Dell :: Creative SB Audigy ADVANCED MB X64 Drivers?
May 15, 2010
I was a little home cleaning and found my Creative Sound Blaster Audigy ADVANCED MB disk what I got with my XPS M1730 at that time. I lost interest in this software after upgrading from Vista x32 to Vista x64, because it didn't work on a 64bits system.
Currently I'm running Windows 7 x64. I want to try this software again, but of course I can't install it on this 64bits system either. I was hoping that meanwhile after this long time things would've changed and tried to find some update at Creative, without prevail.
Is there still no 64bits support for this software?
I really like to see it running under Win7.

When I bought my Dell 3 years ago I got the option to include the Creative SoundBlaster Audigy software. It is just software, not an actual sound card upgrade, but it definitely made audio quality much better. The computer has a Sigmatel audio device.
Does anyone know if there is a driver/software update for this that will make it work with Windows 7? I installed the software from Dell's drivers and downloads site which made it work with Vista, but no luck. Any help is appreciated.

My sound is horrific through my speakers, to the point where i think the speakers are shot, except i've barely used them.
If anyone knows of any software to fix this issue or anything else, please throw me a link or anything. I've been through the ringer with creative and they aren't comprehending and i don't have the time to be on the phone with them. They have no idea what they're doing.
The software cd goes to install and activates fine but it doesn't find hardware to give drivers to or "enhance". I have the dell provided 64-bit sound drivers in for the base sound card. Specs:
S1737
P8400
3Gb
250Gb 7200rpm
Intel Wireless 5100N
Slot Load DVD Burner
17" WLED Screen
Fingerprint reader (Works Great)

Has anyone been able to install the Audigy software that came with their m1730 after installing Vista64 bit version?
When I try to install, it says I have to install the audio drivers first! I did install them first! Aren't they the SigMatel drivers found on Dell website?
This and the touchpad are the only thing missing on my installation of Vista64 (was Vista 32 OEM).

I have a query about the titled soft/hardware. Firstly, which is it? Is it simply software, or is additional hardware required to run it?
Has anyone had a chance to compare the normal sound with this package, to see if there's much difference? I hear this allows EAX, which I would really like. I'm just not sure what exactly it is! :-)

I've just done a fresh install of Windows 7 on my Studio XPS 1640 but as is widely known there is certain software which isn't available in 'Dell Support Downloads' or 'My Dell Downloads'.
I find it incredible that you can pay Dell for software (X-Fi) and they don't provide customers with the install files. I've still got the original HD and the recovery partition is next to useless as it's just a pre-configured Vista install, no individual setup files. Trying to rip the files from the Program Files directory isn't feasible as there are files all over the place which would require manual registration.
The closest I've found to the Webcam software is this:
Creative Labs Webcam Manager Utility A04
But it's a really old version and doesn't work with the camera in the 1640.
I've spoken to tech support and they directed me to an X-Fi software update which is useless unless you have the original software installed. I've asked for the install CDs to be sent to me but I'm not holding much hope. Why the hell doesn't Dell just provide the programs for download in the support section?

creative add-on drivers ( i went for the upgrade). i have 64bit OS(shipped) and this stuff was not installed out-of-the-box.
so i pop in the disc and install the stuff following the instructions. but the console app, control panel don't work. incompatible device stuff. now, what could be the issue.
it' weekend so i cant really talk to the rep or support guys. i called up the xps support and the guy was ncie enought to tell me that this stuff doesnt work on 64bit. but then went on to give me a patch which would reportedly make it work. but that patch seemingly fails to install.

since I haven’t been able to find a thread listing all the latest drivers for the dv5t I've decided to make one myself. Let me be clear, this is for ADVANCED USERS ONLY.
For the average user you can find the latest drivers for your specific model at www.hp.com. This thread may contain drivers that are not specifically targetted at the HP dv5t but appear to work with it correctly. These drivers may not include vendor specific functionality that HP may have added (although I have not heard of any instances of this being so). Some of these drivers may work with other series of laptops but this is NOT guaranteed. I cannot guarantee these drivers will work correctly for everyone here so please be careful - only install these if you know how to revert any changes you have made. I am only including WHQL certified drivers, so regardless of what site they come from you know they are authentic. I've tested some of these drivers on my machine and they work perfectly well however I am unable to test everything. USE AT YOUR OWN RISK. Without further ado:
Intel Chipset Software Installation Utility:
Version: 9.1.1.1020
OS Support: Windows Vista, Windows 7
Link: http://downloadcenter.intel.com/down...10884&lang=eng
Notes: I recommend running the setup file from an elevated command prompt with the "-overall" flag (without quotes). This will assure that all devices are updated.....

Thanks to a post by PDSway, I got the Intel Centrino Ultimate-N 6300 Advanced Wireless Card working fine with the Windows 7 64-bit 13.0 drivers on my XPS 1340.
Has anyone been able to successfully install the Intel Centrino Ultimate-N 6300 Advanced Wireless Card 13.1.1.1 drivers for Windows 7 64-bit?
I get an error code saying it couldn't find the digital signature for the driver

Not that I think it makes a big difference but how do you go about installing the sb audigy software that I bought with my XPS?
I have the disc that came with the laptop but when I go to install it says "no drivers found, please install drivers then run this setup program again"

I can't find where to get the Creative Sound Blaster software that came with my laptop. Is it on one of the discs? Can you download it from a dell site or something? I can't find the download, only a driver for it on the dell canada support site.

My friends that are into desktop publishing and graphic design are very pro Mac-centric when it comes to their work. They tell me that Macs are better than PCs (with Windows) when it comes to developing their work.
That may have been the case in the past, but Macs are not really necessary for that line of work anymore. Many applications are now more readily developed for Windows based PCs. On Windows, you get the whole Adobe Creative Suite, many audio manipulation programs superior to Garage Band (i.e. Ableton), and other neat applications. The only thing Macs have over Windows is the excellent Final Cut Pro, although Premiere is more than competent.
Many musicians have been noted to be avid Mac users. However, major pop music producers such as Timbaland and Lil' Jon now develop their music under a Windows-based platform.
Is the Mac necessary (or worth it) for doing this type of work other than the sheer chic and hip factor of Macs?

It looks like lightroom and premier has closed the gap in the windows land compared to Aperture and Final Cut. And with OpenCL's focus on using the GPU to boost performance and Apple doing it's very best to off Adobe.... is there any real advantage in software in OSX anymore? Or is it all about familiarity and preference?
I was kind of considering the i5 MBP since I'm more into editing than gaming but honestly, if I can just get a beefy Win7 laptop and run software with the same features that are just as reliable I don't really see the point in spending less for more.

Just found this and was wondering if it can be used in a regular minipcie slot. With every connector of course.
Or something like letting the X-FI chip doing all the work , processing etc. and lead the output through existing onboard audio.
[url]
There is a REAL X-Fi chip on board not those lower end ones used in usb and pcmcia solutions.

Is there any modded bios available with some advanced "oc" features. I am trying to undervolt cpu from bios, shut down one core, slow down clock, change fan from silent to normal mode... etc... (This wouldn't be too much to ask from regular desktop board)
Until I boot and start windows my cpu is already too hot. (my notebook is ok, just cpu was upgraded and it's overheats a bit.)
Does this original bios has some secret menus to tweak those settings ?

As the Lenovo Ultrabay Slim II HDD Bay (for T400/T500...) fits into the Dell Modular Bay,
maybe we can connect an "Advanced UltraBay II Li-Polymer-Battery" into the DELL notebooks.
2700mAh of additional power? About the same Voltage as the primery battery ....

I am trying to activate the infrared sensor, but there is no "advanced" tab in the BIOS.
Is there a trick to getting to this tab, or getting it to appear? I have tried pressing the "m" key instead of F2 when the POST screen is on, but nothing happens; it just goes on to boot the OS.

where the settings of the fan's silent mode are saved?
I think they are not saved properly when you change it in Vaio Control Center.
My SR's fan is running nearly permanently though I'm only surfing, Office-ing, etc....
I have the newest european SR5 with Win7, bought yesterday.

Is it possible that I replace the Z11's stock Wifi with the Lenovo Intel Centrino Advanced-N + WiMAX 6250? I may use upcoming Sprint 4G data service that required a WiMax card. I can order the Intel Centrino Advanced-N + WiMAX 6250 from Lenovo.

I have recently upgraded to windows 8.1 on my Acer Aspire and unfortunately since then, Dolby Advanced Audio V2 refuses to work. I have uninstalled my audio drivers, and re-installed with the latest versions, I have uninstalled DAAV2 and re-installed, and it still does not work. I'm not really sure where to go from here. It launches properly and you can turn it on and off, but ultimately, it does not show any difference between having it on anymore or off. As well as the fact that the little panel you open where it shows the bars while you play music, doesn't move at all. I use my Acer Aspire mainly for music and youtube videos and the like, so this is rather important to me.

The Troubleshoot icon that should be under the 'Advanced Startup' Option is missing. I don't know if it's because I upgraded from Windows 8 to Windows 8.1 but I used that previously when I need to go to safe mode. Suddenly it disappeared. I can only pick two options, "Continue to Windows 8.1" and "Turn off the PC".

Dolby Advanced Audio v2 issue .....
Â
I added a second drive (SSD) successfully to the E540, everything works and is set up properly. I still have the original HDD in place and got Windows 8.1 (x64) installed on both drives. However, I cannot run Dolby Advanced Audio v2 when booting from the (fresh) Windows installation on the SSD. Right after booting or trying to start the application there is a Windows error message telling me that the Dolby-driver cannot be run and I should reinstall the application if the error continues to exist.
Â
When booting from the original HDD there is no problem with Dolby Advanced Audio v2, the application just works fine. Whenever booting from SSD the error message comes up.
Â
I know that this is a known issue and I've read all the information that is out there on the internet. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling from the DRIVERS folder on C: multiple times, installed everything in different orders and tried almost every combination of using the SETUP in AUDIO, the SETUP in DOLBY, the UIUa64 and so on. I can't install Dolby Advanced Audio v2 on the new SSD properly. The installation finishes and Dolby Advanced Audio v2 is shown in the list of installed programs, but immediately after finishing the installation the error message also occurs.
Â
(I exactly followed the reported solutions for other systems, but none of them worked for me. In which order I have to run the driver setup(s) for my E540 if you think this is a possible error source.) I really do not know what could cause the error message while the (seemingly) exact installation still works while booting from the original HDD?
(I am not referring to Dolby Digital Plus but Advanced Audio v2! The Dolby Digital Plus user interface is accessible on SSD. The sound quality varies tremendously between the two Windows installations on HDD and SSD and the loss of sound quality is unacceptable for me.)

I have a Ideapad z510.
How I can update the BIOS so I can be able to access advanced options such as memory config, enabling turbo boost, overlocking, changing the boot order (HDD, CDROM, USB, etc)
Â
Currently the BIOS is a very simple and doens't give me advanced options and information.
