Default FS: Creative X-Fi Xtreme Music sound card

I bought this card from Creative (refurbished) but I can't get the card to work on my computer. Given that I have just put together a new computer, there may be something weird on my setup. I will sell this card for what I paid for it, $100. If the card doesn't work for you, I will refund your money and send it back to Creative. However, if it does work, you get a high end sound card for a good price (MB has it for $150 after tax). The card comes with the manual and install cd.

Send it back to creative, and get your refund dude. The OEM X-FI's are barely working for anyone out there, they're the number one returned product. The problem is if your mainboard has onboard sound there's an 80% chance that it's going to conflict.

Really? It does have onboard sound. Should I try installing it again with all onboard sound drivers removed?
