got a X-Fi Titanium Fatal1ty I am connecting it with optical cable to a 7.1 home theater amp (yamaha RX-Z7) but regardless what I do to it to make it 7.1 it keep detecting I have 5.1 only even I force it for 7.1 when I do the sound test it just skipped or say no sound at the last two to middle two speaker. So I have to force my amp to use all channels instead of digital decode mode.
I am running x86 xp with most updated driver.
Tried to call creative they keep tell me it must be the movies I am playing doesn't support 7.1 I told them I can't even get xp to set up a 7.1 mode, seem like they don't really want to investigate on my case further.
Also at some point I thought is xp problem so I tried win 7. also runs with most current driver but still the same result. as long as I use digital output I can't get to 7.1
