Sound screwd up -

[Madxgraphics]

Have you tried resetting to defaults in Creative control panel? Also do you know if these are beta drivers? If you let me know what card you have I will try and find the right drivers for your card, and we can see if that works.

Beta Drivers wouldn't be installed via Auto Update

Hi Belloni
Do yourself a favour, go HERE and follow the steps layed out and i'm sure your problem will be resolved..If ever you have a problem with any device after drivers have been updated, rolling them back to a previous driver config should always be your first port of call..

 

[Belloni]

It doesn't give me the option to roll back driver.

When i go to sound in control panal and do - speakers - 2- Creative SB-fx test - it works, then when i go to SPDIF out and test, i hear nothing, does this help?

If you are Using an optical out cable (SPDIF) then it should work, but if you are using a 3.5mm Jack then it won't as the SPDIF is Digital and for high definition sound.

I can't think what the problem is :s maybe when i did driver sweeper, it said file not found, that could be it?

They work, just not ... working properly lol

what are they not doing?

 

[Belloni]

Just no sound when i try to play music or stuff.

However when i go to the creative console, and test each one, they all work :s

whats that got to do with it? That can be disabled in a matter of seconds....

Tough one Belloni.

Check all your settings again, if that dont work try ripping out all the drivers for sound card, make sure on-board is disabled via BIOS, and reinstall latest drivers direct from creative again?

 

[Belloni]

I'm thinking it's the master volume?! How do i access that on vista, can't find it.

 

[Belloni]

Right, put in CD, did remove all stuff, and then went to programme files, removed all the stuff from there too.

Gone to the folder, and it says i need permission to delete it?!

Hi V_R,


The reason why I asked the quistion was to see if windows made a sound when it started. to see weather the codecs needed updating.

lol

 

[Belloni]

This is seriously annoying now, i've reinstalled several times, to nothing, just the same where testing the speakers work, then when i play music, nothing.

What the hell have i done updating the damn new drivers Knew i shouldn't have.

 

[V_R]

have you tried reinstalling the drivers that worked? (sorry i aint read the whole thread)

 

[Belloni]

Only way i've fixed it is by putting the plugs via the PC, so i don't have Xfi now ... what a waste.

 

[V_R]

you have disabled the onboard audio aint ya (BIOS)? and uninstalled drivers?
