to my knowledge, 2 SB's are not supported in one machine... not supported meaning creative doesnt asure you it'll work, and they could really care less if it does or doesnt.

thus.. the drivers were never tested to support that config and it may be flakey.

try installing one... get it all working and all.. then install the second (physically) .. rather than just dropping them both in at the same time.

also, try putting them in various slots - sometimes this helps with multiple device issues.

I tried to do this also a while ago, and many people told me that there is a setting you might have in the system bios that you change to enable two soundcards. Some computers can handle two soundcards, and some cant. If I were you, I would return both, and get one 3d soundblaster live soundcard (or if both are 3d, return 1). You can hook all you equipment up to the 3d without a problem.

Sorry, I forgot you have two 3d's. Just return one 3d soundcard, and use one 3d soundcard.
