    ATi 3450 HDMI.. no audio?

    its hooked directly to my tv. ran with the original drivers on cd, which worked.. then updated the realtek hdmi audio drivers because the old one seemed to have a little audio lag time. just disabled my onboard sound and it worked like a champ. fairly sure the 5.1 works as advertised also.
