Hi forum running an optical cable from max formula 3 creative sound card,

I have sound but no option to test or tell if Im getting 5.1.

Any ideas,

Just found out I will only get stereo so will need to connect the audio cables,
Cheers

Just connected the 3 colored connectors and was only getting left and right audio when
using windows speakers setup so uninstalled audio drivers and reinstalled now I test the speakers and only get center speaker and woofer


What the hell all i want is the 5 speakers to make a noise
 
Make sure you install the full audio suite and not jsut the driver. Open up the creative audio console and make sure you have 5.1 selected. I don't bother using optical with my Z5400. the 3 3.5 jacks (with the speakers set to Direct - 6 Ch Direct) sounds just as good as optical IMO.
