X-Fi Titanium PCI Express front pannel connection not working

<font face="verdana,geneva" size="3">I can not get any signal to or from the front pannel connector of my X-Fi Titanium PCI Express. (The rear jacks are working fine.)
<font face="verdana,geneva" size="3">The front header cable from my Antec P-80B worked perfectly with my onboard motherboard sound. Now that I have it connected to my X-Fi I get nothing from the jacks on the front of my case. (The onboard sound is disabled in my BIOS.)? I've double and tripple checked the connection and it is properly keyed and fitted. Is there a step or a setting that I'm missing somewhere to get this working? Can anyone confirm that the front pannel connection is acti've on the X-Fi Titanium PCI Express?

Re: X-Fi Titanium PCI Express front pannel connection not working? I was truly hoping that would help and I wanted to give you some additional hope. I have a coolermaster case, and it has the AC97 jack on the inside with all my other other front panel connectors for hard dri've activity light, reset, and power on. Three inches down from the AC97 jack, the INTEL HD *which works beautifully with the X-FI, only differs by three wires in different locations and the two pinouts configurations match those of the INTEL site identically.
Please tell me what happens as I would like to post a step by step guide for the others here in the forum. You will know when you have successfully adapted the connector because in VISTA and Windows 7, your sound applet in control panel will have a display of the connectors "lit up" when they are successfully connected. Mine shows FP microphone in the applet when its plugged in, and grayed out when its not. Its great for telling if I am connected on the rear of the soundcard of the front.
Best of luck and .......

  • PCI express 800 firewire card not working. Why?

    Hi,
    I want to run a DV device for capturing video and a Lacie hard drive for storage so I bought a firewire 800 PCI express card. It does not recogize my drive or my camera. Does anyone know the score on this? If I run two drives on one bus, it's so bloody slow I can't work. So I was hoping that a 2nd bus would really help but I'm not getting anywhere with this PCI Express card. I have the Mac Book Pro 17" laptop.
    Thanks!

    Hello from Virginia,
    What are your MBPro specs and are they compatible with the card you purchased.
    I capture through the onboard FW800 port and use an Expresscard/34 card which gives me two eSata connections to my external HDs...works great.
    Give us more details about the laptop and the card...make, model, compatibility...etc.

  • Sound Blaster X-FI Pci Express Front Panel Not working right Win7

    ASound Blaster X-FI Pci Express Front Panel Not working right Win7
    Please read carefully
    Part number Part SB040
    Hello,
    I have a fresh install of Win7x64 OEM. First, I want to say that I have "AUTOMATICALLY MUTE SPEAKERS" UNCHECKED under the Headphone detection tab. I have tried "Automatically Enable Headphone Settings" checked or unchecked. No difference.
    As soon as I plug in headphones to the front panel connector , the speakers in the mixer say "disconnected" (see below) and the SPDIF becomes the default output. There is no way for me to change this. And there isn't any sound coming from the headphones when plugged into the front panel. (the mic front panel works fine)
    I am using the nati've Win7 drivers for the card. Apparently the Win 7 drivers on your site are older than the nati've ones.
    This worked fine in Windows XP 32. Any ideas.

    Ok guys this is how I fixed the problem on my X-Fi PCI-Express. Open the Creative SB X-Fi Volume panel. Mine is set in game mode and I have 5 vertical sliders for Line-In /Mic, MIDI Synth, Digital-In, and the last one will say one of three things either Digital-In, Microphone, or Mirophone FP. At the top of the?slider there is a tab which brings up a drop down menu. Mine was default set to Digital-In, I switched it to Mirophone FP (tried Microphone first and it worked but the FP sounds better for me) and cranked it all the way up and my problem was solved. Very frustrating one though as there is no documentation that led me to the fix it was just playing around with it till I could figure it out.
    I hope this at least helps some of you out.

  • X-Fi Titanium PCI Express and DVD-A Player

    *X-Fi Titanium PCI Express and DVD-A Playerg Hi Guys
    Can anyone tell me if the Creative Mediasource DVD-A player works with the X-Fi Titanium PCI-E card under Windows 7, or indeed, at all. I've just bought a Titanium card and when I try to install the DVD-A player (latest version....) I get a message, 'Set up can't find any supported product...' That wouild be a bummer as I have a fair number of DVD-A discs and I would like to play them on my PC. I know that Power DVD 8 Ultra will play them but does it downmix the audio streams or something like that. I have a Pioneer DVD-A player but it is more convenient to play them this way if it is possible. I laso have Windows Vista so if it's only a problem with the OS that would be a start.
    Anyway, any help would be much appreciated.
    Thank you in anticipation
    Best Regards
    HarryM

    Hi Guys
    Many, many thanks for all your help with this.....NOT!!!!
    I really hate it when you come to forum to ask for help and everybody fecking ignores you....was the question too hard for you. I thought it was really simple, does the DVD-A player work with this card under this OS or not. I at least thought some of the Creative mods might help, I've just spent my hard earned cash on this card after all. As it is an X-Fi card I thought the DVD-A player would work okay but it doesn't so maybe I'm doing something wrong but I don't know because I didn't get an answer.
    Thanks a whole bunch guys

  • X-Fi Titanium PCI-Express: Are there Cracking & Popping issues with Battlefield 2 & 214

    Ok, now Creative came out with X-Fi Titanium PCI-Express, which supposedly should fix the cracking and popping issues with Battlefield 2 and Battlefield 232 since Creative technical support said the probelm with X-Fi and Battlefield series lied in PCI bus. Now the new audio card is using PCI-E bus. So does anyone with X-Fi Titanium still hearing the cracking and popping sounds when artillery fires?

    RB30, Do you also have the problem with your onboard audio?
    I can only give you my experience and that is that the new titanium works in my set up and I do not have any popping issues in BF242. There are lots of hassles installing the drivers as detailed in other posts. Plus they treat the drivers like they are the crown jewels and do not have them for download on the web site.
    The sound seems to be better than my onboard audio. Objects closer seem close and objects far away seem far away. I had an XtremeMusic card but I took it out since a problem always seemed to develop.
    I did not see any noticable increase in performance but that may be due to the fact that the performance in my system seems to be video card limited and not cpu limited.
    The EAX simulated 3D sound is excellent in BF242.
    Here are my system specs. I could not tell if you have Vista 64 or 32. My system is 64 and it works.

  • Front panel sound not working

    Front panel sound not working* Hello everyone,
    I've just bought a PCI Express X-Fi Titanium. So far everything works great with my 5. sound system, but I have problems with my front panel audio.
    My case only supports AC97 front panel audio, but has all individual connectors (so 7 single connectors, not one with 0 pins).
    I've already tried only connecting 5 pins (the two AC97 return pins unconnected) and connecting all 7 pins. In both ways the microphone works, but sadly not the headphone output. I also tried changing the two options in the driver but that changed nothing.
    I did some Google searching and found many reports where the sound itself works with an AC97 front panel on an HD soundcard, just no jack detection.
    Any ideas why that isn't working for me?

    ! Try here for pinouts of your jacks. I have a Cooler Master case that has AC97 and INTEL HD front panel jacks, but here is the kicker. The AC97 jacks come from the front panel first and then about fi've inches from this jack is an INTEL HD jack. A few wires are changed but perhaps these will help...

  • My front speakers are not working.

    I have a laptop HP Pavilion dv7-4180ea, Core i7 1.60 GHz, ATI Radeon HD 5650 1 GB, Windows 7 Ultimate x64 with 4 GB of RAM.
    The problem came up after I reinstalled the windows about one week ago. After I downloaded the driver from HP Drivers and Support things didn't seem to work as they did before. The front speakers are not working anymore now, only the subwoofer works and it sounds awful. Is there any other driver I need  to download or something? Thanks in advance.

    Hi here. Use a Mini Display Port to HDMI cable and connect the HDMI into HDMI input on the receiver and the Mini Display to the Mini Display Port on your Mac.
    - Go to System Preferences on your Mac. Click on the "Sound" icon. Then in the "Output" tab, select "(your speakers) - HDMI
    - Then go into Applications via finder > Utilities > Audio MIDI Setup. On the left side of the window select HDMI. On the right side it then should say "Source: (your speakers)"
    - Click the "Configure Speakers..." button in the bottom right of the window. Click the "Multichannel" tab. Then select "5.1 Surround" from the pull down menu. Click on each speaker to provide a test tone to make sure each is connect properly. Then click on "Apply" if there is no 5.1 option e.g it's greyed out use options 48000.0 HZ and 8ch-16bit Integer. You can then select Configure Speakers, Multichannel and 5.1 Surround from the drop down. When testing the speakers you may have to use the drop downs under each speaker to change the numbers for which speaker is where. Good luck :-) hope it works

  • I have done absalutely nothing to my 4g apple ipod touch, and it over heats, won't hold a charge, and the front camera will not work. I bought this brand new in december, and i've barely used it. I've tried restarting it and everything, what should i do?

    I have done absalutely nothing to my 4g apple ipod touch, and it over heats, won't hold a charge, and the front camera will not work. I bought this brand new in december, and i've barely used it. I've tried restarting it and everything, I honestly think this is out raging because i spend over $200 on this. To have for music and instagram. I use it about an hour a day, but i've only been using it for about 3 months although i've had it since December. Any suggestions that may help me?

    Try:
    - A reset. Nothing is lost
    Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Restore from backup
    - Restore to factory settings/new iPod
    If still problem make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

  • Camera connection not working with my camera

    Camera connect not working with my Sony boggie camera

    The Bloggie will not work because it draws too much power from the USB port on the iPad.  The solution is to interpose a powered USB hub between the Bloggie and the iPad - connect the Bloggie to the powered hub, then connect the hub to the ipad accessory.  Works fine with my 3D Bloggie.

  • The front row is not working. Remote control not triger,

    Front row is not working, Remote control no response, command-esc not triger as well.
    check keyboard shortcut from system preference, there is no front row.
    anyone know why?

    Ok first try it in another Account.
    1. Open the account system pref window (System Preferences > Accounts)
    2. Click the plus button at the bottom
    3. Specify an account name (ex: test)
    4. Add account
    5. Logout of your current account, and login to the newly created one
    If it works, then something was wrong with your account, move your files to the new account, and delete the old one.
    If it did not work:
    1. Try the reinstall again (DO NOT DO "ARCHIVE AND REINSTALL", as this may keep some file that is hindering FR from operating correctly
    2. Make sure the FR file is in the Core Services Folder (Macintosh HD/System/Library/CoreServices/Front Row.app)
    3. Make sure that you do not have the IR sensor turned off on your computer (System Prefs > Security > Uncheck "Disable Remote Control IR Sensor")
    4. Make sure that your remote is paired (http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=302545)
    5. Make sure that the Command + Esc key is setup to respond by opening front row:
    (1) Open system prefs
    (2) Open keyboard & mouse prefs
    (3) Click keyboard shortcuts
    (4) Scroll down until you see front row
    (5) Assign the Command + Esc key if it is not mapped
    6. Finally, if all else fails, call AppleCare while your computer is still under warranty
    Hope this helps,
