I'm able to play with 7.1 if I disable EAX. You should try that.

The thing is that I don't have a dedicated audio card , also I tried what you said but it didn't work.

What onboard audio chipset do you have? Realtek, ASUSTeK, VIA or what?

First step, identify your Audio chipset through Manage My Computer

Second, update audio chipset drivers if necessary. Windows Update should do this automatically, so don't worry if there isn't an update available.

Third, find the 3rd party utility for your Audio chipset,
Realtek is called Realtek HD Audio Manager
ASUSTek also uses similar, called Asus Realtek HD Audio Manager / Realtek ALC892 or ALC(whichever number audio chipset you have)

GO into that program and switch to 5.1 audio output in the Speaker Configuration tab.

I have a realtek sound card , and I already did that but it dosen't work , only the front speakers work , no rear , central or subwoofer . Also I installed the PRTA Sound Mod and tried that too , same result .
