No Sound, but card and speakers are working

Hey, I've been using my SB X-Fi card and my Logitech 5.1 speakers for over a year now and they've worked great. I recently formatted my Hard Drive and, since reinstallation of drivers, they've stopped working. I can open the Creative Console, and by clicking the speaker icons I can hear "Front left" when I click on the Front Left, etc. But when I play a song in WMP, or play a game, no sound is coming out of the speakers. I've tried changing the default sound device in Windows, but nothing happens. It should be on the right one anyways, Windows shows that sound is coming out even though I don't hear it. Is there a problem with the card? Or is this some Windows problem?

Hi,

Try Start > Creative > Creative restore defaults (or something similar).
