Swize Posted January 6, 2007 Report Share Posted January 6, 2007 Go Start >Controle Panel> Sounds and audio devices> Under device volume click advanced> then click propties and if advanced controles is not ticked click it > Now under master volume there should be a button saying advanced click that and enable the line in as sub etc see if that made a diffrence. With your motherboard/soundcard you would problie have got some sort of drivers for the sound a program like nvmixer if you have an nforce bord and you wanna run a speaker wizzard or what ever through that.About all I can think of off the top of my head...

downhill_rob2@hotmail.com Posted January 6, 2007 Author Report Share Posted January 6, 2007 How is it connected up? what goes from where into what?all the speakers connect into the back of the sub, then the right front (with the little dial for turning up and down) connects to back of sub, and also back of pc.. it connects to back of sub like your monitor connects to back of pc... lolIts all colour co-ordinated, and they all in right ports...

ted Posted January 6, 2007 Report Share Posted January 6, 2007 Do the same as Swize suggested to get the 'sounds and audio devices' box up. Now under the 'Speaker settings' subtitle click the 'Advanced' button.Use the drop down menu to select 5.1 surround sound speakers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
