Question Side speaker port. Where?

[Leonellar]

have a Z77 Extreme4 motherboard that says it has 7.1 Ch HD Audio. Has green, orange, black, blue, and pink ports but I can't find the grey port for side speakers. What can I do to have 7.1 Ch? It only gives me 5.1. Thanks in advance.

Do you have the option to "re-map" ports with the Realtek Audio Manager utility (in Control Panel, if installed)?

I have realtek audio manager. I will check later this remap thingy. I don't know how to use the remap yet. Can you give me instructions on how to do it so when I get home, I will do it. Thanks. Sorry, I am at work now. 😉

No worries. I have found a way to manually remap the ports. I just put the side speaker on the front headphone speaker as I use a USB headset so kinda useless to me. Anyway thanks for the idea of remapping ports.
