I have searched and cant find this. Ok, problem is for my father-in-law's comp. He has the same setup as I do and wants to add some 5.1 to it. I am not sure exactly because I dont need it yet so havent looked into how to set it up and im at work right now so dont have my manual.

I know there are inputs for it on back but he said he tried to hook up some larger speakers that were connected to his two smaller PC speakers and then out to the inputs (although I think there he just have all four into the same input) I told him that wouldnt work and to try the PC speakers in the L/R front and the bigger floor standing stereo (with mini plug inputs) into the rear L/R. That didnt produce any sound so is there something you have to setup? A jumper or something to change the output to 5.1? Thanks...:confused:

Have him go into the Nvidia sound control panel and pick the right speaker setup there (2, 4.1, 5.1, etc).
