Had this problem with 2 different mobos and 2 of the above sound cards (replaced the card because I thought it was faulty at first).
Anyway, each time, at the start of the windows installation, I get a nice BSOD telling me that the motherboard is not fully ACPI compliant. This problem only occurs when I have the sound card installed. My system specs are below.
I finally overcame the problem by disabling the ACPI in BIOS, but being a curious type, would like to know if any of you guys had an idea why this problem was occuring.
Thx in advance,
