I don't see a 4.1 mode or a 2.1 mode. And selecting 5.1 mode, then connecting fewer of the speakers, just won't sound right. For example, if you select 5.1 mode, and use a 4.1 speaker system, then the energy being sent to the center speaker will be missing from the sound image. That means the surround sound won't be quite as good, as it would be with a center speaker. But, with Soundmax, that is probably the best configuration you can use for your speakers, if they consist of 2 front, 2 rear, and a sub woofer speaker. The latest manual is he ftp://www.asus.it/pub/ASUS/misc/audi..._UserGuide.zip Sometimes on computer sound, there is something called "clone mode", and that is where the signal fed to front left and right speaker, is copied to rear left and right speakers. This is effectively stereo, but with duplicated speakers. I don't see an option in the Soundmax mixer panel for that mode, but if that mode existed, it would ruin the surround effect. Try using the setup wizard and test the speakers one by one in the environment test. See the "Adjust Speaker Volume" picture here - this is the panel you want to use to adjust the setup: http://www.fcenter.ru/img/article/so...ns_2/32730.gif There is some Soundmax info here, of limited value: http://www.soundmax.com/products/faqs/index.html http://forms.analog.com/Form_Pages/s...upportFAQ.html http://www.soundmax.com/products/doc...ion/index.html HTH, Paul |

There will be three sliders in the mixer, labelled "front", "rear", "center". There is a little button next to the "center" slider - click it, and try both possible settings of the swap control, to get your sub woofer to work. Do you have other sound system software loaded ? Perhaps you should uninstall other sound hardware drivers. HTH, Paul |
