Maybe unplug all the amps from the sound card and just start with 1 buttkicker. Might make it a bit easier to track down the problem. When you open the playback devices does it register simvibe in the graph their when you click the speaker icons in simvibe?
I mean the graph that has green bars when a sound is played in the "playback devices" window. Like If you right click on your sound card and click test, that graph lights up. Should also when you click a speaker in the simvibe settings.
I just want to go over how this is wired in case I made a mistake. The speaker cable goes into the shaker, one in red and one in black, it goes into the amp one into the red and one in the black and then a rca cable one in the red and one in the white input and then plugs into one port on the sound card.
If its the amp is from the gamer2 it only has 1 input in the other is an output, but yes that sounds like its wired correct to me.
Only thing I can think of is to contact simvibe support. He should be able to get you all sorted out.
Are you sure your using extension mode with 1 hooked up and clicking the speaker for extension mode? Extension mode doesn't have a picture of a car, its just a list with the 3 options.
Okay this is my fualt for not answering the right questions. Yes extension mode and chassis mode is checked in the options. I have never used bass shakers before. I tried running a buttkicker alone and through onboard and I couldn't figure out how to make it work, maybe I need to start their.
yes all the drivers are installed and working, the sound window is all normal. I tried them in all the jacks, and tried a test on all modes, stero, quad,5.1, and 7.1 nothing. Their are no drivers conflicts, and my normal surround sound speakers and headphones work fine. sorry for the missunderstandingI thought your sound cards were working with audio already, anyway if its not then definitely start with getting the sound cards working.
Have you tried using different output jacks on the sound cards? i thought you said you were using the black (rear), you might want to try the green (front) or the other jacks.
What shows up on this menu for your cards? when they're activated they should say enabled.
You can also select your card and edit its properties here (quadraphonic, 5.1, and other stuff)
Oh the fun has just begun. Once you get them shaking, you got to get them shaking in tune, but that's a whole other topic. When you get it working though it will be well worth all the effort. Hell Im still learning and tweaking mine all the time and have had it almost a year now.
That would suck. Now I am scared to try.
For what it's worth, that's never happened to me.
Maybe backup wherever the profiles are kept before you launch it? Nothing has changed on my system since I played it last night
