My sound system

**cardiodan** · 08-13-2008, 03:24 PM

Whatsup everyone!!
I don't know why, but my sound system is barely audible.
It's more audible with headphones, but not quite.

All the volume controls are on high, and so is the speaker.

What's wrong?

Thanks!

When you say the "controls" are up , are you talking about the knob on the speakers ?

Check windows (98/XP)
Start/ Control Panel / Sound and Audio devices
Make sure the setting is turned on there. If it is, click advanced tab and see if they are muted.

either that or the port is bad

To test the port plug in headphones and see if you hear sound.

What type of speakers are you using ? surround system ? 6.1 ? 7.1 ? 8.1 ? some details please...

And also make sure that your audio card that you have installed supports it.

Example: If you have a sound card that is " creative " that's a old model and only supports up to 3.1 , you cant go and buy a surround system that is 7.1 and expect it to work.

Anyway make sure and let us know whats going on.

I was thinkin virtually the samething but I'd substitute slappy for retard.

Also if you (Blackhat) feel the desire to help people out with their computer problems join the windows vista board or something and reply to the million threads on there.

Slappy or not i dont really give a shit about what you think, maybe someone else has a problem and reads the reply and gets some info out of it.

If you dont like it then dont read it, and i can help people wherever i want to, and i prefer to do it here while i get to look at my diet info at the same time
