Archived from groups: microsoft.public.windowsxp.hardware (More info?)
I just reformated my hard drive and a very difficult reinstallation of
Windows XP Home. Now that I've got it up and running, I try to put my sound
card (Creative SoundBlaster Live 5.1) back in. It detects it, installs some
audio controller, I install the Creative drivers from the cd, from the
website, over and over, but no matter what, the Sound control panel insists
that there is No Audio Device.
Also, there is a yellow exclamation point by an a device that is unknown, or
simply listed as Media. It is for the Microsoft Kernel Wave Audio Mixer' and
I can't get it to install this.
I've tried switching Permissions to allow on the registry.
I've tried renaming the driver.cab file and replacing it from MULTIPLE
windows CDs.
I've taken out the card, cleaned it, put it in other slots - but I don't
think it has anything to do with the card.
I've found the kmixer.sys file and MANUALLY PUT IT IN THE DRIVER FOLDER IN
WIN/SYSTEM32!!! Nothing.
I've got the most recent files for my MOBO (Asus A7A266) and I updated my
BIOS right before I installed Windows.
This missing driver has to be the reason why it can't find my sound card
right? Keep in mind, I had this system running before I reformated (for a
completely unrelated problem) with all the same hardware and windows off the
same disk.
What is going on?
This is what my Sound devices looks like in the device manager:
ATI WDM Rage Theater Video
ATI WDM Specialized MVD Codec
Audio Codecs
Creative Game Port
Creative SB Live! Series (WDM)
Legacy Audio Drivers
Legacy Video Capture Drivers
Media Control Devices
! Unknown Device (this would be Kernel Wave Audio Mixer)
Video Codecs
i've seen this problem on about a billion message boards in one form or
another and i never see a good solution. someone help please!
thanks
