So I put my card on the first PCI slot (PCI1) and got everything working. :/

Kind of sucks because it's right next to my GTX... limiting airflow and more or likely will heat up much quicker.
Are you using Vista or XP? I ask because I had similar problems with the X-Fi on my DFI board with XP64 on the PCI slots ... wondering if it was a software prob with Creative, not the board ...

I am ordering this Gigabyte board to run my QX9770 with (water-cooled) and I am hoping for some nice results ...
