Default New Sound Card - Install help

I just picked up a Sabrent 6 Channel 5.1 PCI sound card

Installed fine, used install disc. Hooking up a Logitech 5.1 system. So far it sounds amazing. Sub is working, front speakers are working, but I cant hear anything from the rears.

The logitech cables were green, amber and black. The sound card had green, amber, pink and 2 blue. I cant figure out where to put the black cable out of those options. This could be why the rears arent working.

This is the sound card.

Have you looked in your sound cards program for a jack sensing setup or where you can set what speakers are hooked to what jacks?

I went into the control panel, disable the onboard audio, got the new card going, and set it to 5.1 set up............ cant find anything else from the card to play around with

I put on TOP GUN in 5.1 mode, and didnt anything from the rears

Sorry I'm not sure what model they are, just a 5.1 Logitech system I got at bestbuy last year

I got the rears to work, finally found an icon for the new card which allowed me to set the ports to what speaker config I had, 2.1, 5.1 and so on, sounds even better now

Thanks for the help you two
