surround sound help

[Wideboy]

had to reinstall windows and I'm trying to set up the surround sound again

I've got it working and works with everything except the internet (youtube ect), when playing sound through internet videos the sub doesn't work so i just get tinny crap tone

i managed to do it last time but i cant remember what i did, can anyone help?

Control Panel
Sounds and Audio Devices
Advanced Button in Speaker Settings box
Select 5.1 from the drop down menu

yep done that and the sound card settings are set to 5:1

Ok so a fresh install of windows points to me that you MAY have to go to the manufacturers website to download latest drivers for the Soundcard or Onboard Sound .

[Wideboy]

fair point will give it a try

First port of call from any fresh install is Drivers mate

yeah silly me cheers for teh help i will update in a view mins if it works

Keep me posted , I`ll make a brew and come back to see what has occurred

[Wideboy]

right that's a driver i already had and it all works however when browsing through files on the C drive or what ever the woofer makes a loud anoying thud noise then you open a folder, so i reverted back to the older one and everything works except on the internet

Ok let me apply some Google-Fu to this and see what occurrs
