Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   Hey all,

i desperatly try to activate 5.1/7.1 Sound for my AsRock Z490. The manual only says, that it can be activated but doesnt say a word about how. 
I got only 3 audio jack (2 audio + 1 mic) on my mainboard and i know i can somehow reconfigure the micro jack to another audio jack.
Usually you can use the realtek audio manager to do so, but unfortunatly asrock doesnt seem to provide a realtek audio manager anymore. I can only find the realtek audio console which has nearly no function at all.

Please give me a hint how to activate 5.1/7.1 sound i.e. how to reconfigure the rear audio jacks.

Best regards
Cuby

	Dear Cuby, Thanks for posting your query to the ASRock forum. The Realtek audio manager has combined into the Win10 since the previous Win10 update. And it is now called Realtek audio console. The following link will guide you to enable the surround sound on the system. https://drive.google.com/file/d/1nQ7wRNst2eOeg-u-OMJpNaF0UT-Qrmz2/view?usp=sharing With thanks, ASRock TSD Edited by ASRock_TSD - 23 Jun 2020 at 5:39pm
