My computer is a dell dimension 8250

I got speakers for it, logitech 5.1, and they wouldn't work, i bought a new sound card (sound blaster audigy) and it's the same, only get sound through 2 speakers

Anyone help me with this one?

Could it be the PSU ?

Hya Aqeous , welcome to PCHF.

Did you install the drivers for the new card card? And after installing did you select 5.1 speakers in the card's software?

Have you also checked if the speakers are plugged in correctly?

Yeh tried all what you said, nothing happening

The wierd thing is, when i do a sound test, each speaker works.

Could it be the PSU ?

So confused!

What player are you using?

I am using windows media player, and i have changed the device to sound blast audigy

What could be the problem?

Any ideas?

Are you running a sound source with 5 channels (not counting LFE) if you're listining to an MP3 then you probably won't get all speakers running. If you are watching a DVD then check the menu on the DVD to make sure it's not just playing 2.0 Stereo.
