when i put my speakers on six channel direct all sounds come from speakers except the center one and the other speakers are decently loud. The only time when i get soudn from all speakers is when i put it on proIImovie + proIImusic but the front is really quiet except for the center. Do i need to buy a coax or digital cable in order to have everyting play on six channel or what?

Yep.. that's basically the problem. Normally your sound card won't send a signal on the center channel unless you have a source that specifically HAS a center channel. On the other hand, with ProLogic (the two modes you speak of) it creates channels that don't exist in the source material. There's nothing wrong with your speakers.
