Modded file for x-fi installer cd for hp and other oem cards

Reggie · Feb 17, 2006, 12:12 PM

Couldnt find any info on this ,so i spent some time figuring this out myself.
HP OEM cards will not install with the retail x-fi cd so here is a modded file with extra device id's that makes it work,you may find other oem cards that wouldnt work before will work as there where 4 extra device id's i found in the web update driver to make this possible.
You need to obtain the x-fi installer cd and then grab this file ,instructions are included http://homepage.ntlworld.com/chris_f...tall%20mod.zip

jiiteepee · May 10, 2006, 10:41 PM

It seems to be working as expected (one happy OEM user more) ...

ivan__jedi · May 19, 2006, 12:44 AM

i have a hp oem xtreme music as well

the official drivers seems works fine

except I can't use the microphone jack port at all

no signal detected when a microphone is plugged.

the other problem is unless i untick the 'automatically mute speakers' option, the speakers are always mute

tried your modded driver but not working

any solution???

thanks

Which microphone port do you mean (the FlexiJack connector found on back of the card or the one found on PC case front)?

ivan__jedi · May 19, 2006, 10:59 AM

I mean Flexijack

sorry didn't make it clear

hi there
I can confirm even with the proper hp driver that the flexijack doesnt work as a mic port ,only line in or digital out

The mute problem i can also confirm , it does this if you use the creative web update driver as well , only the hp driver seems to stop this .

I didnt recieve the software cd so brought one but cannot install it says it cannot find a supported product and exits, i managed to get some apps working throught extracting the files but some still do not work any help would be appreciated

pezza160488 · Sep 5, 2006, 08:13 PM

Hi i brought a oem version of the x-fi extreme music off ebay but the software cd was not included so i brought a retail cd. when installing i get the error that no supported producted can be found and exits. I have managed to get a few apps working through extracting the files but most still do not work, i do not no which oem version i have as some people say that they have the dell or hp one. i cannot find anywhere that says which one it is. any help would be appreciated

jonnytheroth · Oct 16, 2006, 05:28 PM

Don't suppose you've solved that have you?

Bought same OEM card from same seller, havn't got any of the applications working and its making me mad!!!

Serial: MASB047550004564F

any help? is this different from the hp OEM?

I have tried to use the mod but didnt work!!

jonnytheroth · Oct 16, 2006, 05:49 PM

Just to clarify, in the instructions it says you have to create a new CD with the mod inbedded in it, is this necessary? As i've tried it with a downloaded version of the CD and tried to run it with the mods from harddisk but to no avail!

pezza160488 · Oct 16, 2006, 08:11 PM

i contacted paulian sales n sent me a cd with the software on and install fine, if u go on google n type in paulian sales u can get a phone sumber 4 him. on alibaba or sumin its called i think hope this helps

classic_leon · Oct 16, 2006, 09:05 PM

Well done.

jonnytheroth · Oct 17, 2006, 12:50 AM

thanks, i'll try to get that, otherwise I guess i'll have to try and mod somehow

mirage · Jan 13, 2007, 10:26 AM

I just had to register to say thank you very much for the Mod works great.
I also purchased from ebay Paullina sales OEM CARD
Downloaded the complete ICO applied the mod, burnt a new cd and Bingo
Don’t forget to enter the entertainment mode and untick mute headphones
All working thanks again…..

ScOrPiOn37 · Jan 15, 2007, 04:08 AM

ALLO!, wow some people who have done exactly as me, I also purchased from Paulina Sales, and I think I have a duffer. I got the driver CD and Installed the card but no sound. I tried to You-Pax drivers and then I tried this moded install ISO with no luck. And still no sound, any one else had this problem. I am trying to contact him to send it back and get an exchange. Or does anyone have the solution to this dilema of no sound, Disabled on board. Updated bios. Tried every suggestion I could find on forums. It all installs ok and tried re-formating. But no sound.

ScOrPiOn37 · Jan 15, 2007, 05:55 AM

Ok I got it, it wasnt a diff OEM. The problem lied in that I needed to install it using this moded ISO and then in the Creative volume pannel disable in speaker and headphone Automaticaly enable headphone setting, and Automaticaly mute speakers

And wala I have beautifull sound coming from my X-Fi after 2 weeks of trying.

schumi@badesha.net · Jan 20, 2007, 06:34 PM

Does anybody know where i can download the full cd from? i bought the card from pauliansales too

Guyz i downloaded this mod file as well as the CD. But in the above mentioned audio\setup\ folder of the CD the files present in this mod file were not present to replace.. Am i missing something here

Reggie · Apr 28, 2007, 12:21 AM

Could well be a different setup cd , maybe there are newer versions available now

Im glad some of you have found the mod to work and has been usefull

Grimmyn · May 20, 2007, 12:46 AM

Hi,

Have a HP 4890.se that was delivered with Vista and a Creative X-Fi SB0670.

Well I want my WinXP problem is that the drivers don't work.
Followed the instruction with the ISO and the modification with no luck.
I checked the HP Vista driver support.cab and saw the following text.

[Hardware.Map10]
ID = 05000020, 05000021, 05000022, 05000023, 05000024, 05000025, 05000026, 05000027, 05000028, 05000029, 0500002B, 05100003

Is this the only trigger for the driver to recognize the SB card?
Tried to update the .cab file but no luck. Got error.
I unpacked with winrar but how to create a .cab that the installer will except?

Please help.

Crooster · Jun 17, 2007, 04:47 PM

Ok

I got the X-FI cd and the mod. Added the support folder to Audio/setup(as stated in the readme). Still get the no hardware found which support this driver, yadayda. The readme says that agree to overwrite when prompted but i get no owerwrite question.

Do i place the mod wrong in some way?

Crooster · Jun 17, 2007, 05:57 PM

Are you supposed to place the "support" in the audio/setup folder unrared?

EDIT:

Problem solved

Eyuo · Jun 20, 2007, 12:51 AM

Here is something for Grimmyn. I also have an hp d4890.se and none of the solutions here worked for me. But now I finally found something that worked. The solution requires a recovery partition for the original Vista installation that came with the Computer. This is how I solved it: 1 Download the X-Fi original CD image and burn to CD. 2 Copy CD to harddrive to e.g. C:\CD\. 3 Replace the C:\CD\Audio\Drivers with :\hp\Drv\APP24712\offline_driver\Audio\Drivers 4 Copy :\hp\Drv\APP24712\offline_driver\Audio\Setup\CTOem .cfg to C:\CD\Audio\Setup 5 Run C:\CD\Setup.exe Good luck

Interesting "workaround" good job. Unfortunately for me i removed Crap-Vista before i made the recovery discs for my d4896.se. I have got my card to work though(probably not with the effects there, but what the hell). I used:

http://h20000.www2.hp.com/bizsupport...reg_R1002_USEN

And used the drivers(.inf file etc) by manually adding them in the device manager.

Hello ,Nice work Reggie ...

But i need alittle help ...

I've downloaded the new X-Fi Vista Cd from , http://files.filefront.com/SBXF+SIVI.../fileinfo.html

and i was trying (not very well) to add in OEM XtremeMusic hardware id to it ..

does anyone know what the oem XtreamMusic hardware id is ?

if you open the alchemy package, (ALXF_WEB1_LB_1_00_4.exe) , this this the list of hardware id's it will install to ...

[Hardware.Map10]
ID = 05000025, 05000027, 05000029, 05000022, 0500002F, 05000026, 05000028, 05600006, 05000020, 05000023, 05000031, 0500002C, 05000021

and the OEM xtremeMusic isn't one of those ...

Can anyone help ???
