Soundblaster dont work anymore after switch PCI-E Slot
Hi guys,
i have a problem. I switched my Soundblaster X-FI Titanium from its PCI-E 3.0 1x slot to the last PCI-E Slot on my Motherboard, which is a PCI-E 2.0 16x (which can according to literature operate in X1 or X4 Mode) Slot on the ASUS Z87 Pro.
The Lowest Slot (before it was in the 2nd from the bottom)
The reason I did that is because I want to add another Soundcard, which otherwise would be too close to my GEFORCE GTX 770 and would compromise the airflow.
So, as I said, I switched the Slots. Now I have problem making it work. Does it mean I have to reinstall the Creative Drivers again ? Because some of the Applications like the Konsole Starter and Creative Sound Panel etc. wouldn't recognize the card at the new PCI-E slot anymore.
I could still listen to music when I choose the Soundcard in my Media Player (now marked 2-Creative Soundblaster instead of formerly just Creative Soundblaster). Is that a general problem that was to be expected or is something else going wrong here ?
Any help is appreciated.
Thank you.
