there. While it is not the same problem you are experiencing, the only other suggestions I have is to follow the instructions in Method 3 of this article:
    USB port may stop working after you remove or insert a USB device
    Did you ever try the system reset I mentioned before?
    Good luck.

    why doesnt apple let iphone 4 be compatable for the ios 8 update this fall?

    For the the same reason iOS 8 won't support the iPhone 3GS and 3G. Because the iPhone 4 is obsolete.
    Look at the models of iPhone Apple currently sell: iPhone 5s, iPhone 5c, iPhone 4s. No iPhone 4, it was dropped from the lineup when the 5s, 5c and iOS 7 were released. Hence iOS 7 was the last version that would run on the iPhone 4. The iPhone 4s replaced the iPhone 4 as the entry-level iPhone. Exactly the same thing will happen this Fall when the iPhone is released, the iPhone 4s will be dropped from the lineup because it is obsolete and iOS 8 will be the final version of iOS for that model. Presumably the iPhone 5c will then drop down to become the new entry level model, and it will be dropped the following year when iOS 9 is released.
    New versions of software like iOS typically require faster processors, more RAM and other things to support the newer features, eventually it becomes impossible/uneconomic for Apple to keep older, slower hardware in the lineup so it is dropped and support for the latest OS versions on it ceases. So far this has happened on a very predictable schedule with the iPhone.

  • Here's a challenge please read and help.......

    I work for a company of a 1000 people and the owners bought everyone an ipod.
    the problem is that my boss wants me to record each persons serial number to their ipod and print it out for his records.
    i know that the serial number is on the back of the unit but that would take to long.
    I also know that when its plugged into the ipod updater program the serial number also shows.
    I would like to know if someone can build me a script that would grab the serial number to each ipod i plug in to the updater (maybe bash script, grab from string) copy it to the clip board and paste it to a text edit document. ohh and also a dialog box so i can write the persons name down. and if that can be added to the document as well.
    Sincerely
    an over worked employee.

    If you still have the boxes handy, check to see if the S/N is printed on with a barcode. If so you can just zap those all in with a reader and be done with it in minutes.
    Otherwise, to fish that string out of Updater first you must launch Apps/AppleScript/AppleScript Utility.app and check Enable GUI Scripting (enter an admin pass), then you can run this script…
    click here to open this script in your editor<pre style="font-family: 'Monaco', 'Courier New', Courier, monospace; overflow:auto; color: #222; background: #DDD; padding: 0.2em; font-size: 10px; width:400px">tell application "System Events" to tell process "iPod Updater" to set an_sn to the value of static text 6 of group 1 of window 1
    tell application "TextEdit"
    activate
    set a_name to the text returned of (display dialog "Enter a name for iPod " & an_sn default answer "")
    if the length of (get documents) is less than 1 then make new document
    tell (a reference to the front document's text) to set contents to contents & an_sn & tab & a_name & return
    end tell</pre>Edit

    you may need to convert the videos to a format appropriate for the ipod to see them .which are .mov or .mp4 video files. to do this you will ened to convert the videos using a 3rd party software that is not suported by apple. windows users have had either trouble or success using this software.

  • Log and Transfer won't recognize card

    I'm having issues on both Mac Pro Desktop and MacBook Pros with FCP 6.0.6 not recognizing video on my Compact Flash card. The card DOES show up on the computer's desktop. We're shooting on Sony 270u cameras. The video on the card is in .avi. It was working before, but lately has stopped. I've re-installed the Sony Recording Unit plug-in and it has SOMETIMES corrected the issue. The cards are reformatted every time they are use(we were told to do this from a consultant at Apple). I'm at a loss. There's no time for issues like this at a News Station. Any help would be appreciated.

    If it isn't software based, then why would the exact same card, card reader & laptop not work one day, then work the next morning? Everything was exactly the same. No new footage shot, no settings changed. The only thing I had him do was re-install the Sony Recording Unit plug-in. Of course, that didn't work for him when he tried out in the field. When I got the laptop the next morning it worked as soon as I powered it up.
    And if the icon for the card shows up on the desktop, wouldn't that take out the physical part?
    Sorry, but I'm just really frustrated that this keeps happening and I haven't figured out a way to fix it.
    Thanks for your input. If you can think of anything else, I would greatly appreciate it.

  • Macbook won't recognize external Hard Drive and issues with Time Machine

    Hello everyone,
    I have just bought a new Macbook Pro with Mountain Lion and I am currently having problems with Time Machine.
    The issue begun in Snow Leopard: Time Machine was taking too long to backup, and would often not finish the backup because the external hard drive would be unwillingly ejected.
    Now with Mountain Lion I have reformated the drive (Mac OS Journaled) and about a third of the way through had the same issue: the drive was ejected before the backup could be finished. I restarted the machine and it happened again. However, now the computer won't even recognize the external drive when I plug it in. I have also tried to power off/on the drive itself to no progress.
    I have tested the USB port with another drive and the port is fine. I have also tested the usb cable and it is fine. And Disk Utility does not recognize the drive (even when I try the >diskutil list command in terminal).
    Now, I can hear the drive humming normally when I turn it on, and it is not usb-powered (my electricity current does fluctuate).
    Could the interrupted backup procedures have damaged the drive? And if so, wouldn't the computer recognize it anyway?
    It is a 4 year old WD 1 TB that is used exclusively for TM and has never left the house.
    Thank you for your time reading this and let me know if you need any more information that could help out.
    Cheers!

    From your description, I'd suspect a failing drive. Maybe time for a new external, especially as you've already re-formatted and it's still playing up.
    I had a similar problem with one of my clone backups a few weeks ago - it failed, I erased it, re-cloned, worked a couple of times and then it failed again. Disk Utility didn't throw up any errors after re-formatting. I guess all disks die at some point.

  • Won't recognize CD-R's and CD-RW's

    My ibook spits out my CD-R's and CD-RW's when I insert them to make a backup. It reads audio CD's just fine.
    Some instructions I found via this forum suggest I should start by looking at System Profiler, specifically the Devices category, to determine the drive's capability. I don't see a "Devices" category, but under "ATA" I see that the ibook has a CD-ROM. Does that mean this ibook G3 model simply doesn't write to CD-R's or CD-RW's? (It's possible that after three years of ownership I've never used the drive to back up data.)
    Other steps I've taken: inserting the disc and pressing "Command [the apple key?], Option, and I keys." That does nothing.
    Trying to download the Apple CD-DVD driver, Foreign File Access, and UDF Volume Access extensions. (I can't find them at apple.com/swupdates.)
    Is something wrong here, or does my computer just not have a capability I thought it had (meaning I have to use a hard drive to back up the big files)?

    I am not familiar with the G3 drive, so I don't know if it is supposed to burn discs or not, but I think it is supposed to. There are a couple of things to try.
    In System Profiler, is there a category called "disc burning"? If so, click on that and it should tell you the capabilities of your CD drive.
    Another thing to do is to run Disk Utility and verify and repair if necessary both permissions and the disc. There might possibly be a permissions problem that is keeping the unit from working properly.
    Finally, you can run the Apple Hardware Test if the drive still won't work. It is on one of the CD's that originally came with your computer, and if you actually have a hardware problem with the drive, it should be able to find it and give you an error code.
    Good luck, and please post back if you have any more questions.

    After you click on "Add a Printer", do you select "Add a Network, Wireless, or Bluetooth Printer"?
    If that doesn't work, there should be a way to connect by specifying the IP address of your AirPort Express.

  • Problem with iTunes and iPhone Music organization. PLEASE READ AND HELP!

    Hello All!
    I have this problem concerning iTunes and my iPhone. When I add music, and I update the Artist title to organize it in my iPhone, It shows EDITED on my mac in iTunes, but not my iPhone. I took a screen shot of what It shows. The TOP is iTunes showing "Arie Dixon" and "Arie Dixon & Olivia Cipolla" two seperate CD's, yet different Artist Titles, just the way I want it. The BOTTOM shows how the file was originally, in 3 seperate titles, "Bebe Boohgz" "The Jackmove 3" and "Arie Dixon 'Bebe Boohgz' and Olivia Cipolla". The problem is that iTunes shows it in the correct title, but my iPhone won't. This is my 2nd iPhone 4 I have that has this problem. I'm not sure if it's the settings or encoding, can someone help me out? I can't be the only person with this problem. Apple rep looked at me like o_O
    I also have music that won't appear in my iPhone, I manually have to search for, but appears on my iTunes in the correct title.
    I also have everything updated, and have the new os x release.

    As for the message about the media disappearing, of course it will.  This is how iOS upgrades work.  The device is wiped and the newest version of iOS for the device is installed as a "new" device then the device is restored using the backup created prior to the upgrade.
    All the content on the device should already exist in iTunes on the computer.
    If you want to move your iTunes library to a different drive for capacity reasons, do the following:
    Close iTunes
    Copy or Move the ENTIRE iTunes folder from the C drive to the other drive.
    While holding SHIFT launch iTunes.  iTunes will then prompt the user to select a library or create a new one.  Point iTunes to the new iTunes folder location.
