![]() ![]() S/PDIF-In working fine in WinXP-MCE but not in Vista Ultimate. You are their best third party.Ĭreative still has acute cranial rectitis.ĪTI’s web site steers you to third party software to restore full functionality (with a corporate “maybe”) to the card. The same might be in the mix with the Audigy, especially with regards to decoding Dolby and such. And, their off the record belief that there will never be capture support for the card. only after being “100% guaranteed” thru their tech support that it would have drivers and total functionality by July at the latest….I also confirmed this with them at least two more times as July approached….guess what? I purchased a very expensive ATI All-In-Wonder card as I built my new Vista machine in early Feb. Have you considered that the reluctance to do this comes from some deep dark reasons concerning DRM? Creative would get off his creative ass and release the correct driver package so that we can all once more use the device we paid for….it would be a good thing…. Don’t get me wrong, that’s great on its’ own….again many thanks. If you have any ideas, it sure would be appreciated, as I have done a lot of work just to move the sucker to the Vista computer, and all I have gained so far is 5.1. Maybe I’ve overshot the extent of what your great package provides, and / or I should not be fiddling with the setup command again in the AudCon folder, but I was under the impression all these months that this is the folder that one must use because the original CD programs are doa (probably forever, no?) Check Internet Connections (Internet Based Setups) Then, I tried opening up the file from your download that in the AudCon folder, thinking that was the console….hit the setup file, and got this: ![]() Here is what I did: 1) I let the download package completely run on its’ own (5.1 returns, minimal control back, but not what I have been reading in your site and on Creative that should improve….seems to still be pretty limited…no SPDIF in, for example, and pretty generic looking…just as my onboard generic stuff looked….and yes, before my reinstall, I zapped all audio stuff, Generic, Creative, and otherwise)…. ![]() I hope this fix helps somebody as much as it helped me. Now you can use more than 2 speakers in Windows Media Player when playing. Now you can enable the internal decoder and your SPDIF IN can now decode DTS. Now reboot and afterwards you’ll have a brand new tab in the Creative Audio Console (CAC -lol) labelled “Decoder”. Copy them and place them into your c:\windows\system32\drivers folder, replacing existing versions. These files are ctac32k.sys and ctdvda2k.sys. Now extract the R144728.EXE file (again using WinRar) to a folder but dont install it just cancel after extracting.Īll you really want are two files that you can find located in your newly extracted folder R144728\Drivers\wdm\win2k_xp\i386\ Just go on the Dell site and get these Dell drivers. I strongly suggest you try the recently added Audigy Series Vista Driver Installer Package before you try this manual install.įirstly we need to download the Vista x86 X-Fi driver from Dell. Please Note: The follow method is the advanced manual method. What a load of rubbish! Creative Labs removed Dolby decoding on their mainstream drivers, yet saw fit to leave the feature in Dell drivers! These functions are not supported at driver level in Windows Vista and going forward will be supported at application level by applications such as Power DVD or WinDVD.” “ Will decoding of Dolby Digital and DTS signals be supported in the future? If not, why not? Mine worked for me playing DVD’s and playing games, but when I played multi channel mp3 through Windows Media Player the sound would be 2 channel only. As far as I know this fix will work on most Creative Labs sound cards in Vista 32bit and 64bit.ĥ.1 sound is great when it works. If you haven’t you need to go back and read Working 5.1 Audigy Series Vista Drivers. So hopefully you’ve all got your Audigy’s working in 5.1 now. ![]()
