Here are my system specs since I know that is the first response I'm going to get:
EVGA nForce 750i SLI FTW
Intel Q9300 Quad Core - Stock
OCZ Reaper 4x2Gb @1066
Corsair vx550w
nVidia GTX 280
WD 320Gb HDD
Vista Business 64-bit
So I just bought the Sound Blaster X-Fi Titanium Fatal1ty Pro PCI-e card and the installation went flawlessly. Only thing is, I can't play ANY games (well, aside from World of Warcraft, but that isn't very hardware intensive) without the game freezing and the sound playing in a loop. I will occassionally get the IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL BSOD as well. I have also noticed that theGTX 280 and the X-Fi are using the same IRQ, but that shouldn't be problem with Vista.
I have the most recent and correct drivers for everything and my entire system was 100% stable before installing the Sound Card.
I really don't want to have to return it and go with another brand because I have always went with a Creative card and never had any issues up to this point.
Any and all suggestions would be greatly appreciated!
