It's my first time here, and sorry, as i'm not an expert, i will probably ask a noob question.  So there we go: I have a MoBo Z170 Gaming K6+ Fatality gaming Gear and i have a Home Theather 5.1 Model Samsung HT-F5525WK. The matter is: I can't reproduce sound 5.1.  Can i have some help about this issue ? Much apreciated!

Sorry but you haven't told us any details about how your PC is connected to your home theater system, and how it is configured.

When you say your Sound Card, do you mean the audio that is included with your mother board? If it is the mother board audio, do you have the Realtek audio driver installed?

Do you use Windows? If you do, what version?

How do you have the PC connected to the Samsung home theater system? What inputs do you have on the Samsung system?

What is the source of the audio signal from the PC? DVD or Blue Ray drive? Or something else?

What format is the 5.1 signal from the PC? Dolby Digital? DTS?

If you use Windows, have you configured the Sound option in Control Panel? You must select the default audio source in Sound, and then configure it for the type of 5.1 signal you use.
