i installed new year package full (with 3.89 dr.)->startet setup 3.99->chose uninstall 3.89->reboot->install 3.99

it didn't work without installing 3.89 first, why?

In relation to JohnMcClane's quote above, does that mean you should not delete the new year package before installing 3.89? In his case maybe he did not need to delete them in the first place.

Shaga · Apr 19, 2005, 04:05 PM

I installed 3.99 first, then new year pack without driver and once creative-style installer popped during this install -> I installed it immediatly when it spawned.

Works wonders with music/games. I haven't yet tried DVDs.

BUGREPORT
I still see some letters with japanese fonts in creative HQ, and one shortcut game to my desktop during the end-part of installation with no icon nor software where it links to.

can't install the 4.00 on the audigy 2 value, anyone else have any luck?

krvolok · Apr 26, 2005, 09:59 AM

I have a question about the EAX console... How can I enable it?

Otherwise these drivers kick ass - they work great on my Audigy.

peanutbutter · Apr 26, 2005, 12:52 PM

Thanks RCOrdorica for hosting these. Just d/l them at super fast speed :-) and gonna try them tonight. Upgrading from 3.89.

And big thanks to YouP and classic leon !!

thomasabarnes · Apr 26, 2005, 06:50 PM

Tried the new drivers with music. Sounds really good. Dont need to use the Newyear v1.2 drivers anymore to get that loudness! Good job YouP, classic leon, and the whole Team.

Was a pain in the butt trying to install the New Year 2005 package again, though. Appears that choosing the installation option without drivers doesnt work (the Creative splash screen and the new window with the black guy on it never pops up). Had to use the installation option that includes the drivers, but when the Black guy and the Creative software windows came up, I chose not to install windows drivers in a custom installation. It installed OK, then. Then, I restarted after installing the updates, and installed the new YouP-PAX ZS v4.00 drivers. Works great with music playback!

Been on the run, but will try them with games a music production later.

Again thanks, upon a successful install this software and new drivers are really good!

Shaga · Apr 26, 2005, 07:08 PM

Does new year package work with Windows XP64 when using creative beta drivers? Anyone have an idea?

vibration · Apr 27, 2005, 03:54 PM

Hello everybody , i'm newbie,

This is my situation : I have just bought an Audigy 2 value (retail version) and I want to convert it in Audigy 4 quality.

My question is simple : What must I do step by step ?

This what I have for drivers : - PAX ZS 4.00

- Original Creative audigy 2 driver

-Original Creative audigy 2 ZS driver

- Original Creative audigy 2 ZS platinum driver + software

So if I understand correctly , I must install the New Year Package first and after the PAX 4.00 ?

Is it correct or not 'cause the thread has lot of information and there are too much different patch !!!...
It's hard for me , my english is bad !...

During installation, there is a confirmation window, asking if you want to install non whql drivers, if you don't see this window press Alt+Tab to bring it to front.

To add to what JohnMcClane said, be aware that it may take a while for the v4.00 drivers to install. I had to wait about 5-7 minutes for the drivers to install. It may take a long time, but wait. I had to wait a long time, but it did finish installing.

Tappy · Apr 28, 2005, 11:27 PM

thomasabarnes,
Just wondering if you tried any music production with these drivers yet?

Fine that is as for quality. I just don't have any creative applications and so not any surround mixer/CMSS/bass rediction/etc..

I think I'll try to mix NEW YEAR PACKAGE into this soup.

classic_leon · Apr 29, 2005, 04:06 PM

Good news, A new version of YouP package and drivers have been modding. This set of drivers and software are being modded by using 100% Audigy4 origianl installation CD! Special thanks, UP and toby_as.

humeyboy · Apr 29, 2005, 04:43 PM

Sweet, the 4.0 driver is nice, so your saying we again have a brand new pax package of apps /driver, if so i wait on the fast server or torrent and seed after i grab them.

classic_leon · Apr 29, 2005, 05:44 PM

Thank you for support, humeyboy.

Doesn't work with sblive 24bit nor sb audigy2 value, because they doesn't have emu-chip.

Not yet tried music production with these new v4.00 drivers, but games work OK, yet I still get some occasional squeal of death freezes when playing games. This is no wonder to me as I get these squeal of death freezes with Creative Labs official drivers, and the kX Project audio driver. I read somewhere that this squel of death freeze problem was fixed in one of the newer official Creative drivers, but I used that driver back then and I still had the problem. I'm thinking this may be a system specific thing. It's not too often that it happens, though.

I'm waiting for the new software and drivers based on the Audigy 4 apps and drivers. These drivers work well for music production. I remember from using them with one of the previous YouP PAX driver releases. But for music production, the kX drivers work best in my experience.

ViewAskew · Apr 30, 2005, 05:37 PM

Hey guys im having trouble installing. I only have one HDD and one Parition on it, and the name of the drive is D:, not C for some strange reason. Now when i try to install these drivers i get the ' cannot create directory error ' is there a way to install everything to a differnt path name? Because it keeps trying to install it too C:|newyearpackage even thoughi dont have a C: Labeled Drive.

humeyboy · Apr 30, 2005, 08:53 PM

I have a SATA hdd and if i forget to unplug my usb2.0 floppy/card reader, it stealls the C drive for one of the card readers (it appears as 1 floppy drive with normal connection to mobo and 2 harddrives).

Once this happens you cannot change the main Logical drivers letter.
