As the title suggests, My T7900 speakers will not output at anything more than 2.1.
These speakers were outputting fine at 7.1 at one stage and today, whilst playing Homefront, i noticed that the front centre, middle and rear speakers didn't seem to be active.
I checked in windows what the speakers were outputting at and it said 2/2.1 with no option to change it.
I did a sound test and it played the relevant sounds as though there was a 5.1 speaker set up but those sounds only played through the front left and right speakers.
I've uninstalled the drivers and reinstalled the up to date versions but no matter what drivers i've tried, none will get the system to output at anything more than 2.1.
I've even installed the program Slim Drivers just to make sure all my hardware drivers are fully up to date which they are.
I've tried removing the cables from the sound card to the speakers and refitting them.
I've tried flicking the switch on the back of the sub unit from direct to 5.1 - 7.1 up mix and 6.1 - 7.1 up mix and none of it has worked.
I'm at a loss on what to do here as i've tried everything i could to get them working and nothing has changed so far.
The sound card i have is the Creative Sound Blaster X-Fi XtremeMusic
Has anyone else had this issue?
Could it be a result of installing the service pack update for Windows 7?
I'm really at a loss here and need help from anyone willing to help me out.
Thanks in advanced guy's.
