Xtreme Audio blue scre

I tried to watch a movie in Bsplay, but it allways go to bluescreen. After that i tried to use vlcplayer, it worked just fine. Is this card compatible only just various players?
I also had small self made program with mp3 playing background and when i start that program same bluescreen appears. Just great.
Card sounds great compared to my mobo's realtek audio, but these crashes with that card are depressing.
Anyone had samekind problems?

)Hi all,
The driver version as seen in the Device Manager does not have any relation with the driver version posted on the download site. Whenever a new driver becomes available, the older one is usually removed from the download site so you can be sure that it's the latest driver.

  • X-fi xtreme audio option on windows 7

    %x-fi xtreme audio option on windows 7? hello all members and staff from soundblaster.
    i come here to find help about a situation i have steped on and is making me some lack.
    i am using windows 7 and downloaded the latest drivers from soudblaster for my x-fi xtreme audio (non pci-e) and i noticed that an option enabled on other operating sistems is no longer avaiable.
    this option was called the 'what you hear' and basicaly it captured by hardware all my computer sounds and allowed me to record them with no problems. with windows 7 i am not having this option anymore.
    this option was very usefull for me since i was operating a small radio online for events on a 3d virtual city and that way i was able to send music and my voice over a stream to all members on that virtual city with excelent quality.
    at this time, without that option, i dont know how to set up a good quality and due this issue i wish to know if this functionality of the soudcard will be avaiable again with windows 7.
    i had this feature either with windows XP or vista.
    with no further subjets, my thanks in advance for any help provided.

  • X-Fi Xtreme Audio [Windows 7] Random Audio Glitches

    Hi I have Windows 7 and a PCI X-Fi Xtreme Audio sound card. (Not PCI-E). My problem is I get random audio glitches when listening to music or playing a game. No card I have had before had this problem. My computer is fast enough and I have the latest Windows 7 X-Fi Xtreme Audio driver installed. So what might be causing this?

    #Did this happen right after you install the sound card new or did this happen out of the blue?
    Sorry I don't have any further suggestion at this point, you might want to contact Customer Support to see how they can help you further.

  • X-Fi Xtreme Audio + Windows 7 = Freeze

    &X-Fi Xtreme Audio + Windows 7 = Freeze@ So after installing Windows 7 64bit Build 700, I downloaded the beta drivers and installed them.
    I went into the Audio/Sound options and selected the proper drivers to use for audio.
    The first time I did this, I had no issues, for about a week, then my PC would begin to freeze randomly. No blue screen, just a freeze. Everytime I rebooted the PC, it would get to the login screen, and freeze just as it loaded, or after i entered my login info.
    /reformated.
    Did it again, had the same issues, but instead of reformatting, so i started using safe mode which worked, and
    I started removing all my drivers I had installed, once I got to the audio driver, everything worked correctly. So i disabled the card and removed the drivers and i'm now using my onboard sound (which is fine) but that's not the point.
    I tried searching , but wasn't able to find anything similar. I realized new drivers have been released, but I don't know if i want to risk all the freezing.
    Do you know if this is something that was addressed?

  • X-fi Xtreme Audio Windows 7 SP1

    Hello All,
    Having issues with my X-fi Xtreme Audio in Windows 7 SP. Drivers are installed and the card is being detected by the Creative Audio Control Panel but not getting any sound coming through my headphones. Have tried the front headphone Jack and rear output no sound on both.
    Have Tried the driver from windows update and from Creative same thing with both driver sets. I know the card isn't faulty as the pc dual boots with Ubuntu .04 and the sound card works fine in that OS (on front and rear audio jacks)
    I have also tried uninstalling the drivers, then cleaning using driver sweeper then a reinstall and still no sound please help.

  • Driver Version Not Found" Error when installing drivers for X-fi Xtreme audio

    I recently bought the game Bioshock off steam and have been unable to play as it crashes as soon as I try to launch it. After doing some digging around I found out it was a sound problem. When I was looking at the drivers for my sound card (Sound Blaster X-Fi Xtreme Audio) I noticed that the driver called:?XFXA_PCDRV_LB__04_0079.exe has a fix for Bioshock. However when I install the driver I get the error "Driver version not found". I am positi've it is the correct driver for my sound card. I am on Windows 7 64bit.

    Hey!
    I have Vista Ultimate x64 and I ran windows update couple days ago. There was a new update for my xtreme audio pci-e. I installed it and now my driver version in creative software update is .3.2. Before i updated i ran creative's own software update. It didn't find any new drivers. I was WTF. I think that new driver fixed my volume problem. I had problem's when there was a deep bass in a song. The sound card lowered volume levels then somehow. Now that happens no more. In vista's device control it shows the driver version as 6.0.0.203. Driver date is 7 october 2008.

  • Issues related to Sound Blaster X-Fi Xtreme Audio (PCI Express 1)

    Hi, I've recently bought a SB X-Fi Xtreme Audio (PCI Express edition).
    Before I address my issue, I'd like to point out that my rig is:
    Maximus Extreme (mobo)?
    Q6600 (cpu)
    ATI4870 (vid card)
    4Gigs of DDR3 (ram)
    and my OS is Vista Home Edition (32 bit precision)?
    And so after physically installing the hardware, I quickly installed everything there was on the CD- this included the drivers available on the CD. After this installation, I restarted then found most recent updates via online sources (creative.com). But even after all of this, I wasn't able to get my microphone to work. Now from my understanding, the jack is shared between Line-In and Microphone and I'm supposed to configure this setting. And so I tried to do that, but my only problem was that I was unable to use any of the available features. After researching for a few hours I found out that I, appearently have to uninstall everything that I had installed and then reinstall everything from online sources (from creative.com-- latest drivers for vista 32 bit). But even then, I still can't use my mic or configure the settings so that I could use microphone instead of Line-In.
    Now going back to my actual question, how do I configure the settings so that I could use Microphone instead of Line-In?

    ERe: Issues related to Sound Blaster X-Fi Xtreme Audio (PCI Express )[ Bumping.
    Almost the same problem here.
    Sound Blaster X-Fi Xtreme Audio edition, Windows 7 64bit.
    I downloaded the latest driver from the Creative site, installed it, update with the update manager and then i installed the console.
    Issue number : I DONT have your same console. I dont have a "Mode" button, im stuck in Entertainment Mode. I cant control almost nothing and i dont have all the options u have.
    Issue number 2: My mic isnt working good. It's VERY low on volume, i cant be heard without the +20db boost (the only boost option i have, i cant boost more) and even with that acti've that's not that loud.
    It is still working good with my onboard realtek soundcard. I cant understand what's the problem and how to solve it.
    Ah, my headset is a Creative Fatality.

  • X-fi Xtreme Audio doesn't work in Windows 7 64 bit

    Hello everyone,
    I know this is a known issue and I've found many topics on this, but still I can't find any solution and I hope you can help.
    I've a Creative X-fi Xtreme Audio that was working perfectly under Windows XP SP3 but then I've upgraded to Windows 7 64 bit and the sound coming out from my speakers is awful. I've installed the latest driver from creative home site, I've updated the OS via "microsoft Update", I've tried many suggestions I've found on the web to solve this, like phisically change the PCI slot of the sound card, or reduce the ram ammount via msconfig but it didn't work. I've tried some custom driver either, the support pack 2.7 by Daniel?K. but nothing... I'm still at the starting point.
    What should I do?
    This is my actual configuration:
    OS: Microsoft Windows 7 Premium SP v 6..760
    CPU: AMD Athlon 64x2 6000+
    MB: Asus M3N78 SE (with the latest bios version 002)
    Ram: 4gb
    Video: nVidia GeForce GT 220

    I use CS4 on a Windows 7 64-bit computer.
    I noticed that none of the extensions I installed with the Extension Manager don't appear at all in any of the CS4 programs.
    Can anyone tell me why this doesn't work or how to solve this problem?

  • X-fi Xtreme Audio - Can't access/install mode switcher

    I've been trying to access the touted 'Audio Creation Mode' for its bit-matched playback and sound quality, however I don't have any of the fancy creative driver programs - instead I have a standard Windows 7 menu, with 8 tabs. (I'll try to get screens if it comes to it).
    I double checked my drivers, I am on V .04.0090, however upon attempting to install 'Creative Sound Blaster X-Fi Xtreme Audio Pack .04.0079' , I recieve the error 'Driver Version is not found', preventing me from installing the mode switcher and audio console...
    Stumped on how to fix this,? thanks in advance for any help and suggestions.

    Well thanks, but in that case I'm confused by why the post the audio pack alongside the Xtreme Audio in the download section... surely it was meant to be compatible if placed there?

  • SB Xtreme Audio Notebook optical out problem with Home TheaterSystem-HELP!

    JSB Xtreme Audio Notebook optical out problem with Home TheaterSystem-HELP!, I have this sound card connected?(optical OUT) ?to my home?theater system's digital IN ?through the recommended /8in. optical miniplug-to-optical SPDIF cable. Theater system is set correctly to Digital-In mode. I have no sound!
    The cable is a Velocity Toslink-to-Optical Mini Plug digital cable. I don't see any settings in the Creative Console Launcher. The notebook is a Dell XPS M730 (Vista 32).
    I have a PS3, DirecTV, and the SB Xtreme Audio Notebook cable on a hub switch that connects to the system's?one Optical IN. The PS3 and DirecTV sound perfect!
    The sound card works fine with standard PC speakers. I'm at a loss as?to what to try next. I set this whole system up myself, so I'm pretty good at working out the kinks, except this one!
    Karen

    OK. I just went to Control Panel - Sound - Playback - Digital Output Device (SB Xtreme Audio Notebook) - Properties - Advanced. I experimented with different sample rates and bit depths. Clicked the test button and lo and behold - sound from the HTS! I've tried iTunes, PowerDVD (configured to digital output) and YouTube - no sound! Am I missing something really obvious?
    HA! Just backed out to Playback and selected Digital Output Device (SPDIF) and set as Default. Sound is emunating from HTS! Well, that mystery is solved! Who knew.
    Thanks anyway! Any comments or advice will still be appreciated.

  • Explain me something about X-Fi Xtreme Audio PCI-Express version

    @Explain me something about X-Fi Xtreme Audio PCI-Express version? Hello,
    I have a question about this card.
    I've received my pc week ago and as I didn't know what to take about sound card (contrary to other pieces) and I didn't want integreted one, so I took the X-Fi Xtreme Audio PCI-Express. I didn't want to fall intro trap of X-Fi Xtreme Audio (normal) which isn't an X-Fi one in fact... BUT according to Wikipedia ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sound_Blaster_X-Fi#X-Fi_Xtreme_Audio ) Apparently mine isn't an X-Fi too? It's just a CA00 chipset one which 7. support?
    With all the problems I have (sounds leave and come back without my intervention, or begin to be like headphone mode, you know, compressed sound), I would like an answer. This card is or isn't a "real" X-Fi sound card or it's just a poor Audigy?
    Or CA00 is enough good contrary to EMU20?
    Because the titanium one isn't so expensi've, I could go for it. (Yeah I'll ask to my sellor if I can give them back my sound card if I have too many problems!)

    D Oh yeah by the way, I'll make the most of this topic to ask you why it's possible to activate the bass settings on console launcher and not in the other application "Audio Sound Panel" (sorry for my english, mine is in french) and why I can't set the bass and treble like I did on my Audigy

  • Problems with the X-Fi Xtreme Audio Notebook external card..

    I recently updated my drivers for this card on my laptop to find out that updating my drivers meant causing my card to stop working. Before I decided to update through vista (probably a bad idea, but I really was hoping to get my new headset to work with Ventrilo and this seemed like the only route left after working on it for hours), the card was working fine. Music sounded amazing, etc etc. However, upon completion of the downlaod and restarting of my computer, the audio driver just stopped working completely.
    At this point, this is what is going on: <img><span class="Apple-style-span"]http://img75.imageshack.us/my.php?image=helpmeyk3.jpg</img> .
    I've gone to my devices through the control panel and attempted to revert to my old drivers, yet that doesn't work either. Nothing that I do seems to help, so I've just given up until I get someone who actually knows what they are doing. Here's my specs:
    Dell XPS M530 laptop
    Vista ?32-bit
    4gig RAM
    <span class="Apple-style-span">X-Fi Xtreme Audio Notebook
    The headset in question is the Creative Fatality 3.5mm jack.
    If there is anything else I can do, please let me know.
    I just want this to work T_T been at it for around six hours now?

    Here's the text of the e-mail I received:
    <p class="MsoPlainText">Thank you for writing back and letting me assist you further with your concern.
    <p class="MsoPlainText">?
    <p class="MsoPlainText">I understand that you are having difficulties with your X-Fi Xtreme Audio Notebook using with your onboard speakers. I apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused you. I know how something like this can really try your patience. Please allow me to explain this further.
    <p class="MsoPlainText">?
    <p class="MsoPlainText">Please be informed that the sole purpose of your sound blaster is to be used with external speakers and not with the onboard speakers on your laptop. This is also the reason why the effects on the sound card's software have no effect on the onboard speakers.
    <p class="MsoPlainText">?
    <p class="MsoPlainText">Also, you can only control the onboard speakers through the Sound Blaster volume control when the "Enable Audio Playback Through Notebook Speakers" option is enabled in the Entertainment Mode. If this is disabled, you will not be able to control the onboard speakers.
    <p class="MsoPlainText">?
    <p class="MsoPlainText">With regards to the effects (CMSS, Crystalizer, Mixer, and Equalizer), you will need to use an external speaker to enjoy these features. These are not applicable with the onboard speakers.

  • X-Fi Xtreme Audio Iss

    Heya guys, I did all the googling I could and I am having no luck with this one...
    I picked up a new sound card from Best Buy the other day, it's a Creative Sound Blaster X-Fi Xtreme Audio, and it seems nice enough, except for three little problems I'm having.
    First, and most importantly, the microphone port does not work. Basically, the jack it goes in (on the back panel, more on front panel jack later in this post) is a multipurpose jack, that accepts digital i/o, and also has line in/mic mode. I've made sure my volumes are correct and have done everything I can find to do to make the mic work, but alas, there is no success. I am stumped on this one now.
    Second, for audio out in the first out port (2. speaker setup), there is only sound coming out the right side. Cable is alright and speakers are alright, the sound card is just not putting out Right-Side audio. Again, I have checked balance/volume levels on this one and am having absolutely no luck. By the way, the front audio jack does the same thing as the back.
    Third, the front MIC port, when plugged in, causes the sound out (front and back) to start making a bunch of noise, and it drops all of the actual sound out. There is just a lot of squealing which continues until I mute and then unmute the volume. The sound continues even after you remove the mic.
    I honestly don't know what to do about these issues. What sound there is, I love. It sounds much better than onboard. But these issues are bugging me and I can find no solutions around the forums that are working.
    Thanks in advance!

    You'd be better off returning it and replacing it with something else completely. These issues of buggy behaviour and no support are common across all Creative products, if you change your card for another Creative card you'll just be swapping one set of issues for another which will never be resolved.
