Product: Pavilion 15-n267ea
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)
Hi,

Just wondering if any of you guys/gals know how to configure 5.1 surround through 3.5mm jack? I have a HP Pavilion 15-n267ea notebook with Windows 10 64bit currently installed. My HDD failed last year so I had to install a fresh copy of windows (without HP software) because I never made a backup.

If there is a way, I would be grateful if you could let me know in a few steps. I have a surround system hooked up with a 3.5mm jack audio input. Any help would be appreciated.

Regards

Hello @Androider86,

 

Thank you for visiting the HP Forums! The Forums are a great place where you can find solutions for your issues, with help from the community!

 

I read your post about the sound issue, and wanted to assist you!

 

From my understanding, to achieve 5.1 output, you would need the 3 stereo analogue outputs, or you would need to do it through HDMI.  I hope this helps.
