Checking your sound source
You may believe that the speakers are not working, when, in fact, the sound source may be the problem. When connecting to a computer, the most common problem is an incorrect connection. Make sure that you are connected to the audio output jack from your computer sound card (usually green). Also, make sure that your CD or DVD drive is playing and the volume settings are turned up and not muted. If you still have problems, disconnect the speaker source cable from your computer and connect it to any device with a mini headphone jack, such as a digital music player. If your speakers work on the other source, the speakers are functioning correctly and the problem is in your computer or the connections.
