[Creative Xfi Software]Help -(


Recommended Posts

Hello everyone,

The top says it all. I have lost the cd driver for my Creative Xfi Xtreme music. I downloaded the latest driver, Creative MediaSource, and MediaSource go. However, I Couldn't find where to download the mode changer (Like Entertainment, Games ..), and the THX console is no where to be found ;(.

These things used to be installed from the CD. Is there any way to get them from Creative website or anywhere else? Because I simply cannot find them, and I'm soo eager to change some settings for my sound system. Heck, I can't even give my subwoofer a bass boost ;(.

Thanks.

I won't be so sure about it. Creative driver updates usualy like to only UPDATE what you installed first from the CD, so... Let's hope full drivers do include the stuff on CD, but with Creative, things can get nasty.

I don't mind making a ISO from the CD and upload it somewhere, but got the for X-Fi Fatal1ty and I'm not sure the CD's are interchangeable. And he probably need mainly THIS application:

...witch is the first (or the first are the drivers itself and this is the last?) option when cusom - installing the drivers...

So, are this (X-Fi\Console Launcher\ConsoLC.exe) Creative console included in the drivers on Creative site? Or perhaps there is separate package, finally?

Can anyone confirm what Trodas said about the downloads only being updates? may seem a silly question but since going to Vista my install CD is useless so i have been using the X-fi drivers for vista from the creative driver site, they have been working well for me but I've been having some volume issues, where it drops and increases randomly.

might be worth trying to get hold of the Vista CD from somewhere.

Sorry for hijacking/ going off at a tangent. As you were chaps!!!! :)

guys sorry to bring up this old thread

how do i get the fancy version of the audio console with the bass redirection and 10 band eq and all that... all i have is a really simple version which lets me change the mode, the speaker selection, etc, and i can only adjust the 'bass' and 'treble' by double clicking the speaker icon in the taskbar...

i have xp x64, will the vista console launcher app work?

This is what I do. Download the installation cd from link above and unselect the drivers (Which I believe are at the top) but install the other software, This installs the graphic mixer apps and keeps te x64 driver installed.

I only joined this forum to say this as it took me 2 years to find a solution to this and don't want u having to do the same :D

I have tried to use the above link to get THX setup console to work, but the site won't download the package though it says it is on the site. Does anyone else have access to this package and a way to help a poor X-Fi user who wants to get bass management to work in Entertainment mode? The drivers from the original CD will not work and the newer drivers don't include the THX setup console that is needed to enable bass managment.

Thanks for your help!

First of all, what operating system are you using? If it is Windows Vista 64-bit, Windows Vista 32-bit, Windows XP Professional x64 Edition, Windows XP Service Pack 2, Windows Media Center Edition (MCE) 2005., download and install this file: CSL_PCAPP_LB_2_61_09.exe.

It can be downloaded from the following site: http://support.creative.com/Downloads/searchdownloads.aspx

When you get to the website, enter "CSL_PCAPP_LB_2_61_09.exe" in the search box. Then click on "Show details".

This should solve your problem.

    • My son is in Monaco right now, and I was checking his location in Apple's Find My app. I noticed that Prince Albert's Palace was blurred out on the satellite imagery in both Find My and Apple Maps. I checked Google Maps, and the palace wasn't blurred there. Does Apple have some kind of process where property owners can request that their homes be blurred on Apple Maps?
    • No, it was THAT ugly and I’d rather forget it completely existed.
