Windows 10: Speaker output

My laptop has the standard stereo 2.0 jack. However I have an old 5.1 surround sound system that has 3 input wires green, black and yellow which is designed for old computers or computers that have those big audio cards with many different coloured ports.


Is there a way I can make the 5.1 surround work using my 2.0 input in my laptop? Right now all the speakers work but they work as if its a 2.0 configuration not 5.1. If I use one of those 3 port to 1 port dongles, would that work? or not since the port is 2.0?

No Audio Output Device is Installed

Hi,

You will need to select Windows 8 from the drop down list while installing the driver in compatibility mode.

I would suggest you to try setting the speaker as default audio output by following the steps below and check if it helps.

1. Right click on the sound icon on the right bottom corner of the taskbar.

2. Select "playback devices".

3. If "speaker" is not set as the default device, highlight it and click "set as default".

5. Save the changes.

Let us know the result.

 

Windows 10 audio stutters regardless of driver or output used, more noticeable on the toslink and surround sound.
