Was working fine when I set-up my new rig. The sound card was purcahsed back in June and installed within my new set-up yesterday, I installed Vista 64 bit with the latest drivers from creative and played bioshock on 7.1 no problems at all.
Booted my machine up today, went through the bios fine when it started to load windows the machine crashed there was also a loud static noise that continued until I reset my computer.
It then managed to boot into windows, but certain programmes could not load and I got lots of error messages. I took the sound card out and everything worked fine with the onboard 7.1 audio.
I unistalled the drivers, and plugged the soundcard back in and it did the same thing over and over, can't boot into windows with it plugged into the mobo?
Is it busted guys?, I can get a new if it is, but wanted to check that is it not a common fault / problem that i can fix?
Sound Card = Creative X-Fi Gamer
mobo = Ibit Pro
Any suggestions welcome!
