Hi, I'm doing a clean Windows XP Pro install and would like the best shot at installing the correct SB Live Platinum 5.1 software. The last time I did this on the same machine, was shortly after XP became available and the SB software was hit and miss, though I was able to get most of it to work...

I recently purchased my audigy 2 zs platinum Pro and my sourround sound works perfectly; however, I'm not able to get the SPDIF output to work that is in back of the I/O external Hub. I've connected a speaker with a RCA plug and plugged it into the output but I get no sound. Maybe I'm expecting it...

Hi Hoping a SBLive guru can shed some light on this: I just picked up the SBLive to use soundfonts within Cakewalk. I would like to just use it for SF and nothing else (kind of a separate midi device itself). I have a TBS Montego sound card that I would like to use as the audio in/out...

I have read an article at http://alive.singnet.com.sg/audigy/review/audigy-drive.htm which states that the Audigy 1 works fine with the LiveDrive from a 5.1 Platinum, but does anyone know if it would work with an Audigy 2? I would like to upgrade just the card but continue to use the...

Hi all, I have a SBLive Value! card, and a Logitech Z680 set of cards. I connect now through 6ch direct aanlog input and I have 5.1 surround sound in some of the games I play (well, you know, the ones that actually are written for that) . I never have surround sound when watching DVD's though....

I recently installed a new video card, ATI All in Wonder Radeon Pro 9000 with TV Tuner. While the case was open, I replaced my Firewire card with a combo USB 2..0/Firewire card. Now when I record wav files, the sound is skipping, scratchy, and garbled. I noticed that SB and the combo card...

I have had a Soundblaster Audigy Platinum for some time and have had to reinstall my operating system. For months I have been struggling to get my Audigy to pass the speaker test that comes with the software. The only channels that I can actually hear are the front right and left. I have followed...

I am using Creative Play Centre 2 V1.01.71.0 software with my SB Live board on an ME system. I always get an error message "Cannot initialise MediaDet's COM object" whenever I open Play Centre2. I can play MP3 files from my HD but can no longer play audio CDs from my TEAC CD-W512. Have checked...

Has anyone got a change to mess with the DDTS-100 decoder? I bought the audigy 2 platinum ex in hopes to use it as a decoder for my console dvd player, but the dolby digital delay is so bad that i don't even have it hooked up anymore. any idea if this decoder will work any better for what i'm...

Hi, I'm in the process of getting a new system setup for my partner who is into surround sound editing. She's got a new JVC RX-5032V integrated dolby digital amp. From the Audigy 1 card she's got in her current setup, it only sends a PCM Stereo - this using a minijack to phono cable (coax in on...

P Please, keep in mind that the software configuration will need to be adjusted to make it possible for you to receive Dolby Digital sound and you need to be playing a file that is encoded with Dolby Digital 5.1. Software Settings that Need to be Configured: 1. The speaker configuration should be...

I installed an Audigy 2 and find that there's no level meter on Wavestudio as there was with the version of Wavestudio that came with the Live. Any idea why this is? I find no setting to add it or remove it.

Forgive me for asking the obvious, but 1) Did you use the original flat cable, (because although it looks like one, it is not a standard IDE cable), and 2) Did you reconnect the power? Again, I'm sorry if these are too obvious, but if I had a nickel... HTH

Im having an issue with enablings CMSS on the Audigy2 NX. It is connected to the optical out to my speaker set, which is set up correctly, becasue it worked fine before.

The window appears automatically when I reboot the computer and I have to click on exit to get rid of it. There is nothing in the startup file. I have windows 2000. The autohide option is greyed out. How do I fix this? Should I reinstall? Thanks, Chuck

I was wondering if anyone has had a similar problem to me. Now in the past I've had driver problems with creative's drivers, but I wanted to give it another try. Well after installing the latest drivers, my PC will lock solid when I attempt to use special keyboard features with my...

Has anyone experience this problem? If so, what did you do? I have the Soundblaster 2ZS Platinum Pro Soundcard. It seems when I mute the computer and then unmute it, the computer sometimes doesn't change the graphic that tells me that it's on mute or not. So even though I have unmuted the computer...
