Pentaborane Posted March 15, 2004 Share Posted March 15, 2004 I bougt a 5.1 speaker system by cyberacoustics. I know for a fact that I have a 5.1 compatible sound card. I have all the latest drivers. The front 3 speakers work along with the sub, however the back 2 speakers do not. Does anyone know if there is something i need to go into on my computer to allow the settings or anything... Any help would be greatly appreciated. thanx! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bangbang023 Veteran Posted March 15, 2004 Veteran Share Posted March 15, 2004 what are you using to test them? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gam_EZ Posted March 15, 2004 Share Posted March 15, 2004 Yeah I had that problem too, I have a Creative Labs Live 5.1 sound card, and even though the plugs are color coded on the card, one of the plugs goes into a slot that is not the matching color. Your going to have to mess around with it a little bit to figure it out because I dont have the computer around me now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
N_B Posted March 15, 2004 Share Posted March 15, 2004 Control Panel -> Sounds & Audio Devices -> Advanced (under Speaker Settings) -> Select 5.1 Surround Sound, in case you haven't done it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
