This could be several problems. To figure it out have you tried playing multiple media's through? Such as watching television programming, a DVD, a Blu-Ray, a CD, a radio station, etc... You may not have all of these hooked up through your receiver but switching up the media may give you a difference. If you are hearing the pops and snaps through just one, such as when you watch DVD's, then it would be the signal coming from the DVD player. To further investigate switch up the DVD's to see if it's just on movie or all of them. If not and you are getting these sounds on everything you play through the receiver than check that your speaker wires are connected properly (not loose or touching the other connector) then check that the wires themselves haven't been compromised (hard crimpes in the wire, split wires [I had this problem and I found out my cat was eating a wire] or if you fastened a wire in place with nails, staples, etc that they aren't going through the wire) if you have wires going under the house or through the attic then checking these is key, even though it's probably a pain in the ass. Replacing these is cheaper than a new system. If your sure that all of the above is good and in top shape than try to determine where the sounds are coming from. Are they coming from one speaker or all of them? Typically if you have blown speakers, which can make this sound, than it wouldn't be all of them unless you just had a party and one of your guests cranked it up and messed around with it blowing them all. If you hear it from one than try switching the speaker with another to see if it's the signal it's getting or if the speaker is blown. If your getting these sounds from all of them than your receiver may be in need of servicing or replacing.

How do you properly output 5.1 sound from your computer into a surround sound system for gaming?

You need to get your computer to output a 5.1 sound signal to that a receiver can decode it and give you your surround sound. If that's what you're trying to do. Another way would be to purchase a sound card that decodes the 5.1 signal and offers the jacks on the back so that all you have to do is purchase a surround sound speaker set, but make sure it's for computers so that the jacks will be the same, and that way you can cut out the middle man, which would be your receiver.
