I recently picked up an E-MU 0404 PCI for music listening through my Audioengine a5's and my various headphones + amp, but for the life of me I cannot get my X-Fi to play nice with the card (or possibly the other way around). Both cards work flawlessly when installed stand alone without the other in the system, but when I install both at the same time I get a BSOD at boot after installing drivers (I can remedy this by going into Safe Mode and uninstalling the X-Fi drivers).
I install the E-MU drivers first (won't work the other way around) and then install the X-Fi drivers, all seems well before the first reboot with both card drivers installed. After the first restart I get the BSOD with a random Stop message (no mention of a driver issue). My system is rock solid stable and I can reproduce the BSOD on key after installing drivers (so I know a conflict with the two cards is causing the issue).
I use Vista 64 and I have tried the beta 0000 and most recent 0004 drivers for my X-Fi, I cannot seem to find any other drivers other than the ones currently up on E-MU's site.
I have also found this blurb in the readme from E-MU - "This software is incompatible with the Creative X-Fi family of products. The X-Fi device must be removed from the system before installing the HotFix." I know however that many people have used a X-Fi and E-MU card in the same system, if anyone has experience with these two cards in Vista 64-bit, or Vista 32-bit, please help!
