soubd blaster audigy 2 value

Has anyone had success installing the drivers for the Sound Blaster Audigy2 value card.
I have: down loaded the driver from Sundblaster.com
tried to : run the install program.. and Unzip the file and do a manula install
but keep on getting the same thing : "Windows cannot load the device driver for this hardware. The driver may be corrupted or missing. (Code 39)"
ok thanks

Download the old beta drivers for build 5231 from creative website. Don't run the .exe! Extract it with WinRAR. Then from the device manager, install the driver by giving it the path to the drivers (where you extracted the .exe\Drivers\wdm) It worked fine for my Audigy 2 ZS

yes.
as I noted in post #3 of this thread, I have a Soundblaster Audigy 2 Value running on Vista x64 build 5384.
all audio has full functionality, including 7.1, EAX and CMSS/CMSS2. the audio is positional and every feature functions normally, and under the conrol of Audio Console.
please see this thread for precise instructions: http://tinyurl.com/mwduw
this is the only way I've gotten everything working completely (no pops, hisses, not limited to stereo sound, etc.). I can reproduce it over and over again, so it works.

Until Creative releases drivers for Beta 2, you need to install the XP (or x64) drivers. I had the same problem. Installed the x64 drivers...twice...and sound now works.
Note. You have to install the drivers twice. It will work however.

I have an Audigy OEM card and the Vista and X64 drivers didn't work for me! The XP 32 bit drivers did partially as I don't have surround sound but I do have sound!

try down loading the drivers again and makew sure they are the vista ones... and try to unzip to a folder then use the update driver mode and force the path and driver by passing the install ...(setup)

oppsie, just noticed that my date was out by one day.. but still having the problems installing this

this is the only way I've gotten everything working completely (no pops, hisses, not limited to stereo sound, etc.). I can reproduce it over and over again, so it works.

By using the "bcdedit -setnointegritychecks ON" in your instructions I got the "Blue screen of death!" I was able to turn this off by doing a "bcdedit -setnointegritychecks OFF." Don't know if I can reproduce this over and over again but I'm not going to try it again.

I used hawkeye's method, it worked like a charm! Seems on the creative boards that his solution is the only solution. The only reason it wouldn't work is if you don't follow his directions correctly, and they're not hard to follow. I hope it works out for you!
