Access Denied! - Driver installation

HoschY · Nov 16, 2009, 10:33 AM

Hello everyone

i got the USB Sound Blaster X-FI Surround 5.1. Runs smoothly on my Desktop PC with the PAX drivers. But i cant get it to work on my Notebook

Normal installation using the setup.exe starts and installs the software currect without any problems. But the drivers wont get installed. I always get "Access denied" (Zugriff Verweigert, im german

) if i try to install them manually ...

I already deinstalled and removed the drivers like 20 times (usin driver-sweeper) but it does not work either :/
My OS is Windows 7 x64

hope i get help around here, and dont blame me for my bad english, thanks

Did you run as admin mate? and try comp mode too. Did the normal usb ones work from creative offical set?

i'm admin everytime (the real administrator account)
the normal drivers do not work either... but i cant find any reason nor a solution

google refuses to help me, so i decided to ask for myself in a forum providing/supporting sound-drivers

i did nothing different than on my desktop machine. (wich works fine)

thanks for your answer, great job though
