Default Why is vista doing this to me? :p
OK I have a question. I recently installed windows vista and now it won't recognize my 5.1 surround sound speakers. I recently installed the drivers for the speakers and it works but the computer only recognizes that I have 2.1 speakers. It doesn't recognize my subwoofer or any of my other speakers. There are four ports on my amp for my subwoofer and my speakers. They are as follows, front, rear, center, C/sub, rear, front. The only speakers that will work by the ones that I plug in to the front amp port.
In windows XP it recognizes that I have 5.1 surround sound speakers. Why isn't it recognizing that I have 5.1 in vista?
If anybody can help me I'd be very grateful thanks,
Kenny

All cool. Can anybody direct me to some vista drivers? I am using Microsoft's speech recognition right now, that is why I'm making some errors and not noticing it. It's awefully cool!
