Hello,

im really stuck. I first upgraded my pc from xp service pack 2 to vista hom basic. After realising that most of my hardware did not work with vista, I down graded to xp service pack 3. Everything seems to be working fine now except for the speakers. Please tell me what to do.

Ok so the first thing to check is whether your audio driver is actually working. Do you get any sound at all? This might be due to the wrong configuration of your driver or incompatibility with the os/ service pack that you have. I would suggest that you uninstall and install the audio driver again. Be careful not to download any spyware or malware while doing so.

Also, check whether the Master Volume is not set to mute all. You can make sure that it works by selecting your audio options in the control panel. Now that you have checked this, ensure that the speaker are properly plugged in and that they are on... I know this might seem stupid but it does happen sometimes when the focus is turned to a deeper issue with the computer.

Good luck

Look kid, I know why they won't work.
If you've hooked them up on your own, ask the brand dude for the real instructions.
Now bye!
P.S. DO AS THE INST5RUCTIONS SAY!
Got it?

My problem is somewhat similar.

Except my problem started when I downloaded Windows Blind.
My Computer started acting weird so I uninstalled it.
But now My computer is acting even weirder.
Like my skin is Windows Classic When my computer is Actually Windows XP (Home edition)
And My Speakers.
My volume isnt working.
Music isn't playing but sound effects for example MSN beeping plays but no music.
And My Mater Volume / Volume Control has Dissapered.
Help?

I've had a similar problem, but a bit stranger. About a week ago, I installed a game and everything had been going well. Just a couple days ago though, the sound on my computer speakers won't work. They are plugged in correctly and everything, I even tried them on another pc and they work fine. When I go on Start > Control Panel > Sounds, Speech and Audio Devices > Sounds and Audio Devices Properties ... It says: No Audio Device. After clicking on the Audio Tab, it shows that my default device is: "Modem #0 Line Playback". The other device is: "SB Live! wave device". The SB Live device comes up correctly, but still no sound. And I know that the Modem #0 device is suppose to be the correct device for the speakers. Now, the strange thing about this is, the video game that I had installed has sound. But it is the only game that has it, and nothing else on the computer has sound. Please help, thanks.

i only was able to fix the internal speakers. the external speakers were always OK. See reply 6 to see what I did.
Try reinstalling windows and all the drivers.
I cant offer any more. I will not be following this thread any more.

Watch the documentary Occupation 101 and it will show you step by step on how to fix those speakers. I had a similar problem not to long ago, it's an easy fix. Good Luck and I hope everything works out.

I was able to resolve my problem of only one speaker working when using Windows Media Player by going into Media Player's 'Now Playing'>'Enhancements'>'SRS WOW Effects' and changing the features to 'turn off'. I hope this helps!
