Help with Audigy 2 zs!

[rabidbunny]

Ok, don't ask me why, but I tried to update my audigy 2 zs drivers. I went into control panel and uninstalled them that way. However, now that I have done that and installed a newer driver, the volume control won't work at all. I also can't configure my 5.1 speakers anymore either through the icon in the bottom of the screen. No part of that volume control works.

I have been looking for the creative audio source program on the internet, but it seems to only exist on the cd that came with the card. I do not have access to the cd since it is at home and I am away at school.

Here's what I have tried:
-system restore to when it actually worked fine
-uninstalling and reinstalling the sound card under device manager
-installing three different revisions of the audigy 2 zs drivers

NONE of them has solved my problem.
I think that what I need to do is uninstall all the creative programs and reinstall bit by bit.
Can anyone help me?

Doesn't Creative have a 'run system scan' utility that lists all the updates/drivers etc. you need? Autoscan?

I cant remember exactly how I did it, but theres a line of code that needs to be changed, even if you have the cd, once its deleted,, it wont get reloaded. I had to look it up and then get the right info, and rewrite it in I think the DLL files.

@ badge:
I don't really know. I did find something on their website that looks like it's supposed to scan your system, however it said it did not support vista (which I do no have!) and wouldn't scan my computer....

If I can't fix it right now, I can wait until I go home for christmas since I was planning on rebuilding my OS soon. I like to do that to clean up any junk.

Rabid you might email Creative support and be very specific. Maybe not 8).

Have someone at home mail you the CD.

Yeah, that's exactly what I was thinking... I might try emailing creative support. I haven't ever heard of good support from companies over email.

Thanks for everyone's help! I do appreciate it!
