Default 5.1 External Sound Card - Vista Problem

Hi all,

I'm not sure if you are aware but Vista comes with a new Sound control
panel, which allows you to configure the device based on what it is. My
current system is that I have a laptop with only a headphone socket (2.1
sound). I have previously bought an external sound card for Windows XP Media
Edition, and that worked to convert the sound into 5.1 sound.

The new Vista configure options should house the option for me to be able to
change the output to the External Sound card as being 5.1, but here is my
problem:

Like a lot of my Vista control panel pages, it fails to load. When I click
on configure , there is a RunDDL error, and consequently it and Explorer die.
It does that regardless of time, or applications running. Do you know if
there is any way of getting my Vista control panel to actually work, without
the need of paying £45 to consult microsoft about their problem.

Thanks, Ian Clark
