Pretty URLs Not Working

I have my forum installed inside a WordPress install and it's working perfectly except for the SEO-friendly URLs, pretty URLs or whatever they're called. Whenever I turn them on, it loads on the WordPress site and gives me 404 errors. When I turn them off and leave it /index.php?... it works fine.

WordPress: www.aquaticforums.net
Xenforo: www.aquaticforums.net/forums

Is this a downside of using both WordPress and Xenforo in the same parent folder on my server?
 
It should be using the XenForo .htaccess. There's a .htaccess in the folder WordPress is in and there's another one in /forums too. They're on different databases too.

I'm not sure what I have in my .htaccess file as I've never looked at one in my life. I just know that it's there.

#RewriteBase /xenforo

#This line may be needed to enable WebDAV editing with PHP as a CGI.
#RewriteRule .* - [E=HTTP_AUTHORIZATION:%{HTTP:Authorization}]

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -f [OR]

RewriteRule ^.*$ - [NC,L]
RewriteRule ^(data/|js/|styles/|install/|favicon\.ico|crossdomain\.xml|robots\.txt) - [NC,L]
RewriteRule ^.*$ index.php [NC,L]
</IfModule>

#RewriteBase /xenforo

I should have paid more attention... It works now. Thanks for your help!
