I just got a 5.1 surround sound system, it's the creative t6100. I've tried hooking up to my laptop successfully, the only problem is that when I'm not using a 5.1 audio source (most of my music) only my front to speakers and bass works. Is there a way to enable the center and rear two speakers to add sound as well?
I've got a msi gt627, which technically has a 7.1 surround sound card. Also the 5.1 tests that I run with realtkhd audio manager work fine, I just want to be able to have my music blast at me from all directions. Also I have a lcd tv (w/ digital/1 headphone out), is there an easy way to hook up my tv and my computer to my speaker system without having to switch a lot of plugs?
