I got an 'Active 5.1 surround sound system' for xmas and i wanna run it from my pc. At first it would only run through 2 of the speakers and the sub, so i have bought a 'creative' sound card port thingy. (which allows 7.1,6.1 and 5.1 sound systems)
I have fitted it in a spare PCI slot on my comp and installed the cd. Now sound isn't coming out of any speakers at all, and my computer isn't registering that any new hardware has been added.
I am pretty sure that i have put it in properly, but before i take the side off and try again i would like to know if it could be anything else.
Is it possible to unistall the original sound software which came with the computer?
I hope that some of this made sense
Thanks,
Joe
