I think even on board chip also 5.1 nowadays. Maybe you try to update the sound driver on mobo.

I check on Internet that the spec for audio is still 5.1. You should be able to find the 5.1 selection in drop down list. Why not reinstall audio driver

ICH5 built-in audio controller + AC97 Codec ALC655 (5.1 channel) hmm.gif

oooo I think it is not about the pc. Actually how do you connect to your audio system? Thru Yamaha emx-200? Will the Yamaha accept the S/PDIF output of your motherboard?

If it does, then still you need to go to Control Panel>Sound>Playbak Device .... blah blah blah and select 5.1 output

I think this mixer accept stereo signals only, i.e. stereo signals from several source. Anyway, the mixer is to mix sounds from multiple source. It is not meant to mix FrontLeft:FrontRight, RearLeft:RearRight and Center:Sub. Did not work like that like +3kk! said smile.gif
