Dell D630 5.1 Output

I bought a Dell latitude d630 in south africa. How do I check if it gives 5.1, spdif out or normal line out?

I'm running windows xp s.p.2.

    Hi, 5.1 would normally have more than one audio out for additional channels other than the single headphone output. Looking at your model, I would assume that it is a standard 2.1 output (stereo on 2 channels) and not 5.1.

    I looked at the pictures in the owner's manual and agree with chaistt. Models with direct 5.1 output have 2 headphone jacks but yours only has one. Models with spdif have a 7 pin s-video jack but yours lacks it. It looks like you have regular stereo line out.
