If your computer came with a motherboard disc the sound drivers could be on it
click start control panel administrive tools computer management device manager scroll to sound,video and game controllers you might see a yellow question exclamation mark? ! or a red X Right click to reinstall drivers
click start control panel sounds and audio,volume,advanced,speakers make sure you have selected the

also
click start control panel sounds and audio devices select advanced there might be a tick in the mute box untick it
if his does not fix the problem

the speakers plug/outlet is usually at the back of the computer you will have to open up the computer to check the lead attached to the rear of the input plug make sure the connection is good
try cleaning your computer of dust using a fine air blower from a compressor making VERY sure that there is no MOISTURE in the air line specifically around the sound card and the CPU central processing unit dust causes static to build up in a computer
hope this helps you
if you dont have a motherboard disc you will have to download the drivers

Trying to get my Labtec to work. Computer does not see it.

If you are taking the sound output from the green output socket on the back of your tower, then your speakers must be powered by a mains adapter.
You will have a black main adapter similar to a mobile phone charger, and the output from that on a thin wire will plug into one of your speakers, normally the one with the volume control on it.
To test if the speakers are powered up and working, plug an MP3 player into the green plug that goes to the speakers, does that play ok?

How do i hook up logitech speakers #z313 to my desktop i need a diagram

Phone jack on woofer goes into computer tower (should be color coded green) and power cable on woofer plugs into 120VAC. Speaker phone jack plugs into back of woofer. The speaker cable has an on-off switch and volume control as well as a phone jack for your headset.

I've hooked up all the speakers. NOTE: I didn't read the instructions, as they are lost and I recently moved. I'm sure everything is right, I've read on here about this problem. I have the pea-green,...

Typically:

Lime green (pea-green) is front speakers.
Orange is for center speakers and sub-woofer.
Black is for rear speakers.

Pink is for microphone in.
Blue is for line in (MIDI or similar).

Should be a green line out wire that plugs into the green port on your sound chip / sound card and into a 2.5mm jack on the rear of the monitor, can get one of these dirt cheap from maplins/ radio shack

Speakers don't work on new computer

its most likely a driver issue make sure that when they get plugged in there is some sort of conformation either on the computer or on the speakers with a light now thats you have ensured they are getting power check both ends of the speaker wire ensure neither the wire or the inputs for the wire are damaged there should be little or no play for the wire to move after being inserted . after ensuring that it not a hardware issue(to really be thorough you could hook them up to another computer and make sure after the moving process they still work) I would suggest going to the HP website and walking through they're troubleshooting mnual if still to no avail and they are under warranty just return them for new ones

Can I use mediamate speakers I had on my desk top on my laptop that runs vista? I have them plugged in and it sounds terrible...I have always had a problem with these speakers being very crackly and...

No it is not fixed, I think it has to do with the wires and plug that goes into the tower, when I move the plug in the tower around I get good sound, can't fiddle around all day with wires,and holding the plug in a specific location, I think they are junk... and I don't think the speakers justify spending money on trouble shooting!
