No Surround Sound via HDMI
I have Windows 7 32 bit running on an Aver Aspire Revo 3610. The "sound card" is a High Definition Audio (I couldn't find further details on it). I'm trying to get surround sound on my Samsung reciever by plugging in a HDMI cable from the computer to the receiver. I get sound, but only through 2 speakers. I tried to adjust the settings in control panel; I don't have an option to select 5.1 surround sound under the HDMI device. Most forums I've found say to just select that option and I would love to, if only it was there!
I've updated Windows, made sure my drivers were up to date. I'm stuck. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I was told and read that I can do at least 5.1 surround sound with this computer...
