I've acquired a nice home theatre speaker system but I'm not sure how to connect it correctly to the PC to get 5.1 surround.
For the moment I've connected a Y splitter to the green audio out on the PC and the RCAs to the DVD input on the sub woofer.
I'm not actually sure if the three inputs on the sub have different characteristics or not anyway.
I'd read somewhere that the three generic sound ports..line in, audio out and mic (blue,green and pink) also serve as sub and speaker options.
I'd also be happy to buy a dedicated 5.1 PCI sound card if that helps because the VIA integrated sound is just 2 channel I believe.
Any ideas?
Cheers
