Hi all,

I just got the AW9D-MAX mobo for my new pc and have to say it works just great. However I have a problem with the riser audio card and was wondering if anyone here can help me.

I have the MegaWorks 550 that connects to the sound card with 3 jacks. The Sub/Woofer and Front jacks work flawlessly however when I try to connect the rear speakers jack from the software I get a meesage saying no output so no sound comes out of the rear speakers and can't really understand why it is telling me that. I have checked the settings and it is set to 6 channels (5.1) and have installed the latest drivers I have found on the abit uk website but still get the same error and even tried different jacks. The strange thing is that if I set it to 8 channels (7.1) instead of 6 they work!! I won't have any sound coming out that was supposed to come out of the side speaker in such a setup but they at least work. Any ideas how I can fix this and using a 6channel configuration? :confused:

Any help would me much appreciated.

Thanks in advance. :)


Edit: Never mind I found the solution from elsewhere after a lot of research. It seems the problem can be solved by plugging in the rear speaker into the side jack (black) as for some reason they are sensed that way by the riser card. hopes this helps anyone else that has a similar problem! ;)
