Ok - for the purpose of this problem (in the neverending lists of things that I have trouble with) the game in question is WArhammer Online (WAR) and online talking software is Ventrilo 3.05.

My current audio is the onboard Realtek audio card on my Gigabyte MB - but I have a Creative Labs Titanium card coming in the post.

I use my 5.1 speaker system with War for total imersion gaming(and loving it) - but for guild events and warbands we use Ventrillo to talk in real-time. This is a problem when ventrilo outputs to the speakers because to hear people it has to be louder than the game, and if I output to heaphones I loose much of the enviromental audio.

SO, is is possible to set the system so that ventrilo outputs to headphones and the game outputs to the normal speaker ports?

(headphones is of course connected to headphone jack, and 5.1 control box is connected to normal speaker output jack.)

Any help appriciated.
