Hey guys,
I am proud that I finally ditched my MSI Neo 2 platinum mobo and got a LP UT SLI-DR.. I just have a quick question that i wanted to ask you guys since Im having a bit of problems and im not familiar with the board.
So the board claims that it uses the ALC850 chip that has 8 audio channels. Currently, Im using the Creative 7.1 T7700 and I have 3 speakers at the front, 2 on the side, 2 at the back and the subwoofer. I plugged the green, orange, and black wires into the corresponding colours of the onboard sound. I used the "Sound manager" program and NVMixer and i cant get my 2 side speakers to output sound. And yes, I changed to "7.1 Speakers" in the Audio properties in the control panel. The only way I can get it to output sound is if i push the switch to "5.1-->7.1 Upmix" which is located at the back of the subwoofer. If i do this, the sound that comes out of these side speakers are the same as the sound coming from the rear speakers. But I want DISTINCT sounds coming from the side compared to the rear speakers. Help?
Thanks for all your help guys. I appreciate it alot. I hope i have more luck with this mobo than the msi neo 2 platinum.
