  • Sound card Sound Blaster?

    No sound from my computer. I just installed a new hard drive and Windows XP. I downloaded the drivers from the Dell site, but the audio does not work. In Device Manager there is no yellow question mark or red marks points to indicate a problem. Device shows SoundMax Integrated Digital Audio, although when I tried to download the Creative Labs - driver Upgrade Patch (which applies to the Sound Blaster Audigy) Manager, I got an error message "Setup could not detect any Sound Blaster Audio card on your system. Make sure that your Sound Blaster hardware is properly installed before running this Setup program. "How can I get a Sound Blaster Audio card? I have a Dell Dimension 4600. Windows XP.

    Thank you

    If the headphones work when they are plugged into the audio port, then your sound is properly configured and the port works correctly.

    Your speakers are connected to a power source? If Yes, is it plugged and are activated? Is there any other computers, you can try the speakers with?

  • Creative Sound Blaster Audigy 2 not recognized ZS running Win 7 Ultimate - 64-bit

    Friends,

    I have a situation where I ask for a help. It's as follows:

    1. the old desktop that PC is equipped with a device for Creative Sound Blaster USB based - Audigy 2 ZS attached, it was purchased in August 2008 and since then, initially worked with Win XP (32-bit) - August 2008 to Oct 2012, then Oct. 2012 (when I upgraded the operating system to Win 7 Ultimate 64 bit) until last week when I upgraded the PC hardware.

    2. However, after the upgrade, the PC does not recognize this device shows at all - a yellow exclamation mark with a label "unknown device" in Device Manager, when I connect the device to the USB port.

    3. the last time (in 2012) when I upgraded the OS on the old XP PC to Win 7 hardware, the operating system recognizes the device even without installing the drivers (i.e. for Audigy 2 ZS of Creative) and he has been active (usable), as soon as I plugged the same. However, later I applied Win 7 64 bit drivers from the Creative support site. Now, even though I applied the drivers for Win 7 64 bit for the device, it is not recognized under Windows.

    At the config of my old PC: Intel Core 2 Duo CPU E6540, card mother Intel graphics card Nvidia GT 220, some hard drives SATA 2 x 250 GB, 8 GB of RAM.

    At the config of my new PC: Intel Core i3 (3rd generation), card mother Gigabyte, graphics card Nvidia GTX 650, SATA 1 x 1 TB hard drives & 1 x 250 GB, 8 GB of RAM.

    I understand that this question, referring to the Creative device, should not fall directly under the responsibility of Microsoft, however, I looking for entries from anyone who may have any suggestions or is faced with identical situations / similar. Thanks for the patience to read this long query.

    -Milind

    BossDweebe,

    Thanks for the suggestions. The origin of difficulties - the PC also has graphics card Nvidia GTX 650 and as part of the package of drivers for this graphics card, HD Audio driver (Nvidia) also was installing. This HD audio driver not allow Creative Audigy 2 ZS on USB to be recognized as an audio device. So I had to remove the HD from Nvidia audio driver and then install (an update) Creative driver for the device. It worked.

    Thanks for your suggestions.

  • HP P6654y does not sound blaster Audigy

    I had problems with distortion of the sound through my main speakers audio integrated, so I installed - Soundblaster Audigy Fx-

    So far I have disabled the audio in the BIOS / disabled the HD audio in Device Manager / made sure not to install the HDMI audio option on my graphics card / uninstalled and reinstalled all the drivers for the Sound blaster.

    I have the plug connected to the decision-making Center Green on the new and still no audio sound card... I tried to connect on all ports and even tried my old speakers without result.

    Windows it is grateful in Device Manager and the program for Sound Blaster load well.

    I wonder if I just got a bad card?

    Hello

    I suggest that you try just one change at a time.  Video card tray and work on the issue of sound.  Its edge must be defined for the disable in the BIOS as shown by the image that I posted for you.  If stilll you have questions then contact Soundblaster.

  • Creative Sound Blaster Live! 5.1 PCI SB0220 - undetected

    I have a Creative Sound Blaster Live! 5.1 PCI Sound Card (model SB0220) who has always worked in Windows XP.  I bought a new desktop computer with Windows 7 and when I installed this card, the Manager of devices (under other devices) had yellow exclamation points for multimedia and peripheral of entry PCI Audio Controller.  When I tried to install the original CD software my PC blue screened on me despite the choice to run in compatibility mode.

    After months of waiting, Web site compatibility now reports that his Creative SB0220 card is compatible with Windows 7 and directs you to the Creative site to download a file called SB24_PCDRV_LB_1_04_0090.EXE.  When I run this file, I get the following error message:

    "Setup is unable to detect a product that is supported on your system.  Please ensure that your product is properly installed before running this Setup program.  The Setup will exit.

    When I took the sound card and rebooted my PC, nothing has been detected in Device Manager.  As soon as I reinstalled it, he appeared in the device again Manager so I know it is detected.

    It is better to wait for Microsoft to create the correct drivers or can I buy another sound card?

    Hey Lifeat50,

    Thanks for your post.

    The difference in sound quality seems perceptible for me, 16-bit to 24-bit.

    I'm a musician for years 20 - ish, and I think it's a reasonable upgrade for your videos.

    Here is a site that explains the difference (LOL, in detail):

  • Creative Sound Blaster Live! 5.1 PCI sound card drivers compatibility

    Creative Sound Blaster Live! 5.1 the PCI card is not compatible for 64 bit Windows 7. I tried this system does not detect automatically or manually. If anyone has the driver please post the link or the other using this card with windows 7 then tell me how it installed.

    I got creative sound blaster live 5.1 PCI sound card then visit this link but it does not work... not compatible with windows 7... : ()

    The Webcam Live! sound card was "placed" as a "legacy" product until Windows 7 was first be "shipped".  You will have a problem finding drivers and even less how it works.  I tried the "replacement: Audigy to work on my Windows 7 and it was a new model from Creative Labs."

    You should probably consider a replacement of the sound card.

  • Cannot get Sound Blaster Audigy SE SB0570 drivers to install correctly

    Windows 7 32 bit
    Mobo Gigabyte GA - M61P - S3 MB (nvidia/AMD compatible)
    Sound Blaster Audigy SE 7.1.

    I tried to install the XP drivers in compatibility mode, Windows 7 drivers, published by Creative (SB24_PCDRV_LB_1_04_0090), created by Daniel pilots (including one of its older versions for Vista) and also let Windows download and install the "correct" drivers for me.  He still will not install properly!

    I get this error for 'SB Audigy' and Trusted Audio Device from Microsoft: "Windows cannot load the driver for this hardware device. The driver may be corrupted or missing. (Code 39) »

    I tried to install it in safe mode, I tried to delete driver files associated with as much as I could and then put it back (was not able to remove all the due to permission issues), I also reinstalled 7 and tried to install the driver of Daniel immediately after installation of my chipset drivers), none of them (as well as many other combinations) gave rise to audio drivers works.

    If it's any help, Windows tells me contradictory things this way: install the software drivers SB Audigy Troubleshooting "audio playback" tells me SB Audigy successfully installed has a driver problem and it was not fixed.

    Any help would be GREATLY appreciated.  Thank you!

    @lou - no doubt the first thing I did.

    To fil919.  I have broke down and bought a new sound card to another manufacturer but had to jump through hoops to let him work, so I think that the process might have worked with the Creative card.

    Reinstall Windows 7 as a clean copy - NO upgrade (go ahead and have the plugged card).  Remove any audio drivers Windows tries to install (Device Manager).  Take Creative XP drivers, use it and launch the setup.exe under Windows XP SP2 w / admin rights compatibility mode (if you don't know how to do this: right-click on the exe, select properties and there is a "compatibility" tab to choose these options).  Make sure that you select the setup.exe in the folder "drivers" under this pack (just in case - the rest of the software is often unnecessary in my experience and the most variable we can eliminate the better!).  And as a note, it's literally the second thing that I installed after I reinstalled windows - first being my GPU drivers.  I hope this works!  Otherwise the sound card, I had was the SIIG SoundWave 7.1 PCI (on Newegg for $35) card, but I had to go through a clean install for this card to work.

    Hello:

    See if your BIOS has an embedded audio location.

    If so, it can automatically able to off when you installed the add-in on the sound card.

    Check the options you have for setting the audio embedded.

    If it is on Auto or disabled, change it to "Enabled", save the setting where you made the change, and again when you go out.

    The sound should then work on both devices.

    And if the sound card works with the integrated audio system setting to enabled, then change your Auto if aboard was off.

  • I accidentally uninstalled my Sound Blaster. Is there a way to reverse uninstall?

    I accidentally uninstalled my Sound Blaster, sound is now gone. Is there a way to reverse uninstall? I buy? Where?

    Unless you physically remove the computer sound card, when you restart the system, Windows should detect the hardware and install it.

    If Windows complains that he doesn't have a driver, you will need to download the appropriate driver (free).

    If you have a branded computer (Dell, HP, Gateway, Toshiba, etc.) go to the computer manufacturer's Web site, enter the credentials that are required on your computer (usually his style, "service tag" or similar) and you should be able to find the driver for your hardware.  Make sure you get one for your version of Windows.

    If you have a custom computer or built by a builder who is not a Web site, you will need to identify the particular model of SoundBlaster you have and get the driver from Creative Labs.  Start here--> http://support.creative.com/welcome.aspx#type_1 if you are unsure of the particular model that you have, you may need to open your computer and look physically the card.  If you do, take some precautions appropriate, for example, http://tips4pc.com/articles/computer%20maintenance/how_to_open_a_computer_case_safe.htm

    In the case of a computer from a major manufacturer contact them via their web site.  Many have recovery media low cost for just the situation you encounter.  Also they can cause (however unlikely) a new product key to replace the one that has rubbed off.  If all else fails see also: http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=KB;en-us;326246
  • New activation code for Vista?

    So I went from XP to Vista with upgrade license.  Unfortunately, I had trouble getting through my existing windows installation and installed the software from the disc.

    Because it is a clean install, my Vista activation code does not work.  Very well, I went online to try to buy a new activation code.  Need me just to the home page of Windows 8.  I followed the instructions on the search for the phone line automated to reflect activation that might work.  There is no such thing; the options are to activate online or activate any.
    If my computer stops working after 30 days because I can't get a new activation code for my existing, legitimate product, I think I'll have to join the ranks of those who have learned to install an illegal copy of Windows.

    No need to buy a new license.

    Your problem is that you try to use a license upgrade with a clean install.
    No worries, there is a solution.
    1. click on [start], type "regedit" and press ENTER.
    2. navigate to the following registry key.
    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/Software/Microsoft/Windows/CurrentVersion/Setup/OOBE /.
    3. double-click on MediaBootInstall, change the value from 1 to 0.
    4. close regedit.
    5. open an elevated command prompt.
    (See "How to run a command with elevated privileges?")
    6. run the following command.
    slmgr /rearm
    7 reset.
    8. try to activate your Vista again.
