X-Fi Extreme Audio not Recognized by Wi

I'm building a new system, using the Asus P5N-D mobo. I've got XP installed and updated to current. Windows recognizes that there is a pci device installed, but the X-fi drivers dont recognize the card.
Any tips or suggestions you have would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.

Hi candleja; I too am having the same issue, I was bought X-FI Extreme Audio PCI-Express and I attempted to install it on my FoxConn m/b running XP Pro SP3, same error showed itself saying device could not be located, it shows up in Device Manager but not as a normal audio device would (normally it states something like "Sound or Multimedia Device") it just states "PCI Device", the drivers on the CD didnt work, the drivers on the site didnt work (only being Vista ones is why but worth a go) and the work arounds to force a driver to install wont work on SP3 due to the "Only show compatible drivers" option not being present on device managers driver wizard anymore so I cant force it to install. I looked up the same card on a few online stores and they all said they support both XP/Vista and both 32Bit/64Bit but it did say "XP Pro SP2" rather than "SP3" or "SP2 or higher" but due to having a slipstreamed SP3 XP Pro install source I cant just uninstall SP3, very annoying >.< so if anyone has a solution that would be much appriciated! Its a shame as well I hear good things of this card and I've got a digital/optical surround kit but have been using stock/on-board SPU's for years now and I finally get around to getting a really hyped card and creative let me down grr!

  • [Yosemite] Audio not recognized (coreaudiod)

    Hello everyone!
    My audio is not recognized after booting my MacBook Pro 13" Late 2010 (Yosemite 10.10.1) and the icon in the menu bar is greyed out.
    After executing the following command
    sudo killall coreaudiod
    everything works again. So my question is, how to fix this problem? Can someone help?

    Sorry Klaus1. That was a good idea, but doesn't work. I get the same message "The disk you placed cannot be read by this computer". So, what now...?

  • USB audio not recognized

    Hello All! I have a late 2012 MacBook Pro with Retina display and a powered speaker system that connects with USB. Now I have a late 2009 MacBook Pro that these work just fine with. Both Computers are running Mavericks with all the latest updates. Using them with the 2009 Pro I get the option for "USB audio DAC" under the sound settings in System Prefs, but nothing on the late 2012 Pro. I really need to fix this so any help would be awesome! Thanks!

    Problem Solved!  
    It turned out to be a combination of the usb cable and the OTG USB hub.  On my desktop the iBaso was cable specific as to the device being recognized.  When I tried the working cable witht the OTG hub on the Stream 7 it failed as usual.  But when I tried the cheap monoprice adapter it worked.
    The usb audio solves the horrible sound problem with the Stream 7 for anybody who is lookiing for a Fix.
    The OTG hub works with a mouse and  a mSata drive perfectly but not with the iBAso DAC.  
    Thanks to everyone who replied for keeping me trying.  

  • Airport Extreme card not recognized

    Hi all - I just got my new MacBook this morning, and am already having problems. sigh Immediately upon startup (first time ever), everything went well. I chose our network, entered the password, and connected to the internet to download updates and my preferred software. At some point during these downloads I think I must have gotten a bit greedy with my downloading, and everything froze - keyboard, trackpad, everything - and I had to force a shut down. When I rebooted, not only could I not connect wirelessly, the computer seems unaware that there is even an Airport card installed.
    I can't activate it in Networking or Network Port Configurations, and it doesn't appear as an option in Internet Connect's Diagnostic mode or the "Network Setup Assistant" function.
    I tried looking through Help, which suggested opening System Profiler to see if it's recognizing the hardware.... it doesn't appear under Hardware, but comes up as what I assume is a connecting option under Networking's main category... however, when I click on "AirPort Card" directly beneath that, it says No information found. Again it appears under Locations, but I can't figure out how any of this is going to help me get it to work.
    We're working with a Linksys wireless router which is not the problem - my husband has a MacBook as well and has been connected with no problems all day.
    Has anyone else had this problem? Any ideas for what to do? I suppose I probably ought to just call AppleCare, but I thought I'd toss this out there.
    Thanks in advance for any help.

    A couple of things you should do first:
    1. Reboot your computer and then after the first "bing" press Command-Option-P-R (all four keys down at the same time and hold it). Hold these keys until you hear another bing, then you can let go.
    2. After the computer boots up, go to the Utilities folder, find Disk Utilities, and then "Repair Permissions."
    3. After #2 is done, find your Mac's boot up CD or DVD--the one that came with the computer (or better yet, if you have a newer version). Boot up from this CD and then using the Disk Utility tool on this CD or DVD, use the "Repair Disk" command.
    4. After that is done, reboot your computer and see if you can get your Airport Card working.
    By the way, steps 1 to 3 are basic Mac repair techniques.
    Good luck!

  • Air Port Extreme base not recognized...

    I have an AirPort Extreme base station that MacOS X (10.3) refuses to recognize. I've tried everything I can think of (swapped cables, installed newest versions of software, ran software update on the Mac) but nothing works. AirPort isn't even listed in the Network Preferences. I can't figure this thing out. One question I have though - does the base station require the host Mac to have an AirPort Extreme card installed, even if it's connecting via an ethernet cable?

    If your Mac doesn't have an Airport card then:
    1. Airport won't be an interface listed in Network Preferences
    2. You won't be able to use the Airport Setup Assistant - you need to do a manual configuration of the Base Station using the Airport Admin Utility.
    I suggest:
    1. make sure the cable/DSL modem is plugged into the Base Station's WAN port (it is labelled with the "circle of dots" icon).
    2. make sure the Mac is cabled to the LAN port (labelled with the "double headed arrow" icon)
    3. on the Mac, go to System Preferences->Network->Show ethernet built in->PPPoE tab. Make sure the box to "connect using PPPoE" is NOT checked. Then click on the TCP/IP tab, and make sure the only setting is to "configure using DHCP".
    4. make sure all third-party firewall software running on your Mac is disabled or better still, uninstalled. It isn't necessary anyway.
    5. then run the Airport Admin Utility. It should now "see" your Base Station and allow you to configure it.

  • Extreme (n) not recognizing old Express in Airport Utility

    I recently bought a new Airport Extreme (version 7.3.2).
    I replaced it on the modem and set it up to configure the internet etc and it is working fine ( its set to i) Create a Wireless Network,ii) Allow this network to be extended as well as iii) the Radio Mode being set to 802.11n ( 802.11b/g compatible).
    The problem is that the old Express can not be seen in the Utility when the Exrtreme is highlighted in the Utility. I repeatedly 'rescan' but the old express just is not visible.
    However, if I turn off the new Extreme, the Airport Utility can then 'see' the old express's and then would allow me to set them up - (however I can't, as when I ask them to be a remote or to extend an existing network, they tell me that there is not WDS in operation - which is true seeing that the main Extreme is turned off.)
    It's almost like the Extreme 'over-rides' the Express and vice versa in the Airport Utility - I can't see them all 'together'.
    Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated.
    Cheers
    Paul

    I believe that you have TWO wireless networks set up. One from the Extreme and the other on the Express. You cannot be connected to both, hence you cannot see them simultaneously under AirPort Utility. I would suggest you turn on the Extreme and write down all the settings under the Wireless heading. Via AirPort (not AirPort Utility) see if there is another wireless network that corresponds to the Express. If so, connect and you should be able to access the Express settings under AirPort Utility. Use that to Join an existing network (your Extreme, which should be still ON). Once that is accomplished and you restart, you will lose your Express wireless network, but be able to switch back your AirPort settings to your Extreme network.
    Good luck!

  • Airport Extreme Utility not recognizing base station; flashing amber light

    I'm using a PC with a Linksys PCI W54G PCI Adapter card. My Bellsouth DSL connection has worked fine using a direct ethernet connection. I'm now trying to setup a new Airport Extreme for wireless, but cannot get the utility to recognize the base station. The amber light flashes. I have tried resetting and rebooting. Still nothing. What am I doing wrong?

    ESSENTIAL MAINTENANCE
    1. Repair Permissions - /Applications/Utilities/Disk Utility.app. Start Disk Utility, select your HD and click on Repair Permissions. When finished, quit Disk Utility and then restart your computer.
    2. Reset PRAM - hold down Option-Command-P-R keys when starting until you hear the startup chime a 2nd time.
    3. Safe Mode Startup - hold down the Shift-key at startup until you see the login screen. When logged-in, then go to System Preferences/Network/AirPort
    - click on the 'Network Name:' roll-button, select 'Join Other Network...', enter 'Network Name and select the security type you are using, and finally, enter your Password and click 'Join'.
    If ISP uses DHCP:
    - click on 'Advanced', TCP/IP and confirm that 'Configure IPv4:' is set to 'Using DHCP', click 'OK'.
    - click the 'Apply' button and exit System Preferences.
    REBOOT AIRPORT HARDWARE
    1. Turn power off to ISP modem and AirPort Base Station, and shutdown computer - leave power off for 10 minutes.
    2. Turn on modem and wait for it to complete its test cycle. Then turn on the AirPort Base Station.
    3. Turn on computer and select your wireless network using the AirPort status menu in the menu bar. Then check if AirPort Base Station appears in AirPort Utility.
    4. If AirPort Base Station is not seen in AirPort Utility, quit AirPort Utility and turn AirPort Off using the AirPort status menu in the menu bar. Wait 30 seconds and turn the AirPort On again.
    5. Check if AirPort Base Station appears in AirPort Utility.

  • KT3 Ultra2 onboard audio not recognized by win 98SE

    I have a KT3 Ultra2 MB with the onboard audio enabled in BIOS and running Win98SE.  I installed the drivers from the driver disk and followed all the prompts from windows.  The device is listed under system and multimedia devices.  But windows itself does not recognize that the device exists for playing sounds, recording et al.  Multimedia properties says there is no playback device.  Sound recorder sees no device.  Volume control does not come up at all.  The MSI sound manager will not open at all.  I downloaded the latest drivers from the website, but there are no instructions as to how to install them, they just expand into a collection of files with no readme.
    Silent in Texas

    Reintalling Win98se certainly didn't do the trick for me.  I've spent two days installing, trying a few changes, re-installing, trying something else, reinstalling.  I even tried removing all my cards except the video but the problem was identical every try.
    Can you think of anything special you did during or after the re-install that did the trick?  Do you remember versions that you were using and where you got them?  This may be a case of the latest drivers being worse than some earlier ones, or some combination of older chipset, newer audio or something crazy.
    Speaking of the failed POST, I had a thing with a different MSI board a while ago, where it wouldn't hold the BIOS settings.  Every so often (if it was unplugged for a few hours) it would reset (as if the RTC Reset had been jumpered and the checksum was off).  If your video card was AGP, and the BIOS reset itself to "primary video = PCI" it might look like nothing was happening on boot up.
    I admit that I am about ready to pitch this board too, (or try to return it at least).

  • Audio not recognized

    When I insert a audio-cd in my MATSHITADVD-R UJ-825 drive, Finder reports that it cannot read this cd. But the drive is working ok, because Toast Titanium can recognize the audio-cd en shows all the content. The problem only is with audio-cd's, data-cd's, -dvd's and videos are no problem. Any suggestions how to make it work fine with audio?

    Sorry Klaus1. That was a good idea, but doesn't work. I get the same message "The disk you placed cannot be read by this computer". So, what now...?

  • My AirPort Extreme is not recognizing my Drive

    I have connected the drive directly to my Mac, it recognizes it and I can navigate through the folders. But how do I get my AirPort Extreme to recognize it and use it as a remote drive? I have connected it to the AirPort. And see nothing.

    OK, if you can copy the files across to the MB then copy them back. It's laborious but it would save the files. If this is impossible, well, I can't see an option.
    . I guess I don't see the difference it would make going through the AirPort Extreme.
    The AirPort Extreme's embedded operating system can't read NTFS. It is a decision Apple has made, and unfortunately all the Extreme's customers are stuck with it.

  • External hard drive connected to airport extreme is not recognized (Lion)

    Plugged an external hard drive into the USB port on my new Airport Extreme Base Station, and it's nowhere to be found on my MB Pro (Lion). Doesn't appear in "Finder" or anywhere else.
    Any suggestions would be appreciated.
    TIA

    The drive also needs to be formatted right (NTFS and ExFAT don't work).  See http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2426
    If the drive is bus-powered (ie, doesn't have its own power supply), you need a powered USB hub, as the Airport's USB port is underpowered.  Some folks have also needed them with some large (750 GB or more) powered drives, too.

  • Airport and Audio Not Recognized after logicboard replacement

    Hey everyone, this is about to drive me up the wall. I just replaced a logic board in my Santa Rosa 15" MacBook Pro (July 2007) with a more recent Penryn (Jan 2008) logic board. Both are 2.4 Ghz Core 2 Duo processors.
    The Problem?
    After replacing the logic board neither my Airport nor my Audio cards seem to be working. In fact the system doesn't recognize that I have either installed. I checked other ports like USB and MagSafe on the left side I/O board and they seem to be working without hesitation. What could be the problem?...how do I fix it since audio and internet are both pretty crucial.
    I did notice a difference between the setups of the SR vs. Penryn MBP's with 3 airport antenae on the SR contrary to the 2 antenae on the Penryn. The airport cards also look a bit different regarding their individual casing with apple insignia.
    I've checked the other forums and the deletion of the AppleAirport2.ktext did nothing nor did a "power system reset" by taking out battery and holding the power button for 10 seconds.
    Is there anything I'm missing?

    Perhaps the problem is an incompatible logic board.
