I also have this same problem. EAX Console, Speaker Settings, and Surround Mixer all give his error. The driver is installed and I do have sound so I'm not sure what went wrong. Also, using the control panel addon I can access some of the configuration.

Any news on this? It's really quite annoying not being able to change my volume through the mixer.

Cheers,
SlasherKG

yeah it won't say audigy 2 zs, mine still says audigy 2. don't worry, really the CTCOMP patch gets rid of a line or adds a line (i forget) to bypass the card detection. its really stupid because creative could so easily make a UDP (unified driver package) but they persist not to. idiots, its more work for both them and us.

well if u used the 7.1.0 ctcomp patch i don't know if it's completely gonna work. best to try the latest which i posted. ask somebody in the other audigy 2 drivers thread also or give that a check. lot of fixes there and more knowledgable people than me haha.

Just checking to see if any has gotten the iso and to see if it unrared w/out errors. I was checking the log files and it listed some errors. It is raining here and a chance for severe storms so cable may go out.

hi i tried the guide and it works only problem is i get error messages when trying to use the eax console and media sourceplayer, im using an audigy 2 card and winxp sp1. i used all updates from the creative site app and driver

EDIT

got it working, just applied the cms update again

Genius

You will have to perform a full uninstallation and reinstallation of your Audigy software. Do not install the DTS Neo6 update crap. I believe that's what causes the errors.

Oh nm you got it working.

SBLive Value CT4780 Audigy Driver install tips

When installing choose custom and DO NOT install:

1. Eax
2. Speaker calibration
3. Mixer (by not installing this, the windows 1 will work automatically from the button in the Mediasource player)
4. speaker settings


To get the Surround Mixer back, use the software you where using previously. Do a custom install and install ONLY the mixer.

Works like a champ.

i love to hear

"works perfectly" and stuff i feel satisfied lol. i don't know anything about coding drivers, i barely even know java lol so dont think i did lots of work here lol. i just put scattered info together thats all

for those using sblive, if you want the control panel addition you must edit the YourCPLConfig.txt file to correct the path there for the CTPanel.exe :

you must change it from:

C:\Program Files\Creative\SBAudigy2\Program\WDM\COMMON\CtPane l.exe

to:

C:\Program Files\Creative\Program\WDM\COMMON\CtPanel.exe

Well, at least that's the case on my sblive-equipped pc.

sidebar

thanks to Pimpsta and the host of the files...

works perfectly on my system (WinXP sp2).
My soundcard was an Audigy2.

redpandaroon

thanks for the tips!

also, for those who are getting the eax console errors on your audigy2 (maybe audigy or sblive), do not install the mediasource or dts neo6 update. i get errors if i did install those 2 updates. without those 2 updates, i do not get the eax console error.

i think something about the mediasource or dts neo6 update screws up the eax console. so stick with the mediasource on the cd for now.

cheers.

REDPANDAROON : this free upgrade must have really made you happy to inspire your first post after 7 months registered, lol.

Patched driver works perfectly well, but are there any suggestions about what to do with EQ, EAX Console and Speaker Settings? They refuse to work even with patch...

sidebar

what updates did you install?
in what order?

try re-installing the CMS patch.

Dormidont

no updates at all, just the soft from original (I mean patched original) CD...
and after that I applied an EQ patch mentioned above.

x0ph3r

Hmm, kinda off-topic, but I think I could host those pictures for the guide. I've only got 50mb space (or so they say, there's no absolute limit ) and I dont have any bandwidth limitations :P So email me if you're interested, Im not too good at reading PM's..

you're probably the only person who has not applied the driver updates, lol.

My recommendation is a complete uninstall via control panel, then go into safe mode and use Driver Cleaner (selecting creative audio).

If you don't know what Driver Cleaner is, it's available on this site for download.

I may have missed what card you are using to apply the drivers, what is it.


After the clean install, you need to follow the install guide exactly. It's relatively simple so I assume yours isnt working properly because of your card itself or you forgot something simple, like not booting to safe mode to apply the patch.

black hole sun

I've got an Audigy 2 Platinum. Is there really much of a difference when installing these drivers? Like lower CPU usage, better sound? Or am I just better off leaving my defacto Creative drivers installed (latest version of course) alone?

OpusP.Gladiator

Same card here.... I really wanted to get the eq patch working but my raid drvrs or something is preventing my safe mode.... anyways everything else works like a charm....oh yea 'cept still havin a prob with the dvd-audio player not recognizing my samsung combo....
that's really what I need since I love my dvd-audio discs........ Low-bit MP3's are Crap and hurt my ears!!!!
--In other words... Everythings working great 'cept 1 or2 2 minor probs on my end Thanks again!

Sorry if this has been asked. Does the stereo x 2 feature work on an Audigy 2 oem? If so I will update.
