*update, sorry folks, after hours of looking around, found CMSS upmixing in the EAX controll panel, problem fixed*
Hi,
I have a Creative SB Live! 24-bit soundcard, and althoug the speaker test works fine, all channels working, and it also works in games (hl2) I cant get surround sound to work anywhere else, eg music playing in winamp/windows media player, only the front speakers work.
Any ideas on how to get 5.1 with music? (or films even, not working with that)
I used the drivers supplied with the card, set to 5.1 mode both during install and in the windows sound manager thing. Also tried some drivers from driverguide, which forced me to go into safemode to get rid of them.
Thanks
