Logitech X-540 limited sound

I just got Logitech X-540 speakers for my computer. I only have the two front speakers hooked up. I can only get sound when listening to iTunes or if I'm on Windows Media Player or any other player. I do no get sound in games, on the internet, or just regular windows sounds.

- I have Windows XP
- Asus A8N-SLI Realtek ALC850 On-Board Sound

I have got the most up to date Realtek drivers. I have set my windows sound settings to 5.1 surround sound. Also when I open up the Realtek Sound Manager it recognizes my speakers as rear speakers when they are hooked up to be front.

Why dont you have them all hooked up? I have the same speakers but I the model that only has 2 speakers. Try pluging your audio cable in the front where you would plug head phones in. Assuming that this is a desktop.

Yes there has to be a configuration for the 5.4 surround sound... look if the hardware came with a CD to update the sound driver. or Check if the its correctly configured. on the control panel then click Sound, then depending what windows you have have to lookk for the configuration or properties area and configure as 5.0 or sorround etc.

Connect DVD Player to logitech X 540 Surround System
Bad connection on that one speaker, if you have tested the system with other equipment and it works thn you MUST have a bad connection INSIDE you DVD player. If your DVD had a whole channel out on your output amplifier I beleive then 2 speakers would not work so more than likely you have a bad solder joint inside system for DVD output

Proper set up
Try to google the brand name and get the user's manual. Usually the extra cords plug into one of the other speakers and then one to the computer. Sound card could be an issue but I doubt it.
