| 844540 | 2009-12-31 07:08:00 | the sound on PC is really quiet even though the sound meter is at 100% i am using the built in audio in my gigabyte p55 ud4p motherboard i have uninstalled and reinstalled the driver but with no luck the headphone jack seems to work fine except for a nasty crackle in the background which i believe is an unrelated issue but the rear audio panel seems unable to power the speakers ( i have used the speakers in my laptop so they do work fine, the speakers do not have a amplifier plugged in ) any advice is appreciated. | smithinator (15240) | ||
| 844541 | 2009-12-31 07:13:00 | Where you mention rear panel power the speakers - is that the only power source ? A LOT of speakers need their own power source, Eg: plugged into the mains. HP's speakers come to mind - some work fine with the appropriate HP PC, but when plugged into another PC they are only just audible even at full volume. |

| 844542 | 2009-12-31 07:13:00 | So how do the speakers work on the laptop then? Are they USB? | Speedy Gonzales (78) | ||
| 844543 | 2009-12-31 07:16:00 | These speakers don't have a power source just a plug into the audio jack, they are a portable set designed for mp3 players, are computers speakers normally amplified? | smithinator (15240) | ||
| 844544 | 2009-12-31 07:19:00 | Most desktop speakers are powered, unless theyre USB | Speedy Gonzales (78) | ||
| 844545 | 2009-12-31 07:26:00 | so to work properly they will need an amplifier plugged in? | smithinator (15240) | ||
| 844546 | 2009-12-31 07:32:00 | Or need to run by power | Speedy Gonzales (78) | ||
| 844547 | 2009-12-31 07:38:00 | thanks for the help, what could be causing the crackling in the headphone jack? i tried reconnecting the plug but it didn't work could it be something internally interfering with it? | smithinator (15240) | ||

The audio output from your computer is not amplified, you need a set of computer speakers with built-in amplifier (a set of speakers only, will not work, as you have found). Not surprising you have no volume :stare:. |
