SB-Audigy Platinum and Prosonic Pro-747 5.1 surround problem.

Windows XP Professional
AMD Athlon XP 2100+
A7V333 KT333 chipset MB
512 DDR333
Sound Blaster Audigy Platinum (with front pannel)
GeForce 3 Ti 500


note: I've put the Soundcard in PCI slot 4, which (on my mobo) does not share with anything. (I've heard that some soundcards are sensative to such things)

In short... I cant get it to work.

The prosonic has 5 speakers + 1 bass, all 5 speakers plug into base. From that point there are two outputs Left and Right. at the other side of these outputs you put a joining cable thingy (it plugs both L&R's in to make it one plug) I then plug this into the SB Audigy Digital Port (at the back) (the plugs are the same size as standard speakers)

I can get it to work very very poorly if I turn the speakers all the way up (I can just barely hear things) There is horrible interference when I turn ON "digital output only", and without this function my 80$ investment it useful for only one speaker (the center one)

I've tried what Creative suggested and changed the sampling rate in "device controlls", I've tried them all, I get the best performance at 96 KHz (but it's still truly horrible)

Please help me :( It sucks having a useless sound system...

An $80 investment for the sound card and the speakers???

I'll ask the obvious, please don't be insulted. What you are experiencing sounds like you are plugged into an unamplified signal. Are you sure you are plugged into the correct output jack? Some sound cards have a line out and a speaker out. Do you know which one you are using?

171 for the soundcard 80 for the speakers.

And I know what to plug everything into.
