I was tryin to get by with using the soundcard built in on my board, its a shuttle MN31L board, 1 line out.. 1 line in which can be the rear out.. well I connected the amp etc just as ppgt94 had shown using the 5.1 setup without the center and the sub. I'm using Mediacar as my front end and when I play music the rear speakers dont seem to be working.. I load up windows media player and everything works and it sounds aweesome.. any suggesions on how to resolve this?

Is Mediacar's balance set to 0% left/right?

the balance is correct.. sound shifts from Left to right as I move the slider.. and its right in th emiddle so both my left and right work..

Hmm, with my audigy 2 nx it works perfect...

It probably is winamp that's not outputting well, don't know how to fix that. Maybe go into winamp settings directly?

The Creative Extigy would work fine too right? Anyones used an Extigy soundcard?

There's a plugin for Winamp to do 5.1 sound.

yeah some soundcards will only output to the front left and right unless something specifically tells them to, i use and extigy and in order to get the rears to work i need the winamp 5.1 plugin

however on my audigy the sound is automatically upmixed from 2 channels to 4 channels
