Re: Ati Say I Can Get Sound Through Dvi?

I have just looked at the specs and it does say built in 5.1 sound, if I remember rightly not all leads carry audio, do yours?

Looking a bit more at this, have you changed your sound device to "ATI HD sound decoder"

Re: Ati Say I Can Get Sound Through Dvi?

Check control panel->sound and see if you have ati audio listed, if so try setting it to default.
