    Hi,

    I'm using a Sound-blaster Live 5.1 sound card.

    Is there a way I could get both Front Channel Output and Rear Channel Output through the Rear Channel Out (Surround Out) of my sound card?

    The surround mixer came with the drivers does not allow this. If this can be done via some other tool or hack please post. I'd be really grateful.

    Thank you.

    It's not physically possible to do that with a sound card, but let me ask....Why?

    Okay...

    The other day while I was playing GTA-SA I accidentally damaged my sound cards' front channel out socket. Since I was in an urge of continuing the game, I plugged my 5.1 speaker systems' front channel in plug into the sound cards' rear channel out socket. But then when I went back to the game I couldn't hear the sounds coming from front of CJ. There was no in-game option to fix this. So, I posted here expecting a quick fix.

    Since I bought a new sound card I don't want to do this now. Anyways, I suspect there could be a way of doing that...

    PS: Thanx for your concern...
