I have a P5K mb and Logitech 5.1 speakers. I'm using the onboard sound on the mb. The speakers are connected according to the manual. When I test the speakers using the Realtek HD software that came with the mb all the speakers test fine. However when I play music with Winamp or WMP, the rear speakers have no sound. Any suggestions? Thanks Gary >> Stay informed about: Question regarding speaker hookup?

Have you checked to see if the onboard sound is configured to only 2
speakers? That could be the problem.

That could be the problem. > > I definitely have it set up properly in the software. > G. A DVD player application, is one way to get source to drive a 5.1 speaker system. (See posting by "BigJim".) A lot of audio is only going to be stereo. If you want 5.1 from stereo source, then the audio driver needs "virtualization" capability. My sound card has an "enable virtual 5.1 audio and reverberation" check box, and the purpose of that, is to convert 2 channels to 5.1 channels. That adds a bit of depth cueing, to the audio content. That would be a software feature, and the hardware in my sound card, doesn't know anything about virtual 5.1. It is a driver function, and requires CPU cycles to do the conversion and add the sound effect. I don't see an option here, that will convert 2 channel content to 5.1 speakers. But this manual for Realtek Hdaudio, doesn't show all the screens, so is incomplete. http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/fastFaqLiteDocument?lc=en&cc=za&dlc...&docnam Paul >> Stay informed about: Question regarding speaker hookup?

It is working correctly. Winamp and WMP are STEREO two channel sources, so they only output to the front speakers.. You would need a 5.1 channel SOURCE, such as a properly recorded video game, to hear the rear speakers. -- --DaveW "algae" <garyboyce.TakeThisOut@gmail.com> wrote in message news:cefd3585-3a15-4c90-b262-34b449cb408a@i7g2000prf.googlegroups.com... >I have a P5K mb and Logitech 5.1 speakers.

In the next window, click on the Enhancements tab, then scroll down and make sure the Speaker Fill box is checked. Click OK and you should be good to go with sound out of therear speakers as well. >> Stay informed about: Question regarding speaker hookup?
