    Help With new 5.1 Speaker System

    Testing it out on the old comp down the Jersey Shore before we bring it up north to it's new home on a Dell Dimension 8300.

    But I can't seem to get sound out of all the speakers no matter wich setting I try. Sometiems it's only the Rear, Sometimes it's the Front and rear, sometime only the front and center.

    I have an Audigy LS soundcard here, and I'm using 6 Speaker setting on Power DVD. Does Power DVD perhaps not support 5.1 speakers?

    Thanks

    How are you plugging the speakers in? is it all into one jack?

    Nope, it came with a three cord plug in. One plug for the center, one for the rear and one for the front.

    I once had a problem with speakers on a 5.1 system and it turned out to be the the volume control that spins has a balance for F and R speakers. Sometimes my thumb would spin the balance to the front or back. Once I spotted it I now make sure I dont knock the FR control and all is good.

    Maybe this is the way the song goes?

    Try a different one.
