Can't get 5.1 on vista!

[dave2k2005]

Hey guys,
I installed Vista and almost all is well...
I installed the AC97 vista beta sound drivers from the realtek site. I have the icon in the bottom etc. but when I click the icon, it says they arent vista drivers, and I only have two options, speaker config and general. I have Medusa 5.1's, so I want my surround sound, but when I change the speaker config to 4 or 6, it always reverts back to 2CH. How do I change this, because I love Vista, and I dont want to lose it over not having 5.1

well i think it's a problem with your beta drivers and not vista itself. i'm using beta audigy drivers and have the option for 5.1 sound in my options......

Thank you very much, my good sir! I went to the same control panel that you show in your ss(I never knew about it before) and I set it to 5.1 through there! Thank you very much.
