So I've apparently been out of the loop a while. I have an old set of Cambridge Soundworks 5.1 speakers. They're made for a line in and rear in set of connections to the sound card. Green and Black in other words. My sound card has 3 x 3.5mm jacks: green, black and... orange? Apparently the orange is for the center and subwoofer.
So I didn't notice this until I got all the speakers set up. I found the green and black jacks, overlooked the orange one... and only the front left and right speakers work. The front center, rear pair and subwoofer do not, no matter what settings I try via the software (stereo, quadraphonic, 5.1, 7.1).
So, is there a solution to this or am I just SOL and need to buy new speakers?
