I've just installed a 5.1 PCI sound card, but the rear 2 speakers aren't workingI installed the drivers which came with the CD, hooked up the 3.5mm jacks according to colour, then changed the settings (using WinXP btw) in control panel / sound and audio devices to the new card + to 5.1 sound. I also have a sound card on my mobo, could that be conflicting?
I think I've covered all bases, what could be wrong?

Thanks!
Edit: Yep, that fixed it: going into control panel / sound and audio devices / hardware tab / click on each mobo audio device / disable![]()
