There are independent controls for your system volume.
❑ Check that the speakers are plugged into the Headphones jack.
❑ If the speakers have a mute button, make sure it is off.
❑ If the speakers are powered by batteries, check that the batteries are inserted
properly and that they are charged.
❑ If the speakers use an external power source, make sure that the power cord
is plugged into a grounded wall outlet or power strip.
❑ If the speakers have their own volume control, check the volume level.
❑ If the program you are using has its own volume control, check that the
volume is turned up.
❑ Check the volume controls in the application, in the audio mixer, and in
Windows. There is a volume control icon on the Windows
®
taskbar. Click
the icon and slide the level bar up to increase the volume.
❑ Check that the Mute check box is not selected in the Windows volume
control .
❑ If you connected headphones to the computer, you will not hear sound from
the speakers.
