- Your speaker must be plugged into the GREEN
socket.
- Pull the plug out and push it all the way in. Oxidation on the plugs can make
them lose contact.
- There is a position where they can appear to be pushed in but are not far enough
in.
- Have you ever tried these speakers with that sound card? Some sound cards have
enough output to drive passive speakers. I remember when I went to a new sound card
and got virtually no sound out and found it had to be paired with amplified speakers.
- Check Start > Settings > Control Panel > System > Device Manager > Sound &
Game Controller . Take a look at the Properties. That will tell you
if the driver is enabled. See if the driver matches the sound card. Mine says Soundblaster
PCI which is right because I have a Soundblaster PCI card.
- Press F8 while starting up and take a look thru your CMOS settings. Is
there a check to switch between an onboard sound chip and a separate sound card?
