Another problem is that when i put a dvd in my computer the sound will get all funny soundin but it wont do it at first it will sound perfectly fine and then go ape. when the sound skips so does the screen. ive used many different dvds and even brand new ones and they all make the same noise. everything else plays just fine even a cd in the same drive plays without a problem . i dont understand why it would do that. Can someone please help me? I would greatly appreciate any help u can give me.

do you have the drivers installed?

maybe your computer isnt 'good' enough to play DVDs (not enough RAM etc..)

Check Drivers (Download Latest, if not)

Unplug all speakers after you have done this.

Now using the wizard for your speakers, plug in 'Speaker 1' and test it out. If the sound appears when the PC is showing you, say, 'Top Left' then move your PC to that position. Do this one at a time to all of your speakers including your bass and you should be fine.

I got the dvds to work by just reformatting my computer with windows xp borg edition but i still cant get the center speaker to work.
