To workaround this issue, run the KillDrv.exe utility included and restart when asked to do so. Proceed normally and uninstall all the software or only the driver.
If you have previously installed the Audigy 5/RX driver, you MUST run this utility.
As the KillDrvX verify the driver version installed, running it won’t do any harm, even if the driver version is not affected.
HOW TO INSTALL THE GAMEPORT DRIVER
You can find a GameportReadMe.htm file in the folder where you unpacked the Support Pack.
Just follow the steps shown in the screenshots.
Windows XP and Windows Server 2003 root certificates update
To use the latest version of Dolby Digital Live, update the root certificates.
Run RootsUpdrootsupd.exe and wait a few seconds. It’s a silent installation.
WINDOWS 8 OR LATER DOES NOT SAVE SETTINGS
Configure all settings and shutdown, hibernate or put your computer to sleep so that your settings will be saved.
This does not work if you disable Fast startup permanently or temporarily (by holding the Shift key while shutting down) or if you disable Hybrid Sleep.
OpenAL 2D benchmark in RightMark 3DSound crashes your system
The included driver for Windows Vista or later has a bug that crashes your system if you run the OpenAL 2D benchmark using 63 buffers.
No problem With 62 or fewer buffers.
OpenAL 3D and OpenAL 3D + EAX benchmarks are not affected.
Details: DRIVER_IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL (0x000000D1) — ctoss2k.sys
There is no DirectSound hardware acceleration on Windows XP 64-bit (x64) with 4GB RAM or more
The Audigy driver does not support 64-bit addressing, disabling the DirectSound hardware acceleration and causing multichannel sound to be played only in the stereo channels (front left/right).
Workarounds:
— install the 32-bit (x86) version of Windows XP.
— limit to less than 4GB the amount of RAM available to Windows.
— enable the «Memory Hole» setting in the BIOS Setup, if your motherboard supports it.
— install and use Creative ALchemy to convert the DirectSound API calls into OpenAL, which is not affected by this issue.
Karaoke effects make the audio play in mono
You can avoid this issue by using EAX Console to enable Karaoke effects. Audio Console is affected by the issue.
Optionally, follow the steps below.
Open EAX Settings, select a Karaoke effect, then click the Edit button.
Click on the Source (Wave) tab and change the Original sound to 100% and Pitch Shift to 0%. Click the Save environment button.
Repeat the steps for all Karaoke effects.
These changes will be valid only for the current speaker configuration. If desired, repeat the same process for each speaker configuration.
Using other devices to output the DDL encoded audio
Only for Windows Vista or later, you can use any «SPDIF/HDMI Out» from HD Audio, PCI or USB device to output 5.1 encoded audio.
To expose all SPDIF/HDMI Out devices to Audio Console, run the EndPtUtl.exe in the Audio Console installation folder.
MediaSource DVD-Audio Player system requirements
— 32-bit edition of Windows XP or later
— any Audigy 2, Audigy 2 ZS, Audigy 4 or Audigy 5/RX card.
Built-in Decoder on Windows Vista or later
To use the built-in decoder, make sure it is enabled in Audio Console.
Select «SPDIF Out (Creative SB Audigy (WDM))» as the output device of your player and then configure the AC3/DTS filter to send the stream through SPDIF.
When you restart your computer, the Tone settings (Bass and Treble) are not applied.
Just readjust one of the controls one time per boot.
Equalizer and EAX effects are not available when using OpenAL or ALchemy
Only Tone (Bass and Treble) and CMSS 3D (CMSS, CMSS2 and Stereo Surround) features are available.
There is no sound in games with OpenAL support
Disable Advanced EQ and Special FX by selecting «No effect» before running the game or program.

(*) If the current speaker configuration is 4.1 or 5.1 Speakers, first change it to 2/2.1 mode, then finally change it to Headphones, otherwise the effects won’t work.
Facts about the methods:
— «Normalizer» gives the highest volume, but mutes MIDI.
— «Flat» gives an average volume increase, doesn’t have any issues and you can tweak the EQ if you want to.

Thank you all for putting this together! Anyone who downloads one of these ISOs, the least you can do is sign up on the forum and post a thank you. This saved me sooo much time from trial and error and searching for what should be posted on the SB website. So THANK YOU!
Installed PCI-e X-Fi Ti ISO on Win 7 64 bit. Just needed to uninstall the driver that windows found first. Excellent work.
-
I installed the pack for x-fi extreme gamer
I have sound, but I cant get to audio control panel as a window pops up saying device is not supported…..WTF
So I cant use CMSS….which is reason for installing these in the first place.
Funny thing is my soundcard is listed in device manager.
Looks like alot of people have problems with this…..I guess x-fi extreme gamer and window 7 is just fubar.

the only thing fubar is improper un-installation , I bet you installed Creative, then some Pax stuff and now Daniel K stuff.
edit:
i found my post..i had a similar problem once, it wouldn’t detect it if i opened console launcher- it said no creative device found..
the issue was mix with original creative, pax and daniel K..
i had to
1) uninstall everything (all creative stuff — in installer)
2) delete all creative folders (app data — local and roaming; common files; normal creative folders — check for all!!)
3)run sweeper 2.7.5
4)ccleaner — registry cleaner to remove any leftovers
5) run Win7 manager registry cleaner (for final touch)
5.1)ccleaner — registry cleaner again if win7 manager left some conflicts
5.2)reboot
6) install Daniel K UAA 1.5 again and i got it fixed.but dont reboot do all these steeps from 1-5 in one go..
-
you on windows 7
I have tried about 3 duifferent drivers
I have run driver cleaner everytime to insure nothing creative is still in the system….i run in safe mode…..the reboot and check for any leftovers
Always with the same result
I always have sound……but never able to use any of the consoles or apps to get to cmss 3d

yea it happened to me 2 times in win xp and 1 time in win7 x64.. lol i mixed original creative — it didnt have this audio cp with daniel_K and later with pax..
btw, you dont have to go to safemode, first uninstall everything (driver,etc) with help of ccleaner uninstaller or windows uninstaller then search for all creative folders..but be sure to delete all creative folders in application data, common files (click on folder >tools> folder options> and show any hidden folders, win7 has this disabled by default, idk anymore i think i enabled it with tuneup)
And about Windows 7 manager you can DL 15day trial. Its important because it found around 400 deep registry conflicts with creative stuff at steep #2 deleted files, while tuneup2010 didn’t..
Well if you dont want daniel_k Xfi uaa1.5 pack, you can try other like the one off SB X-Fi PCI Install Disc 1.0 or latest pax pack.. its good to use packs because they have all the important stuff like volume panel, Alchemy, etc..:nerd:

Does this driver improve sound quality or performance? Are there any tweaks?
No, this driver does not improve sound quality nor increase performance.
No, there are no tweaks.
If someone states that a driver improves sound quality and performance, you are being fooled, cheated.
It is even worse that the so called tweaks come from a person who is not EVEN technically acknowledged, does NOT know anything about Windows internals, software engineering and sound fidelity that all audiophiles always look for.
If you “feel” the sound better, that is the infamous placebo effect and there is no real proof that any tweaks work.
In fact, I have yet to see a driver that states in its release notes that it improves sound quality.
I’ve disassembled about every single .SYS driver, .DLL libraries and .EXE executables and found nothing.
There are some undocumented registry values, but nothing related to sound quality or performance.
Would the so called tweaks even exist, they would be in my Support Packs, you can bet that.
Fixes and improvements:
– Fixes Windows crash (BSOD) when you restart, shutdown or suspend Windows with Encoder activated.
– Fixes high CPU usage when DTS Interactive encoder is enabled on Windows XP/Server2003.
– Fix the EAX Console installation error on Windows XP/Server2003.
– Removes the Microsoft Audio Home Theater Effects to (try to) fix the static issue when playing audio using DirectSound interface.
– Adds WaveRT interfaces for Windows 7/Vista
– DTS Interactive encoder now works on Windows XP without any tricks.
– Fixes a cosmetic issue on Audio Console, encoder status now says DTS Interactive.
– Readds support for 64-bit OpenAL and 64-bit ASIO.
– Fixes Microphone not available on Audigy1 cards on Windows 7 / Vista.
– Enables support for WASAPI exclusive-mode event-driven playback, seems to be working just fine.
– Fixes the enhancements errors in Windows mixer and Windows Media Player.
– Adds Microsoft Audio Home Theather Effects for both Speakers and S/PDIF Out endpoints.
– Includes Encoder Switcher to enable DTS Interactive on Audigy cards.
– Fixes the Audio Console “Internal application error” when enabling the DDL Encoder on localized installs.
– Updates Audio Console to display DTS Interactive in the Encoder tab when Encoder switcher is used.
– Workarounds a bug that unexpectedly resets the speaker configuration.
– Prevents an issue during installation on Windows 7/Vista that may result in low volume when certain enhancements are enabled.
– Implements Hardware CMSS Headphone by using a workaround.
– Updates all InstallShield setup scripts to support Windows 7.
– Fixes installation INI to properly install applications depending on the detected OS.
– Removes COM workaround for Equalizer, fixed by Creative.
– Adds workaround to a memory corruption issue preventing Equalizer from starting on Windows 7/Vista.

Undocumented fixes by Creative (not listed in the release notes):

– Fixes the Enable Dolby Digital Live checkbox not staying checked when Audio Console is closed.
– Fixes Equalizer Out of Memory error.
– Fixes Equalizer settings being lost on Windows 7 / Vista when speaker configuration is changed.

The Audigy driver does not support 64-bit addressing, disabling the DirectSound hardware acceleration and causing multichannel sound to be played only in the stereo channels (front left/right).
Workarounds:
– install the 32-bit (x86) version of Windows XP.
– limit to less than 4GB the amount of RAM available to Windows.
– enable the “Memory Hole” setting in the BIOS Setup, if your motherboard supports it.
Microphone issues on Windows 7/Vista 64-bit (x64) with 4GB of RAM or more
Audigy driver does not support 64-bit addressing, resulting in random issues with the Microphone (static, robotic or distorted voice, white noise).
Workarounds:
– install the 32-bit (x86) version of Windows
– limit the RAM available to Windows to less than 4GB
– enable Memory Hole in BIOS Setup, if your motherboard supports the setting
MediaSource DVD-Audio Player system requirements
– 32-bit edition of Windows 7 / Vista / XP
– any Audigy 2, Audigy 2 ZS or Audigy 4 card
Built-in Decoder on Windows 7 / Vista (requires Service Pack 1)
To use the built-in decoder, make sure it is enabled in Audio Console.
Select “SPDIF Out (Creative SB Audigy (WDM))” as the output device of your player and then configure the AC3/DTS filter to send the stream through SPDIF.
When you restart your computer, the Tone settings (Bass and Treble) are not applied.
Just readjust one of the controls one time per boot.
Advanced EQ and Special FX not available on Windows 7 / Vista
These presets don’t work on Windows 7 / Vista.
There is no sound in games with OpenAL support on Windows XP
Disable Advanced EQ and Special FX selecting “No effect” before running the game or program.
Equalizer settings are lost
When you run a game with OpenAL support or using Creative ALchemy, the Equalizer settings are lost.
Just run Equalizer and the saved setting is loaded automatically.
Tone settings are reset when speaker configuration is changed
Bass and treble settings are reset when speaker configuration is changed.
DTS Encoder Switcher
The Encoder Switcher is now part of Audio Console.
A shortcut is created in the Programs -> Creative folder in Start Menu.
For additional info, read thoroughly the ReadMe.txt file included in the EncSwitcher folder where you extracted the Support Pack.
On Windows 7/Vista, when using DTS Interactive encoder, you MUST use ANOTHER SPDIF Out device, otherwise the CTAudSvc (Creative Audio Service) won’t work properly (high CPU usage).
Hardware CMSS Headphone
To use the hardware CMSS you need to select “Disable all enhancements” in the “Enhancements” tab on:
Playback Devices -> Speaker Properties
Now check the Speaker configuration in “Playback devices”.
If it is Stereo, run Audio Console and change it to 4.1, 5.1 or 7.1 and only after that change it to Headphones.
This procedure ensures that CMSS(1) will work after a Windows restart, otherwise only CMSS2 will work.
MIDI Device Configuration Utility for Windows 7 / Vista
Use this utility to change the MIDI playback device for 32-bit and 64-bit applications.

To verify the file hashes, I recommend HashTab.
Remove all apps, driver then remove the Creative folders in the Program Files (x86) and Program Files folders.
Under the 64-bit edition of Windows 7/Vista, you might want to try the Win7Vista_4GB_MicFix.reg registry patch that might fix the issues with the Microphone when there are 4GB of RAM or more memory installed. Simply double click the registry file and restart Windows. It is not guaranteed to work on every system.
