Yeah.. The Creative autoupdate I am pretty sure no longer works. It was really janky even when it was working.
creative auto update still works in xp and vista and 7
i manage to install the drivers (wdm drivers only) from disc from the driver folder in the audio folder, finding a way to install the rest because there is an error
Even with the Vista CD? Is it just saying it can't find the card or what?
Edit: What is the part number on that card?
I'm seeing some say SB0460 and another SB0466 (mistype)?
i will look when i get home and post on here after work
The main setup doesnt detect the card but if go drivers folder in the audio folder and install from there, its sees the card and installs the wdm drivers and i get sound, just cant install the "bloatware" along with drivers but creative media source installs from main setup program along with creative autoupdate
Ok.. so it was Creative doing their normal... use the same model number for different cards thing. Either the firmware is different or the firmware detects the slight differences in configuration and changes the ID that the setup program detects.
Pretty sure this is the same as your card - Fatyal1ty FPS SB0460
And the XtremeMusic SB0460
The only differences I see are that the Fatal1ty FPS has the LED block and there is no jumper on the EXT header.
What happens if you unhook the front panel and install the jumper where it is on the XtremeMusic card? Does setup see it then?
I really should just install the Fatal1ty card I have in a test setup but since you already have one installed... and I don't have the front panel.
If not, go ahead and try to install the one included on the XP CD in Vista.
It is in this folder on the CD:
CTShared\LaunchEx\PIDInst\
Not sure if the Vista CD will try to install the newer version or not when you run the setup from the Vista CD.
You may try copying the whole CD to a folder and then replace that whole folder with the one from the XP CD.
If neither of those work.. I'll see if I can hack together the XP and Vista one to make a Vista one that will detect the Fatal1ty FPS.
