KX Driver installed and then no sound

onFriday · Jun 29, 2004, 07:52 PM

Hi,
At first sorry for my bad english.
I have Creative SB Live 5.1. My OS is Windows 2000 Prof SP3
I installed the KX Driver everything was perfectly no failures etc...
But then after a reboot i play a song in Winamp i can hear nothing or in Windows Media Player.
I installed everything correct and right but i can hear nothing. Why?
Please help me!

Is your speaker plugged into the REAR OUT (black)? That is the default for KX-Your English is perfectly understandable to me and I have been practicing for almost 52 years.

as doug said, OR you can open the kX mixer and click on the "swap front rear" button (image of two speakers with 2 arrows)

Yes i have it in the rear out.
But i have only 2 Speakers i dont have surround system.
After i installed the KX Driver and after the reboot there comes a error message it says
that the system control parameters are defined and it recommend to back off settings.
But if i make it then comes the error message again, why?

try using Driver Cleaner for both creative AND kX drivers, and then reinstall kX

have you set the hardware accerlation to full and the speaker to 5.1 (w2k) or 7.1 (xp) you´ll find it under systemsettings and then sounds and audiosettings

The Problem is unfixed.
The Problem was that I have in the BIOS the "OnBoard Midi Port" disabled.
After enabling, the KX Driver acted Perfectly!

interesting issue… not sure how an onboard device could block kX…
