X-FI Titanium Fatal1ty & Windows 7

& Hi all,
I am using Build 7068 of Windows 7 X64 and the latest beta drivers Creative Sound Blaster X-Fi Titanium Beta Driver 02.7.0006
For some reason the windows volume is reset to 00% each time I reboot. I dont know if this is a bug in the driver and/or win7.
Does anyone else have a similar setup or know of a work-around to make the volume stick?
thanks in advance.

I'd use Daniel_K's support pack 2.0 (search this forum). If I remember right, there were issues with the default Creative installer for DDL/DTS in Windows 7, and his driver mod addressed it.

  • X-Fi Titanium install Window 7

    I got this card about the time i purchased Vista and had heaps of problems getting it installed. With the evaluation release 700 of Windows 7 yet again it's a pain to install drivers. You know I wish just for once Creative would release an installer package so you can install what you want rather than have to download everything seperately.
    Yes there is the web updater but unfortunately some installs require compatibility because they are not quite ready.
    I think my next sound card will not be a soundblaster.

    Then you can update to the newest Creative driver and applications afterward. The software CD works in Windows 7, but I felt that my system was sluggish and unresponsi've afterward. So, I recommend you try Daniel K.'s pack, and then you can upgrade your driver and any other applications that Creative has updated since. There are a few things in the installation scripts for the applications and drivers on the CD that just dont work, in my opinion. That is why Daniel made his package, because he wanted to integrate things a bit more smoothly. I have run an X-Fi Fatality PCI and now my Titanium Fatality PRo PCI-express card with the support pack and it works great under XP, Vista, and Windows 7 in either 32 or 64 bit flavors.

  • X-Fi Titanium and Windows 7 installation disk

    Hi,
    I've bought a X-Fi Titanium card which came with a driver?CD, I would like to know if the driver CD which came it's safe to install on Windows 7, or to download the drivers and Control Panel from the web an to install them instead.
    The CD contains also applications besides drivers, but I think they are more Vista compatible since on the CD is copyrighted 2008.
    So it's ok to install the CD and then to apply the updates from the web, or to install only the web drivers and control panel ?

  • SOUND MUTING WITH XFI FATALITY TITANIUM AND WINDOWS 7

    5SOUND MUTING WITH XFI FATALITY TITANIUM AND WINDOWS 7z Ok sorry if this hasbeen covered before but I searched and couldn't find it so here goes:
    I have a two month old XFI FATALTY TITANIUM CARD WITH THE FRONT PANEL BREAKOUT BOX.
    It showed up staright away as a hi fi device and the optical output when selected works ok I dunno about surround sound it simply plays great stereo through my Arcam DAC connected up to my stereo.
    Problems began when I decided to install the Creative Software. What happens i sit plays for maybe o mins then mutes also I primarily use i tunes and it wont play anything until a few seconds after the music starts.
    This is just on optical out if I use standard phono to 3.5mm jack its fine.
    What puzzles me is why this happens when using the creative software ? Reverting back to the pre creative software it plays fine I would just like to take advantage of the various functions suplied with creative software?
    Any ideas please. FWIW I Completely deinstalled the card and installed? abasic CMI 8738 card and that does the same so maybe its windows 7
    Oh spec wise Windows 7 32 bit
    4GB RAM
    Asus MOBO

    Weird... I changed nothing and yeterday it worked...
    I just understand this, but what the hell?

  • MSI x58 PRO-E SLI+Creative X-Fi Titanium Fatal1ty Pro

    Im thinking of buying a Creative X-Fi Titanium Fatal1ty Pro for some better sound, problem is that I cant see if this is gonna fit in the top PCI-E slot because of the cooling block there.
    Does anyone know if this will fit or not?
    here is a pic of my current setup:
    http://twitpic.com/1zvxnz

     You asked if it would fit the other slot and I said it would, if the heatsink does in fact prevent you from using that slot then you can use any other available PCIe slot. A 1x PCIe card will work in any PCIe slot no matter what size the slot is.
     I took a look at the pictures shot from an angle at MSI website and it does look as if it may not fit there. I also noticed that on the 1156 MB that the same HS on them have very short fins in line with that slot, makes me wonder why the 1366 MB HS is not like that.
     I assume you don't have or can't borrow a card from family or friend to just test for fit in that slot?

  • Titanium Fatal1ty digital sound encoder issues

    So, I've had this Titanium Fatal1ty pro soundcard for a few years and it has always given me trouble. Simply, a few years back when I initially installed it, I had fought with achieving full DTS or Dolby digital mode, or anything greater (in signal quality) than PCM (analog mode). I eventually figured it out a few years back after repeated uninstalls, different driver versions. Problem is, I recently reinstalled my OS and now I can't get my sound card fully functioning.
    So I can't get the DTS or Dolby digital indicators to light up on my reciever. I've sought the help creative offers by adjusting my sampling rate lower. Nothing. I've verified my on-board sound was disabled thru bios. I simply cannot get any digital sound flowing through my optical port. Weirdest of all, in Console launcher or creative Control panel if I cleck on the tab marked "encoder" I get the BSOD. Never fails; everytime.
    I'm wondering if my encoder on the actual sound card is going bad. Then again, I've gotten BSOD screens lately even doing things unrelated to sound, especially while using Google Chrome. I'm wondering if my RAM going bad would affect the performance of my sound card.
    Any ideas would be much appreciated! Thanks in advance!

    Hi Aboisis,
    You will need to contact support to enquire about that.

  • Titanium Fatal1ty Pro product numbers?

    I've discovered this, and I am honestly quite confused.
    On Creative's official store, the Titanium Fatal1ty Pro has the SKU 70SB088600002 . Looking at my own local stores, I see a very similar code (70SB088600000), where the only difference is the last digit being 0 instead of 2. That's not all though. Some retailers also have the quite different code of 30SB088600000 . That's three SKUs, apparently for the same product. Nothing indicates that either is the champion edition (the package including a front bay). Do these differ somehow?

    You can use the product page on the online store as a reference to make sure that you are not missing anything. If you are buying from an online reseller, you might want to sure they are authorised &amp; trustworthy retailers.

  • Gigaworks S750 cables for the X-Fi Titanium Fatal1ty Pro Card?

    Hey guys,
    I got a nice Gigaworks S750 7.1 speaker system and want to use it with my new X-Fi Titanium Fatal1ty Pro card. The Fatal1ty pro has analog outputs for a 7.1 sound system, but the Gigaworks doesn't have the same layout. Can anyone help me find the cables I need to get this setup running?

    Hi,
    There are 4 Line Outs on the X-Fi Titanium Fatal1ty Pro card.
    Line Out 1 jack - Connects to the Front Left and Front Right inputs
    Line Out 2 jack - Connects to the Side Left and Side Right inputs
    Line Out 3 jack - Connects to the Front Center and Subwoofer inputs
    Line Out 4 jack - Connects to the Rear Left and Rear Right inputs
    You might want to refer to the user manual of the sound card and speakers system for more information.
    You can still utilize the suppiled 7.1 cable. Just leave out the grey connector (side speakers) and use a single 3.5mm cable to hook up both ends.

  • Beta driver for Titanium Fatal1ty Pro and windows 7 64 bit

    I see there are beta drivers on the website for the X-Fi Titanium Fatalty Pro on Windows 7 64 bit.
    The drivers are dated June 23, 200.
    Are there any known problems with this set of drivers?

    Now I can't find those beta drivers on the website anymore.
    Did support take them down?
    And do the current drivers dated: july 30, 2009 cause the shutdown bug in win 7 64 bit's

  • Not detected: Creative X-Fi Titanium Fatal1ty Champion and Windows 7

    Hi!
    i have a strange problem: my Creative X-Fi Titanium Fatalty Champion Soundcard is not detected when I want to upgrade or download PowerDVD.
    It shows up in the devices list as "SB X-FI" though - but this seems to be the incorrect name!?!?!
    Also I can not set the SPDIF out options.
    I can listen to MP3's via Winamp etc. But I can not set Dolby Digital vcia SPDIF with PowerDVD for example.
    I am using the latest official drivers.
    Some forums say it's a hardware problem and I should exchange the card. Is trhis true or can I change software settings?

    Anyone answer ?

  • X-Fi Titanium Fatal1ty Pro on Windows 8

    Am I the only one having issues with this on Windows 8? To me, the final driver didn't solve anything, and I still have issues with sudden loss of sound for pretty much any application. I was looking forward to getting the final driver for some time, and was very disappointed when I found that I still had these issues.
    Already tried completely uninstalling and wiping old drivers before doing a fresh install of the final driver, same thing.
    FYI, I had no issues before upgrading to Windows 8!

Opened up Console Launcher and switched mode to Audio Creation and suddenly I had sound but still only the right front and left front. Looks like Creative has managed to screw up Windows 7 along with Windows 8. Maybe if I go back to Win95 things will work.
    If you are playing from a stereo source(only two channels, right and left) then you aren't going to have playback on all of your speakers, to have that you need to tell the console launcher to replicate the stereo signal to the rest of your speakers.
    Like so

  • Tactic3D Sigma + X-Fi Titanium Fatal1ty ?

    Hello friends,
    I have a PCI-E X-Fi Titanium Fatalty sound card and I'm thinking in get a good headphone to play during midnight.
    I know Titanium features in Game Mode the CMSS-3D effect which offer a great improvment in games with any kind of headphone.
    On the other hand, Tactic3D Sigma offers THX TruStudio Pro Surround, that also delivers a 3D simulation effect in games.
    so...
    Is it worth buying Sigma if I can get a 3D effect with my soundcard? Sigma still good using jack output?
    THX TruStudio Pro Surround >>> CMSS-3D ?
    Thanks.

    The following is the responses I have received from Creative customer support regarding the THX controller software NOT working (the controller software just hangs) with my X-fi Platinum. I am very confused by the contradicting responses help please!
    Detailed Problem Description:
    Ok I have installed the Alpha/Sigma software and the cotrol panel just hangs when it opens. I uninstalled, reinstalled in safe mode, restarted, ran update with the same results . . . WTF these are sold as high-eng! I have been in tech support, I am a Intel Product Dealer, and a MS System builder for years. Windows 7 prem 64, Creative SB X-FI Titanium . . . seems like the head set should work with this. Please help...
    Thank you for contacting Creative Technical Support.
    Are you connecting the headset thru the 3.5mm plug or USB connection?
    If using the USB headset connection, please note that you won't be able to use it with the X-fi Titanium soundcard.

    Thank you for answering,
    I can use the mini jacks but not the features I bought the headset for? The mini jack functioning of this headset seem no better than any $25 headset . . . and I have spent years plugged in in recording studios.
    So the features of this headset are not available if I am using your High-end soundcard?!?!?!?!? How is this possible?!?!?!? And why does the box not say this?? Now that I have spent hundreds of dollars on your soundcard and nearly another $00 on your headphones I am just out of luck!!!??
    I think this needs a website of its own. What am I to do with this useless waste of money at this point?
    So, please, tell me what I am to do?
    And please send me contact information for the marketing product leads for both of these products!
    Awaiting a reasonable answer,
    Thank you for writing to Creative Technical Support.
    Please note that when in USB connection, USB devices such as your SB Tactic3D Sigma Headset will create its own USB Audio Device and it will bypass the onboard sound card and the X-fi Titanium card.
    Make sure that the headset is properly detected in Device Manager and selected as the default playback and recording device.
    When using the mini-jack, please ensure that the X-fi Titanium card is selected as the default playback and recording device.

  • X-fi X-Fi Titanium Fatal1ty Champion Profile switching?

    Hey outthere,
    I use a X-fi Extreme Music and want to buy the Tatalty Champion. I have the following question.
    For gaming I use the standard 3.5mm Jacks for Soundoutput an when I am watching movies or TV I use optical SPDIF output for Dolby Digital Sound.
    Everytime I change between gaming and watching I have to change the Sound profile of Windows 7. So I have to go to Sound? and change the Output device.
    The Fatalty Champion Card has 3 Buttons for Gaming mode and so on. Can I use these Buttons to change my Audio profile? So I can change instantly between analog Output and optical?

    @Zingel986,
    The Dolby Digital Li've (DDL ) should be included with the X-Fi Titanium Fatalty Champion sound card. It is also sold seperately for X-Fi XtremeMusic sound cards too. Please visit buy.soundblaster.com for more details.
    Note: I am assuming you have a retail X-Fi XtremeMusic, I am not sure if the DDL pack works with an OEM model.
