XtremeGamer Fatality Pro - Mic skipping/chopping prob

Hi,
Recently purchased the X-Fi XtremeGamer Fatalty Pro and I'm having a weird issue with the mic. Occasionally the microphone will begin to skip or chop, giving my voice a weird effect. It's usually resolved by changing modes back and forth or doing some random stuff in the sound mixer, although I haven't really found any solid solution. It will come back randomly after a few minutes, or several hours.
I tried the latest drivers, as well as the base drivers included with the cd, and both have the issue. Onboard sound is turned off. Using XP 64. Any ideas?

hi i getting same problem but iam on vista 64 u found out a fixx?

  • X-Fi XtremeGamer Fatality Pro Series & WIN 7 - help !

    As mentioned in the subject of this post, I have a Fatality Pro Series Xfi Xgamer PCI card. Everything seems to be working fine in WIN7-64bit except..... I cannot seem to locate a version of the THX Console Launcher. Granted, there isn't much I cannot set through the Audio Control Panel that came with the driver pack but I cannot seem to find any way to get to the equalizer settings that you would normally be able to set thru the THX control panel.
    I have been tempted to just download the vista64 version of it but I am not sure if that would work or not,
    OH and I am also looking for a WIN7-64 compatible version of the Alchemy application for re-enabling EAX support in older games.
    Any ideas, suggestions, links to downloads?

  • SoundBlaster X-FI XtremeGamer Fatality Pro & Windows Vista 64 Drive

    Just wondering what the current driver is for my video card ( SoundBlaster X-FI Xtreme Gamer Fatality Pro). I downloaded the following driver (Creative Sound Blaster X-Fi Xtreme Audio Pack .04.0078) and I'm not sure it is the correct driver. I've searched the forums and see that everyone is talking about the recently pulled driver (SBXF_PCDVT_LB_2_5_0003.exe). Would this be the driver I should be using for my sound card If not, what is the correct driver I should be using for my sound card Is there a current driver for my sound card I noticed that this driver is available as well (Creative SoundBlaster X-Fi XtremeMusic, Platinum, Fatalty and Elite Pro with Open AL support 2.09.0007). Just trying to clear up some confusion and not mess up my recently formatted computer with the newly installed Windows Vista 64. I'm hoping someone can help clear things up for me. Thanks for the replies.

    I'm not sure what all is included in the Audio Pack but the 2.5.0002 or .0003 drivers are technically the correct ones. (You may only be able to get .0002 since the other one was pulled). However, you'll find that a majority of users are completely unable to run Vista with an X-Fi card at all.
    The easiest way to get the latest driver/software is to go here: http://us.creative.com/support/downloads/ and select the card you own.
    Good luck, but don't hold your breathe...

  • Unable to enable SPDIF??? X-Fi XtremeGamer (non-PRO) w/ Digital I/O Module

    JUnable to enable SPDIF? X-Fi XtremeGamer (non-PRO) w/ Digital I/O Module? I recently purchased the Digital I/O module in order to use SPDIF Out on my X-Fi XtremeGamer in order to send audio to my 5. receiver via digital coax.
    However after hooking up my Digital I/O module to the flexijack (the one with the red light) I am unable to enable SPDIF.
    I read and followed the directions listed here:
    <a rel="nofollow" href="http://support.creative.com/kb/ShowArticle.aspx?sid=64440"]http://support.creative.com/kb/ShowArticle.aspx?sid=64440[/url]
    The options that they tell you to set are simply are not there on my system.
    I am running the most current drivers and console launcher that Creative has on their website.
    I have been trying to get it to work both under Windows XP and Windows 7.
    I have spent the last 3 hours beating my head on a wall, I hope someone can help me with this...
    Thanks in advance for any suggestions!

    Ah that's what I am afraid of.
    Quoted from the article in your message: "For SB073X series : Supports Microphone-in, Line-in and Optical out connections. On a SB073X series card, this jack does not have the Digital-in function to support the Digital I/O Module. It does however connects to external digital audio devices that accept stereo PCM or compressed Dolby Digital/DTS Bitstream from the Optical output. This will require using a "Toslink to Mini Toslink" cable for connection only."

  • Sound Stutters During Windows 7 Startup/Login XFi Titanium Fatality Pro

    Did you try using an independent driver such as robertmc8's PAX driver or Daniel K.'s drivers? I have an old PCI-based Xtremegamer Fatalty Pro with Windows 7 64 bit and I am using PAX drivers. No problems here.

  • Is My X-Fi Fatality Pro Blown?

    I've had my X-Fi Fatality Pro for about a year and a half now and it has always worked fine apart from the driver/memory leak issues, but last night I got a faint buzzing in my right ear that won't go away.
    I can hear the buzzing and it correlates with mouse movements/clicking and during bootup I can hear it making input noises as I press keys on the keyboard.
    My attempts to fix it have included:
    Reinstalling drivers (with driver sweeper)
    Removing the card from the system and getting any dust off
    Testing different headphones and it still has the faint buzzing noise
    FWIW, my microphone still sounds fine.
    In my not so expert opinion, it seems like the green 3.5mm port is blown.
    My question is does it sound like the card needs to be replaced? I don't really know of any way to test the PCIe slot on my motherboard without getting a new card.
    Any advice/suggestions appreciated! Thanks

    I would first look in control panel/administrati've tools/Event Viewer and see if the system is giving any sort of error while it does this. And in the meantime, what is in your system, (motherboard/processor/graphics/any add on cards/is it 32 or 64 bit Vista,etc..)

  • X-Fi XtremeGamer Fatality: 5.1 Config Resets to

    Hello.
    I recently upgraded my Audigy card with an X-Fi XtremeGamer Fatality version.
    Everything regarding sound quality and performance is A-Ok.
    My problem is that I'm experiencing an annoying bug, which I haven't been able to squash.
    Every time I restart Windows (XP /SP2), my 5. speaker config resets itself back to 2. settings.
    My speaker settings on Windows Sound properties remain in 5. config, but Sound blaster's Audio Console reflects a 2. config, as do games, music or any other audio App.
    I have to manually enable 5. settings in the Audio console with every restart.
    I tried synchronizing with control panel (on and off) with the same result.
    Is there a way to lock down a 5. config within the registry (or some .ini file, or any kind of config file) so that it won't keep reseting itself?
    All my other settings like CMSS-3D surround, and X-Fi Crystalizer also reset themselves to default settings after a system restart.
    Please Advise!

    I just recently upgraded from the Xtreme Gamer to the Fatalty on my Dell XPS720 due to screeching problems. Everything is working fine except I think I am having the same problem you are having. I will set the console settings to where I want them with the equalizer, speakers, Crystalizer etc but after I turn off the computer it seems like everything resets to default and then I have to reset everything again. Not sure what I can do to correct this problem. It didnt do this with the old sound card and different drivers.

  • Xi-fi fatality pro not installing on Win7

    )Xi-fi fatality pro not installing on Win7 I'm done. 7 hours trying to install a **bleep**ing sound card. Ridiculous. Before any one suggests, I've tried the Pax drivers, the KX drivers, some beta drivers, swapping slots, uninstall, clean drivers, safemode, killing a chicken - Nothing. Creatives crap drivers will not detect their own card, even though Everest has no problem telling me what card I have. HD Audio device is what I get. And even then I have no sound and the orange connecter seems to be a S/PDIF jack.
    Creatives own PID hotfix will not even detect it(how lame is that). No matter what I try, and I've tried everything on these forums (and elsewhere) short of a format and re-install - and I'm not doing that for a ****ed sound card.
    This is not a plea for help. I've availled myself of all the help here and elsewhere (at least the search function works). Thanks to everyone who's helped others and as a result tried to help me as well. But creative's garbage will not work on my system.
    I remember my old Audigy 2 was a pain in the ass, I should have my head examined for even considering Creative again.
    Oh well. I hear ASUS is good. I'm just sorry I wasted my time with this piece of crap.

    -sorry to hear about your problems, I had the same thing happen to me in the past, in my situation the problem was fixed by removing the card from the system and cleaning/polishing the contacts on the bottom of the card with the eraser you find on the back end of a normal pencil...
    best of luck with whatever you choose... creative is F'n many of us using Win7....

  • Fixed Popping/Crackling on X-Fi Titanium Fatality Pro

    For those having problems and tried all the IRQ fixes+ unofficial drivers but failed..
    You might want to use this DPC latency tool
    http://www.thesycon.de/deu/latency_check.shtml
    You can read how to use it from the website.
    Anyways, I isolated my problem down to my gigabyte motherboard EasyTune software [used it for fan control]. Audio is working fine now.

    Re: Fixed Popping/Crackling on X-Fi Titanium Fatality Pro That spikes (they are rear but they do occur)?im geting is during playing World of Warcraft. So when all components are under (some) load. Doing this tests when you dont do anything seems kinda pointless And ye if you dont notice any issues you shouldnt worry about dpc spikes/latency anyway. This was more like and experiment, when i saw people complaining and i notice on nvidia forums that "dpc fixes just missed 96.75 drver release", so i went and check it out what the hell this actualy is. So also people that are runing nvidia cards and have sound issues, update to latest nvidia driver (97.x+) it might resolve your issues. Also as far as i know occesional spikes are to be expected, whats bad is, when you constant latency is high (over 500ms). This shows as unusual fps drops and/or sound crackling. I personaly suspect that lots of problems about this is actualy caused by something else and not creative driver/card. Known "bad" drivers are lots of times also network drivers, so people should keep updated those as well...

  • My MacBook Pro mic is muffled

    Lately, I dicovered that my MacBook Pro mic is muffled. I need to know is this issue related to the hardware component so I should change it or is it a software problem?

    What year and model MBP do you have? Just wondering if the mic input hole has been clogged with "something"?
    You can also try a NVRAM/PRAM reset and see if that helps:
