Okay. I just built a second box just because. Its on a K7S5A board with the on board sound: C-Media 9738 Chip, and I have a extra 4.1 soundcard which has the C-Media 8738 chip on it. Now I bought a set of Labtec Arena 675's for $30 bucks yesterday at CompUSA and they are just a basic set of 5.1 speakers. What I wanted to do is hook them up to this system, but I lack the soundcard that will support it.
As of now, Im using the onboard sound. But I wanted to know if it was possible to stick this other 4.1 card in aswell and use both to get enough connections so I could have 5.1 sound (Granted, a 5.1 soundcard is only like 10 bucks but thats not the point. I just wanted to do it the hard way because the easy way is for resol's )
I know (well, at least I heard) that these particular sound cards can be re-flashed and set the way you want them. For example like you can set the Mic jack to be Center instead... Get what im saying? Or instead of trying this my way and using two soundcards, if theres a way to make configure the 4.1 card to do what I want it to do, thats fine too.
If not, Ill probaly just go out and buy one... But I just wanted to screw around with this... Give me something to do Any and All information is greatly appreciated. Many Many Thanks In Advance for any help you can give me
