hello all, just fixing and re-installing a m8s pc. he has a x-fi xtreme music card and a asus an8-e mobo with latest bios.

everything installs fine, drivers etc.. but when i reboot its back to no device. when i click on audio console for x-fi it says no sound card detected.

any suggestions?
 
yep thats exactly what i did. used driver cleaner pro to clean it all up then installed

6.86_nforce_win2kxp_international_whql chipset drivers.
 
mines still on the blink. sometimes its not there when i boot and the only thing i can do is enable on board audio in the bios to bring it back
 
still really need help, if i re-install windows it works. but i have to re-install the drivers every boot.

if i installed nforce chip set drivers it wont recognize the x-fi ever. please help im gonna have to re-install windows again. this is the third time.
 
ok i took his 2 year old card back to a national pc shop and swapped it for a brand new x-fi gamer. bit cheeky i know.

still no joy, not even reconising the card.

here's what i've tried

-updated the bios
-downgraded the bios
-non creative drivers
-reservering pci slots
-fresh windows install
-nforce4 chipset drivers
-different pci slots


last thing left to try is get the original chipsegt drivers from the disk that came with the mobo. still need to get that off my mate, after that i'm giving up and he's gonna have to be stuck with on board sound.

if anyone has any suggestion, im willing to try it?
