patr0510 0 Report post Posted January 9, 2007 I thought computer speakers were a plug and play type of deal. I just had my PC cleaned. I plug in the speakers and nothing happens. Yes, they are plugged in. And the power button is on. Under my audio devices in the control panel it says there are no devices. Wondering how to solve this.Thanks.

RadioGaGa 162 Report post Posted January 9, 2007 Since I'm computer retarded, how do I do that, or can I?Do you have the CD that came with your Sound card? Or if you have an onboard card...do you have the disc that came with your computer. The drivers should be on there.It should autorun, and ask what device/function you are trying to install/update.

Alias81 0 Report post Posted January 9, 2007 Thanks for the tip RadioGaGa, I've been listening to the occasional beep from my tower for about 6 months now because I'm too lazy to figure out how to do it. :D Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

sdcopp 1 Report post Posted January 9, 2007 sorry, motherboard. Some sound cards come already on the motherboard instead of as a standalone product plugged in later. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

sdcopp 1 Report post Posted January 9, 2007 http://support.asus.com/download/download....model=P4S800-MXhere's the link to the drivers from ASUS. If you're only using the onboard audio this should help once you download and restart Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
