X-fi extreme music oem thx cons

i have an x-fi extreme music oem card that came with an installer disk that had the drivers and thx console for vista. when i installed xp the installer disk tells me that its the wrong os. can anyone tell me where to find the correct xp installer disk for the oem SB0770 card? i have installed the correct drivers for it but the drivers did not come with the thx console. i could really use it unless anyone can tell me how to do bass redirection and subwoofer db-gain without it.

did you tried this 'trick' already?
Modded file for X-Fi installer cd for HP and other X-Fi OEM cards

Taken from Reggie's post:
"<i>Couldnt find any info on this ,so i spent some time figuring this out myself.
HP OEM cards will not install with the retail x-fi cd so here is a modded file with extra device id's that makes it work,you may find other oem cards that wouldnt work before will work as there where 4 extra device id's i found in the web update driver to make this possible.
You need to obtain the x-fi installer cd and then grab that file, instructions are included</i>"

Soundblaster X-FI Extreme Music (OEM) vs X-FI Extreme Ga

Hello i've been looking around on the internet with no look trying to find out what the differnece between these two cqrds is and up to now had no luck at all (except i know one is OEM). I play games such as the souce based ones, ie counterstrike. I also listen to music and every now and then I pop a dvd into my computer and watch.
So, can someone define the difference between the two cards and better still which is best for me.
If it makes a difference my speakers are new Logitech X-540.
Thanks,
Riley.

The XtremeGamer version is a low profile card (half height) to fit into smaller cases. It also has an Intel HD-compatible header for connecting to your case's front audio connectors (if available). The XtremeMusic is a normal PCI card and lacks the intel HD connector but has 2 Creative proprietary connectors for either the internal or external expansion unit. The XtremeMusic also has gold-plated connectors if I am not mistaken. The OEM version will most propably lack the DTS/AC-3 decoding of the retail models. Functionality-wise, both cards should be the same, apart from the AC-3/DTS thing. (Although I think the XtremeGamer doesn't support that in the drivers, it comes with an Intervideo bundle that does it). Don't worry about that, because you can still download a free decoder, like AC3Filter which does the job better!

X-Fi Extreme Music Not Detected At All By New

I have just finished building a new PC with parts obtained from a friend, but the X-Fi that worked fine in my previous computer is now totally undetected. There is even no trace of it in the DMI data when the computer turns on - no 'Multimedia Controller' is listed under the PCI devices. It's the same story in Windows, there are no unrecognised devices at all. I have tried using it in both of the available PCI slots, and have had no luck. I know both slots work because my Wi-Fi card works in both of them. It worked briefly the first time I tested the system but after finishing the assembly of the computer it now?no longer works.

X-Fi Extreme Music Driver-Setup crashes under Win 7 64Bit

Hi there,
im using:
-Windows 7 Home Premium 64Bit OEM
-Asus P5WDH Deluxe
-X-Fi Extreme Music
Today i tried to install the Windows 7 drivers from the Creative support side, both the newest and the Beta one.
But for both, when Setup is saying "Installing the new drivers...please wait a few (!) minutes" (or something like that), the system crashes, i can't even move the mouse let alone using "Alt+Tab". I also tried waiting for hours(!!) but nothing happend.
Everytime i started the setup as "Admin" and i also tryied "Vista compatibility mode" once in a while, both didn't work...
Can someone help?

= Hi,? first of all thanks, but Win 7 DOES install your drivers but then, the sound card still is not recognized...like you can see here:

Is there anything else i might do?

How best to *BATCH* process MP3s for sound improvement using X-Fi extreme Music.

I have a shiny new X-Fi extreme music.
Does anyone have ideas on the best way to *batch* process a large selection of (16 bit 44.1) MP3 files?
A lot is made, in the X-Fi advertising, on the varied abilities to improve the sound of MP3 files. I have a large selection of play-a-long MP3s generated from old sources, and additionally converted to single channel mono. (i.e. I have extracted the LEFT channel and created a mono MP3 from that).
I would like to improve the sound of these file. I use them for play-a-long, so tonal closeness to the original is *not* important. I just want to be sure I can hear the basist (and drummer) OK - i.e. I want to emphasize their sound and disregard the frequencies in the human-voice range.
Sometime, I play these files using the PC equipped with the X-Fi extreme, but sometimes on my MP3 player.
Does creative supply SW to achieve this batch processing, or does anybody know of third party SW that can help. Their seems to be a lot of sound improvement SW out there, but it is targeted towards dealing with LP vinyl problems, and usually doesn't do batch very well.
Thanks for your consideration,
Matt

I have that set up but what i want it to do is take digital input from my DVD player that is hooked up to my TV and have it play out of my computer speakers. I can seem to get it to do this, got any suggestions?
Hi Penixor,
Are you saying you can get DD 5. encoding from the X-Fi card? Even for games and WMV HD 5. files?
Thanks...

X-Fi Extreme Music || when installing drivers for windows vista 32 bits, error mess

I get an error message when I install windows vista 32bits drivers for my X-Fi Extreme Music... it says, error while installing, can't find a compatible product on your system, verify if it has been corectly installed ... BUT INSTALLING I JUST WHAT I WANNA DO ! WTF?
all other software for hardware management can see that my sound card is connected to my mother board, so i don't understand why the driver installer can't see it too and install the drivers ...
Could someone give me a tip to help me to install my drivers please?
i got windows vista 32bits build 6000 , X-Fi Extreme Music, 2048 RAM, Pentium4 3.6ghz 250 go hdd space ...
I'm waiting for some cool answers, thanks ! ...

You are wrong. The 2.3 are for extreme music, you are thinking about extreme audio. Creative have really made a blunder with these names, not strange many are having problems. Propably trying to install extreme audio drivers on extreme music, and the other way around!?
Check that you have the right drivers, if you do. Try the trick where you unpack the driver exe file, so you get all the files from the installer on to a folder of youre choosing. Then use the "Creative Update Utility" popup to install/force the drivers to install. If you dont know what im talking about, search the forums, its been explained many times here.

Extreme music software on vista

Hi all. I have recently upgraded to vista 32 and with that have installed all the latest vista drivers for my xfi extreme music card. The problem is when using creative mediasource 5 v5.20.23 none of the buttons below the playback controls work (Audio cleanup, SVM,smart crossfade,timescale) I get the error (this eature is not available because no supported audio device is detedcted)
Does anyone know why? is there a vista setting somewhere that needs checking?
Thanks in advance.

Hi Tarka,
It would be advisable to get in touch with support if you have not already done so.

Sound only plays in Front left speak on Windows 7 with Xfi Extreme Music??

I have Xfi Extreme Music (SB0640). In installed the lastes drivers for windows 7 (<a rel="nofollow" href="http://forums.creative.com/t5/forums/postpage/board-id/#]Creative Sound Blaster X-Fi series driver 2.8.003 [/url]), When I run a speaker test all 6 speakers work, however when I use media player, media center etc. Only the front left speaker works.
Do I need to install creative Alchemy?
Console Launchers does not load on boot
Any asistance will be appreciated
Thanks in advance

NRe: Sound only plays in Front left speak on Windows 7 with Xfi Extreme Music? You will need to have the Creative Console Launcher which will let you have CMSS-3d or Creative Multichannel Surround Sound. You can find the newest version for your card here......

Honestly though, dont bother with just that. Get Daniel K.'s X-FI support pack which is updated with the newest drivers and applications for your card. Plus, he tweaked those with fixes for installation/integration? under operating systems other than XP.
That can be found here.......

SB X-Fi Extreme music problems, enlighten me please!

Hello to all! I'm a Creative sound cards user since 90's. Satisfied yes,but i would ask for a little help over here now.
I have the extreme music pci, not much of a new card i know, but i like the way it sounds through my marantz av amplifier very much. I have used that card with my previous 2 pcs without any issues. Last year i bought an asus p7h55d-m evo motherboard, intel core i5 66 dual core cpu, 2 corsair memory (i can't recall the model right now) sticks each one of 2 gb ram, amd 5770 with GB graphics card, TB WD 00fals hard disk dri've and put them together in Thermaltake HTPC case with a vfd display (imon). I have other devices too but i don't know if it would do any difference to mention.
Motherboard has onboard integrated sound chipset which is disabled (though it should not be a problem enabled), graphics card too (through hdmi). I have ONLY PCI slot where i installed the extreme music. My problem is that even if the latest creative driver for win7 64 bit is succesfully installed and everything looks just fine (no conflicts, resources are ok) i here a very low volume sound output from my speakers. I need to raise the volume to 80% to barely listen to what's played from the x-fi. Before some months the first time i installed the card it worked. Looks like something changed in win7 and doesn't let the card to function correctly. I need your help here as this might be my last chance to figure out the problem before i quit trying with that card. I may buy a new model but i'm not sure what's wrong and if the new one will work.

Maybe you plugged the cables too slacky, reconnect the cables that connect the hardware. Alternati'vely click on the volume in the windows tasklist on the right and select the mixer ... raise everything there.. The output should be enormeus. (sorry for my bad english)
too late but better than nothing.

X-Fi Extreme Music 48 Khz to 96 Khz and 16 bit to 24 bit sett

?Hello guys, I recently bought this card and everything works fine, but I have some questions.
. Where are the 48khz/96 khz and 6bit/24bit settings (except 24BIT Crystializer) which I had on my old Audigy SE and SB Li've 24 bit's
2. Is there a real difference in performance/quality between Gaming Mode and Entertainment Mode? Is it ok to play games in Ent.Mode?
3. What are the correct settings to achieve best sound quality pairing a Logitech Z-5500 (volume/bass/treble/eq/crystalizer levels)?
Thank you very much and I repeat, I don't have any troubleshooting issues, I just need some advices because I am not an expert in sound and I heard this X-Fi Extreme Music is very good when you set it up correctly.

go to entertainment mode, go to digital i/o all the way on the right,then change the digital output sampling rate to 96khz

X-Fi Extreme Music Digital I/O strange behav

Hello everybody, just installed my new X-Fi Extreme Music. It's connected to a Creative 2. Soundsystem by the digital I/O and to my Sennheiser Headphones. Connected like that i was very satisfied with my former Audigy. If I want sound on the Soundsystem I select digital output, if I want sound on the headphones I deselect it.
Thats how i'd like to handle it with the new card as well. The Problem is that after every reboot of my XP Professional the digital i/o doesn't work although it's activated. I always have to deactivate and activate it myself to work, which is not acceptable.
Any ideas why it behaves like that`?
