Each box will list the drivers of the devices that are installed on your computer. There will be dropdown boxes under 'sound playback' 'sound recording' and 'midi music'. XP: Open Audio Properties (right click on the volume icon on the taskbar and click 'adjust audio properties', or go through the Control Panel/Sounds & Audio Devices Properties). Normally one switches between the external card and the internal audio by selecting which one is to be the default device in the dropdown box in the Audio Properties. I have a Creative Soundblaster external card and to adjust it I use the mixer app that is loaded with the card's drivers. The X-Fi Extreme might well have a similar feature, but because it must use the Sigmatel system it would seem to me better to just use the Sigmatel directly when you need to use the internal speakers.Īlso is there any way to adjust or control the volume of it? That trick only worked if the Sigmatel system was fully functional.
#Sound blaster x fi xtreme audio manual Patch#
You could get a software patch from Creative that would let the audio from it be routed back to the Sigmatel chip on the motherboard, and from there to the speakers.

An exception I do know about was Creative's other slot card, the Audigy2 ZS card for PC slots. I don't know specifically about the X-Fi Extreme, but with most external sound cards you cannot play through the computer's speakers because they are a separate audio system from the one built onto the the motherboard. Should I get sound out of my speakers when using it?
