Creative software causing weird glitches?

I have an Asus Xonar DX card which I'm using as my main soundcard right now and think it's great, but I wanted to use my X-Fi Platinum for its input bracket (partly because my case's FP connectors are a little staticky).

Anyway, I hooked up both the Creative Platinum and older X-Fi Gamer and both exhibited a weird problem that they'd cause my dvd drive to eject and neither of my dvd drive's to read movies right. The only solution seemed to be totally removing any creative software, as it still had that problem with no cards in it using the onboard audio. After removing it, things seem to be back to normal with onboard and the Asus.

I'm trying to figure out if this is common for X-Fi cards, if my PCI controller's gone bad (Xonar is pci-e), or if it's a PSU issue (which would be weird as it's a 700W PSU).

Any ideas?
