7.1 Headset Only Using Front Channel?

[Cortland V]

Hi everybody. This is my first post here. I have a Razer Tiamat 7.1 headset. It has worked for me ever since the beginning of this year, but now, after I have installed my new Solid State Drive and new Nvidia graphics card (I used to have AMD) and installed all the new drivers, the 7.1 surround sound decides to only use the front channel. If I turn down the volume on the front channel, all volume goes down. It is basically acting as a main vol. now. None of the other channels have any effect on the sound. When I look for my sound drivers it has two of them:

-Realtek HD audio
-Nvidia HD audio.

There is no bass or anything.

Anybody got any ideas of what the problem might be or how to fix it?
