I GOT MY SOUND BACK ON MY SURROUND SPEAKERS! NO IT'S NOT BAD QUALITY SOUND! IT'S ACTUALLY GOOD QUALITY SOUND THAT I USED TO GET IN WINDOWS XP! YES! For those who are using Realtek HD Audio and want to get surround sound when playing music and what not, do this. First download
RapidShare: 1-CLICK Web hosting - Easy Filehosting, then install that. Then download:
RapidShare: 1-CLICK Web hosting - Easy Filehosting, and install that. Don't forget to restart the computer when prompted to. Once you do that, go into the Realtek HD Audio Manager and change your speaker setup from Stereo to whatever you have. Then run Creative Audio Console. Go to X-Fi CMSS 3D, click X-Fi CMSS3D Surround, in the Upmix Mode select Stereo Surround. Voila! If you want to change your other settings, run Creative Console Launcher. There you can change your equalizer settings and stuff. I changed mine to Rock. You change the X-Fi Crystalizer as well, but I have no idea what that does. I can't detect any change in sound when I change that so I left it alone for now. Keep in mind that the Creative Audio Console and Creative Console Launcher has a 30 day trial. I'm going to be asking Daniel_K what happens after that trial expires. His blog is at:
Daniel_K MANY THANKS DANIEL_K! HE'S DONE IT AGAIN! Edit: Tried editing it a few times to make it easier to read but it's not working...
