Hey guys this is going to be a long question so thanks for helping!
Ok first my setup.
I have my pc and the soundcard is the Creative Soundblaster X-Fi Platinum Fatal1ty Champion Series.
Computer hardware and software at amazing prices, available online from Scan Computers UK
My amp is ONKYO TXSR605E HOME CINEMA RECEIVER

My speakers are the Acoustic Energy Aegis Evo 1 (2 Floor Standers, 2 Rear Speakers, 1 Center and Subwoofer). So 5.1 for short. Here is a link to the speakers in case any info is needed.

I have the speakers connected to my pc via this lead (eight RCA connectors)

I also have it connected via a Digital lead as well.
Now im trying to get 5.1 sound but im not able to do it for some reason.
I would like to get 5.1 in my music too. I know music isnt 5.1 but id like it to do it artificially like my old logitech Z5500's done. But im not able to get 5.1 in my films for some reason.
Can anyone help me. I would like to use winamp or wmp11 as my media player but if there is a better one then let me know.
When playing music through winamp it doesnt even use my Sub.
Also if you have any tips in improving the sound then that would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks guys. Just want to get the best out of my setup as im sure you understand.
