Rear speakers not providing sound
Hi
I have recently bought logitech x-530 5.1 speakers. With all the wires at place, I still don't get sound from either the front center speaker or the left and right rear speakers.
I did change the option in the "sound and audio devices" section on the control panel to 5.1 suround, and also downloaded Vinyl Audio Codec, but didn't figure out what to do next.
My audio card is VIA Vinyl AC'97 (Wave).
How do I solve this?

Have you installed the sound driver for your sound card?
Re: Rear speakers not providing sound
To turn on surround sound:
1) Open the volume control by double clicking the speaker icon in the top panel.
2) Click on edit preferences.
3) Put check marks in both the surround and channel mode boxes.
(you will have to scroll down the list to find channel mode)
4) Make sure the slider for surround is turned up and not muted.
5) On the Options tab, select 4ch, 6ch or 8ch as appropriate.
