I went to the site that I believe Blufindr put the link to, and downloaded the correct audio drivers and installed them.  I still however am getting no sound from my speakers.  I have checked the connections, the power is on, the volume is turned up, and it is properly connected to the computer.  I still however don't know why I'm not able to get sound.

Replies the real anti christ Posted at 10:36 am on Oct. 21, 2008 When you view your sound manager in control panel are all the sound controls gray? or can you adjust them? Does your hardware manager say that your sound card is working properly? sakurag Posted at 8:48 am on Oct. 21, 2008 Hm. First go into a program that would use sound and show you a 'mixer' or 'volume' bar.  I think that the Sound Mixer in Windows, Tuning Wizard in WLM or whatever will work.  Run a sample sound and see if the bars are moving.  If they are, good. Otherwise, go into Device Manager (devmgmt.msc) and see if your sound card is listed there as working.  Make sure you don't see a ( ! )..  Okay, that's there, good. Now I know some sound cards have gotten weird and have settings.  You'll probably find this in Program Files or in your Start Menu.  Go open this up.. make sure the audio is not muted.  Sometimes this happens.  Also make sure that the input/outputs are setup to the right audio jacks.  Sometimes they have one in the front and one in the back. Okay, so what if this doesn't work.  Take your speakers, plug them into your ipod.  Does this work?  No?  Your speakers are dead. Yes?  PM me.

Do you have a specialty audio card installed? If so is it running correctly? Just look around through all the audio controls and make sure everything is turned up/ set correctly thats really all I can do for you from here, sorry andrethebest1 Posted at 8:14 pm on Oct. 18, 2008 Post from this position was omitted due to content violations Themakingofagod Posted at 8:12 pm on Oct. 18, 2008 Yes, they are properly configured. blufindr Posted at 8:10 pm on Oct. 18, 2008 Quote: from Themakingofagod at 1:05 pm on Oct. 19, 2008 Quote: from blufindr at 11:03 pm on Oct. 18, 2008 What speakers do you have? Midiland. I can tell you were on the right track about the drivers though, those are the same drivers I had before, I just didn't know what they were called. Then I don't know what's wrong with your computer. Ask a computer tech person? Aranil Posted at 8:09 pm on Oct. 18, 2008 go to Control Panel --> Sounds and Audio Devices -> Volume tab --> Advanced button then pick the setting that fits what you have Themakingofagod Posted at 8:06 pm on Oct. 18, 2008 Quote: from Aranil at 11:05 pm on Oct. 18, 2008 did you check that you had the right speaker configuration enabled?

They worked 4 hours ago when I had my old version of windows, I HIGHLY doubt between this time and now they burned out. blufindr Posted at 8:03 pm on Oct. 18, 2008 What speakers do you have? raza301 Posted at 8:03 pm on Oct. 18, 2008 maybe your speakers fuses burned out? Themakingofagod Posted at 8:00 pm on Oct. 18, 2008 Already did when I installed the drivers. hawaiinchuck Posted at 8:00 pm on Oct. 18, 2008 Maybe restart the computer?
