Hi all, I have been having a problem with my sound set up as of late. I had bought the Creative Audigy Platinum EX, and the Inspire 5300 speakers. For a month they all worked fine, in games, mp3's etc. Now the past week only the 2 back channel speakers work and the sub woofer. The other speakers I can hear the "hiss" from, but nothing. The sound quality is still good, but im missing out on the front channels and center for true 5.1 sound....
I have gone into the windows settings and made sure 5.1 is shown, as well as creative's utility. The speaker test will light up the speaker being tested. With that it is only "back left", "back right". The other speakers light up, but no sound.
I have uninstalled, reinstalled the drivers. Disconnected the speakers and rearranged their positions in the subwoofer. The only thing I have not done is literally rip the card out of the box and pop it back in.
Could it be as simple as that? or something else? Any ideas or has this happened to anyone else? Thank you kindly.
