Solve : Microphone Mute and Boost Stays Unchecked?

1.	Solve : Microphone Mute and Boost Stays Unchecked?
Answer» Windows XP Pro SP 3 MSI KT4 Ultra (MS-6590) ATI Radeon 9600 XT Creative Sound Blaster Audigy Gamer WDC WD800JB-00CRA1 AMD Athlon XP 1350MHz (6.75 x 200) 1500+ 2gig ram I recently reformatted and downloaded my sound drivers, Creative Sound Blaster Audigy. They appear to be updated since I last installed. I've come across two problems with it THOUGH and I'm not sure if it's the new drivers fault or something on my end. When I OPEN Volume Control the microphone appears to be unmuted but I can't hear myself so that's fine, except if I need to test my mic volume I can't do it this way anymore. The second problem is when I click Advanced and GO to the Microphone +20dB Boost option. As soon as I close the settings it resets and does not stay checked. Same with the Microphone Mute. It does not stay checked also. Not sure what I can do. I can't seem to find any old drivers either. Any help?Have you tried reinstalling the drivers? Quote from: Carbon Dudeoxide on July 24, 2008, 04:39:56 PM Have you tried reinstalling the drivers? of courseNot sure but have you checked in Control Panel. I think there should have been a program installed with your sound card. Perhaps the settings there conflict with the ones you are trying to change.Creative Audio Console. It does nothing. I can change the EAX so it sounds like I'm in a concert hall.. and a couple tabs about digital audio that has nothing to do with anything. I wish I could intercept your responses quicker cause it feels like we're going nowhere here with the redundant questions, but I understand you have no idea what I've tried. REVERT back to the previous drivers... How old is this card ? ? It may be time for a new one...I can't find previous drivers. I built this computer in '02 I believe. I'm poor and can't afford to upgrade anything atm.OK i'll bite on this one... What is the EXACT model # of the card and we'll help track down the correct drivers... BTW a new decent sound card can be had for about 40 Bucks...For under $23, here's an option: HTTP://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16829128003
