Hello @ all,
I have a strange problem that I can not figure out and hoping you all can
help me out. The main problem is playing music or watching a DVD on windows
media player or Nero Showtime I only get sound out of my left and right
speakers only. I am using the intergrated creative sound blaster live 24 bit
on my MSI K8N Ne04/SLI motherboard. I have gone to EVERY soud device
properties amd made sure that 5.1 speakers are selected. . I also did a sound
test and I get static out of all speakers. So I know they are hooked up
right. Also when I am playing Half Life 2 or Doom3 I get the surround sound
working. What gives? Is there a small detail that I over looked?
