ive just installed a Creative Sound Blaster X-Fi Titanium - Fatal1ty Professional Series 7.1 Sound Card with drivers and control console and when i try to open up the control console i get this error come up.

There are no supported audio device avaliable.you need to close the application.click ok to close the application.

i go into my sound devices and the card can not be seen only ATI from my G/card,i get sound from the card and I/O unit but im thinking that its picking up the ATI sound,ive tried reinstalling and in different pci-e slots but same happens,is it a bad install or is there something wrong with the card?
The symbol on the side of the card lights up but nothing lights up on the I/O panel.
I know its not the pci-e slots as ive put back my Asus soundcard and it works fine.
Any ideas out there
many thanks and Happy New Year.

Sorry I can't help more, but yeah I think this is just a simple driver screwup. When I had my X-Fi card I remember running into something similar. If you do detect new hardware in device manager does it find any unknown devices?

At the time i tried to install the creative card ,in device manager all it says is ATI high definition audio device,
now i also see Asus Xonar D2X Audio device becuase i have reinstalled that card.
for some reason it will not detect the creative card.
My motherboard is Asus rampage 2 extreme and the only time i can think i got that error is when i removed my SupremeFX X-Fi sound card that comes supplied with it and i tried to open up the creative console.
i have now installed the SupremeFX X-Fi sound card and creative console works.

Did you install the drivers and software from the disc supplied or just grab the new drivers straight from the creative site?

I always recommend to new X-FI users to install the drivers from the CD, then use the installed Creative updater to bring all of the software up to date.
It also installs software that does not get installed via the downloaded drivers, such as the Creative Volume Panel.

i didnt get any disks with it so downloaded from the creative site and win7 64 and xp32
ive also tried this on 2 operating systems and the same result ,they cant find the soundcard.
