5.1 Subwoofer And Center Mixing?
Jun 13, 2012
I just got a dedicated subwoofer today (by dedicated I mean one meant to go into a receiver for a home theater) and I'm trying to set it up as part of my 5.1 set up for my computer. My set up is actually kind of ghetto in a sense. I have two, two piece speakers that are probably meant to be 2.0 set ups separately, all hooked up to my computer and ran as a 5.1 set up. Till today I was just missing a subwoofer and I saw a deal at Best Buy for an Insignia NS-RSW211 for $25 and decided to get one thinking that it'd be a piece of cake set up. Well after an hour of installing and uninstalling drivers I'm still at square one with my set up. The problem is that on my motherboard, the Center and Subwoofer channels are combined into one even though I have six channels on the board. I linked some pictures of my set up in the Realtek client. When I have the "Swap Center" feature on, I have no center but the bass plays out of the sub. However when I have "Swap Center" off, the bass plays out of the center and nothing comes out of the sub. I've been surfing a lot of different forums and no one really has a good solution besides buying a dedicated sound card.

When I plug in my headphones I can still hear sound coming from my computer, I checked and found out that it is actually coming from my computer's subwoofer, the only way to disable it is to actually lower the volume down to 0, even using mute will not turn off the subwoofer and will still play at the volume it is left at. I have tried searching for what could cause the problem, trying every possible combination of sound drivers that could be the source of the issue but I cant find the solution, does anyone know what could be happening? Windows has no information on these things and it seems to be something unique since I cant find a similar problem on google.

I recently bought an Acer Aspire 7738G laptop with Windows 7. After a day or two the speakers (in fact i think it was the internal subwoofer) started to make a loud grinding noise which was intermittant but which became increasingly prevalent. It seemed sometimes to be brought on by my going online or somethin like that whilst music was playing, but sometimes started on it's own. Thinking it was a hardware problem I changed my laptop for exactly the same model. Unfortunately however after a few days exactly the same thing has started to happen.
I don't think I am the only one to have had this problem (see link below) and I wonder if it's aproblem with Windows 7 and Acer internal subwoofers. I am not a techy and all I can think to do is to take this laptop back and get a non Acer one. I'd rather not go through all that again (transferring itunes alone is a pain let alone getting the computer to perform in the shop).
Please let me know therefore if there is a simple fix to save me the trouble.

I just installed Win 7 and I have a 7.1 setup, but my subwoofer is not working. I'm pretty sure it's a driver/config issue, because all wiring is OK and it was working on XP some hours ago. I have an Audigy 2 ZS, but I also tried my onboard Realtek High Definition Audio, but the subwoofer does not work.
Anyone experiencing that / any tips for me ?
Edit: So, anyone got the Audigy 2ZS to work yet?

My problem is that i don't get any bass out of my subwoofer, my system (as i configurate) recognizes my subwoofer, but as soon as i listen to music there's no sound coming out of it!
My other speakers work, but only the bass is missing!
I wanted to install the console launcher from CD, but in Setup windows said "couldn't find any compatible hardware. Setup will be closed"
But i do not find any latest console launcher in Creative technical support, that's compatible with my Live 24 bit soundcard.
I started this thread, because i couldn't contact any other user who's problem was solved .

I purchased a new Asus laptop a few weeks ago with Windows 7 Home Premium installed. The laptop has Conexant Cocoa II High Definition SmartAudio speakers. The problem I'm having is in regards to the sound I am getting from both my laptop speakers and my external speakers which plug into the headphone port not having any bass. When I have my external speakers plugged into my old laptop running Windows XP the sound is fine and all speakers and subwoofer work, so I know it is all wired properly. When I unplug from my old laptop and plug it into my new one with Windows 7, there is no bass being played. The subwoofer doesn't work and the bass that usually comes from the speakers is not present, and turning up the subwoofer doesn't do anything. I've tried to use the "Bass Management" enhancement feature in the speaker properties, but it has no effect. The only thing I've been able to find that will lead to the sound having bass, is when I enter the set-up for the "Room Correction" feature in the enhancement tab for the speaker properties. During the set-up, the sound has bass, but as soon as the set-up finishes the sound returns to having no bass. The odd part is when sound is playing out of just the laptop speakers, the "Room Correction" set-up menu causes bass to be played out of them too. So I know my laptop has the potential to play bass, it just seems like something is stopping it. I cannot find any equalizer feature. My laptop didn't have Realtek when I got it, but I've downloaded the latest version and installed it (I think) but it hasn't changed anything.

I'm trying to config my sound system and sub out only works in "test" actually now it doesn't work at all! the rest of my speakers work fine for the most part.
I have tried everything I can think of and this is really getting to me, I use my computer for movies, netflix, music quite often. I'm pretty sure I'm running realtec HD audio....Or Sigmatel?

I am running Windows 7 on a new computer with no TV tuner. I am unable to see Internet TV or Netflix in Windows Media Center. When I try the automatic download (Download Now) option, I get an error message that the Guide cannot be downloaded.After looking at these message boards, I have tried turning off my firewall before downloading and tried adding the Media Center programs to the allowed programs in my firewall application, but I still get the same errors.

My HP 1510 printer works fine with Windows 7-64 via the drivers that were downloaded on Windows Update. My problem is that I like the HP Solution Center for scanning, but the install disc would not even load. That is, I get an error that says the software (HP SC) is not compatible with the operating system. Anybody know of a way to allow the software to be installed? If not, is there a good scanning software that works with 64 bit?

I am building a Media Center PC. I have two questions relating to Windows Media Center:
1) I can watch TV via TV card, but can I watch TV from another source such as HDMI or AV from my satalite reciever or PS3?
2) Can WMC work with a dual monitor graphics card? I would like to transmit the media center screen via AV to monitors & speakers, while being able to use the PC for other use via VGA connection.

I'm having trouble combining PowerDVD9 x 7MC when I play my Blu-rays from the driver, crashes, excessive delay to load the movie, etc
When I use PDVD outside of 7MC everything works perfect.
I wonder if I can put a call to PDVD on the media center menu to have it working outside of MC.
is it possible?

My network icon started displaying a red x about a week ago. now here's the kicker both my Wired and Wireless still work and if I hover the mouse above the icon it tells me I'm conected to my network. Now if I enter the Network and Sharing Center it tells me my access type is internet and my homegroup is Joined and that I have connection to the internet and that I'm connected by Lan but only through the full map does it tell me Lan Connection. Under Connections there is nothing listed.
Also under Change Adapter settings the only item that is currently there is my Bluetooth network. Please help more annoying than anything. And yes the internet works I'm on it right now.

I just purchased a new laptop and installed the printer drivers for my HP 7310xi all-in-one printer. The printer works fine. I have it on a wireless network. When I click on HP Solution Center, it says "HP Solution Center cannot run because the set-up was not complete. Re-run the set-up program from the installation CD for a network installation." What concerns me is the fact that other people are having problems with the HP Solution Center and Windows 7. I tried to find a download for the HP Solution Center that works for Windows 7.

I have downloaded HP Solution Center and followed directions to the "T".Unplugged ethernet cable etc. During the install it recognizes my printer a 7410 but when doing final install it pops up a large red X. When trying to open the Solution Center I get an error message."It can not run because yor device installation is not complete" Then tells you to unplugged the printer and re-install. Have done that several times.Have it connected with an ethernet cable via the router. Even tried to connect direct.

I got a virus (winupgro.exe). Afterwards, that program showed up in my task manager, but I was unable to end the process. I also got a notification that I would need to restart my computer in order to turn off UAC. Since I did not want to turn off UAC, I went back in, and turned the UAC back on. I then ran a virus scan with Norton. It didnt seem to find my virus, so I just shut down the computer.Winupgro.exe no longer shows up in task manager, but I cannot turn on Windows Security Center - getting the dialog box "The Windows Security Center service can't be started".Malwarebytes was able to find and remove it, but I still cannot open windows security center (after a restart).I used FreeCommander to run create md5 checksums. After searching the output file, I did not find any references to winupgro or its checksum string.
