Hello everyone. I recently just purchased an x-fi platinum sound card.
I also have doom 3. I am having trouble setting up 5.1 surround sound
and all my looking on the net has left me clueless. This is my setup:
Sound Blaster X-Fi Platinum connected from "break out" box using a
digital optical out to my home receiver. I do not get surround sound
and when I open Doom there is not option to turn it on or anything. I
have my control panel set to 5.1 surround sound speakers and I know
this receiver accepts dolby and all the other surround sound formats
because my DVD player works perfectly with it. Should I have the Sound
Blaster software set to use an external decoder or the built in one?
Anything else I am missing?
Thanks,
Mike
