And i normally can play 5.1 from my laptops headphone socket in windows 7 but in my new built htpc for some reason when i play with the toslink in xmbc or media player classic or any other media players The sound is out of sync. the sound comes and goes. But if i use the hdmi with my tv i can hear the sound is in sync but play's in 2 channel. Am thinking if something is wrong with my motherboard since i have a few days left to exchange it if there is a problem with my motherboard. I have download all the drivers you and blu have said to download from asrock site for it to be able to play 5.1 in xmbc thanks
Sorry to read your trouble again, you can try these-

1. Download- High Definition Audio Codecs
2. Select Realtek HD Audio device in Windows 7 control panel/hardware and sound/sound
3. Cofigure speaker to 5.1 in Windows 7 control panel/hardware and sound/sound

After it work fine with MPC-HC, you can configure audio settings in XBMC settings/system/audio output.....
1. Audio Output: Optical/Coax
2. Speaker Configuration: 5.1
3. Select all the capable receiver options
4. Audio device- WASAP: Digitatal Audio (S/PDIF) (Realtek High Definition......)

Yeah it's so nice looking. I just saw the case yes2day and i was like. I must have this case even tho it's gonna cost me an arm and a leg lol. But what am gonna do is keep the build i have now and put it in that case then when amd kaveri come's out will upgrade the internal then. No point upgrading to trinity. Because that way i have to buy motherboard and cpu and i will have to upgrade again when kaveri come's out. Plus kaveri has a 7750 gpu built in to the cpu

You know, this case is 99% the same and it's half the price: http://www.ecosmartpc.com/ht100.html (compare the internal pics to the m10).

Beer40oz, congratulations on the picoPSU and everything working! Do you have a Kill-A-Watt meter? What's your power draw at idle, 1080p viewing and Prime95? I think if you have that information it'll help future A6-PACK "Pico de Gallo Remix ft. Dougie Fresh" Smile builders choose the right picoPSU.

I have to buy me a meter or if someone want's to send me one then cool!

Yes next thing will be Prime95

Ummm the 1080P has been done look at my first post.
But yeah not with the meter.....

I am really happy you got this worked out and I was happy to help with the picoPSU. We're saving the planet one PSU at a time. No more beige towers. No more overkill PSUs drawing 200W for nothing. NO MORE SET-TOP BOXES!

Yah! Go GREEN!

I wanted to buy another case and wow all the 65 cases are gone even on ebay..... alot of the 150's

Well the 150's take the PSU out.... then you will have an extra little window.

More airflow.... Smile

I'll wait on the 65.... I don't want to see the wires up in there..... LOL
