Surround sound optimization

I have the Logitech Z-680 speaker system. I have it hooked up direct to my
SoundBlaster Audigy soundcard. I have two of my speakers mounted on the
wall behind me and can't really hear the surround sound. I have the
surround setting maxed out on my control pod for my speaker system and can
still not hardly hear them. Is there a setting on Windows that I can use to
enhance my surround sound to make it louder? If not, is there a download
that I can get to adjust the volume of my surround sound? I only have the
basic software installed for my creative soundcard since I have so many
problems with the Creative software. When I use the Stereo X2 effect on my
speakers, the surround sound is perfect, but I lose the center channel in
this mode. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

Problem solved! Did some software updates and such for my sound card and
the updates included just what I was looking for to adjust my fade. Now
it's perfect!
