i just got the p4p800-dx, nicely setup and everything running nice

so i setup my 4 speakers, run the test, works fine

i open up winamp (2.91 and 5) and neither of them got the rear speakers to work

so i open up cod, rear speakers work fine

i open up windown media player, rear speakers work fine as well

any clue how to get my rear speakers working in winamp? thats my main audio player and i hate to lose surround sound.....

thanks

edit: im using onboard sound w/ soundmax software installed
 
In Winamp, Preferences, Plugins/Output Double-click DirectSound Output. Enable the option for "Allow Hardware Acceleration" Click Apply and then OK.



Do the rear speakers work now?

i thank you.
 
what would it be that would stop you from being able to check the "Allow Hardware Acceleration" box? I have a similar setup with a Soltek board and a 4.1 system....
