Soundcard Driver - Audigy Soundblaster SE 24Bit - ERROR Hi
I have done a quick search and found a few topics on this, but none of them really covered what i was after.
Basically i have Win 7 Pro, x64.... All my other drivers installed lovely apart from my soundcard. If i use Windows 7 to update my soundcard drivers i can't get any Bass, although i can still hear sound.
I have downloaded, installed and uninstalled every driver thats on the web, including the ones from Creative but still no luck.
Could some one point me in the place where a driver WILL WORK. I have 5.1 surround sound (Although this wont effect the driver)
Many Thanks

Hi
That driver never installed. I ran a driver clean up before i installed, rebooted computer then it said it was a error.
I found that SB24_PCDRV_LB_1_04_0090.EXE, though i don't know where i found it actually installed. I can't get the Creative options up where it allows you for how much bass you want and what speaker has more output then another etc.
I'm downloading a update. I'll let you know how it goes soon. | My System Specs | | System Manufacturer/Model Number Home Grown OS Windows 7 Pro X64 CPU Intel i7, 930 2.8Ghz - O/c to 4Ghz @ 1.29v Motherboard ASUS Rampage II Gene Memory 3x2GB = 6GB Mushkin Redline 998805 Graphics Card Nvidia Geforce 8800GTX Sound Card Audigy Soundblaster 24 Bit Extreme Monitor(s) Displays Samsung SyncMaster 913N Screen Resolution 1280 x 1024 Keyboard QWERTY Mouse Micky PSU Thermaltake 850W PSU Case A butchered case with holes cut out for extra cooling lol Cooling CPU = Corsair H50 with 2x 120mm Noctua NF-S12B fans on rad Hard Drives 1x Western Digital 500GB, 16MB Crèche, 7,200RPM

Problem Sorted!!!
What i did was:
1) Went to device manager, went to Sound. I then right clicked on everthing to do with sound and clicked uninstall. I also ticked a box saying delete files and pressed yes
2) I went to Control Panel, went to Programs, then clicked on uninstall Programs. There i found one or 2 programs that were assocated to my sound so they were uninstalled.
3) I rebooted my system
4) I downloaded a Driver Sweeper (What Raghakr suggest above: Guru3D - Driver Sweeper)
5) Installed that and cleaned my drive. It deleted the left over registeries.
6) Restarted my pc as the program requested
7) I downloaded P17X_SupportPack_2_0 from the creative support forum ( http://www.online-shoping.cz/P17X_SupportPack_2_0.exe)
8) Installed
9) Followed on screen instructions, when prompted that a certian part of the programe hasn't been signed by Microsoft, i pressed Continue
10) Program installed and rebooted computer (again)
11) Fully working sound!!!!!! | My System Specs | | System Manufacturer/Model Number Home Grown OS Windows 7 Pro X64 CPU Intel i7, 930 2.8Ghz - O/c to 4Ghz @ 1.29v Motherboard ASUS Rampage II Gene Memory 3x2GB = 6GB Mushkin Redline 998805 Graphics Card Nvidia Geforce 8800GTX Sound Card Audigy Soundblaster 24 Bit Extreme Monitor(s) Displays Samsung SyncMaster 913N Screen Resolution 1280 x 1024 Keyboard QWERTY Mouse Micky PSU Thermaltake 850W PSU Case A butchered case with holes cut out for extra cooling lol Cooling CPU = Corsair H50 with 2x 120mm Noctua NF-S12B fans on rad Hard Drives 1x Western Digital 500GB, 16MB Crèche, 7,200RPM
