If you moved it or changed anything at all, make sure that the speakers are plugged into the green jack and that they have power. If they have a volume knob, make sure it is turned up.

Next, on the bottom right of the screen, click the speaker icon on the taskbar. Make sure MUTE is not checked, and that the VOLUME control is turned up.

If you still have no sound, go to START>SETTINGS>CONTROL PANEL and open the SOUND icon. Check your settings there- if MUTE is checked on WAV, uncheck it and make sure the volume slider is turned up.

WHAT DOES IT DO I HAVE NO IDEA HOW DOES IT WORK?

A sound card (also known as an audio card) is an internal Computer expansion card that facilitates economical input and output of audio signals to and from a computer under control of computer programs. The term sound card is also applied to external audio interfaces that use software to generate sound, as opposed to using hardware inside the PC. Typical uses of sound cards include providing the audio component for multimedia applications such as music composition, editing video or audio, presentation, education and entertainment (games) and video projection.
Sound functionality can also be integrated onto the motherboard, using components similar to plug-in cards. The best plug-in cards, which use better and more expensive components, can achieve higher quality than integrated sound. The integrated sound system is often still referred to as a "sound card". Sound processing hardware is also present on modern video cards with HDMI to output sound along with the video using that connector; previously they used a SPDIF connection to the motherboard or sound card.

I hope this helps you.

I have a tv screen that i use to play x box,watch movies and use it for a computer but there is no sound on the computer

That sounds like a computer problem, not an Xbox or screen problem. There may be no sound on the computer because it is aware that you are running the sound to another device like external speakers or the speakers in the TV if there are any. There may be a setting in the software of your computers that allows for sound to come out both the computers speakers and any speaker device the computer is feeding sound to.

Trying to connect BA735 speakers to a MacBook? No sound? Are they compatible?

Those speakers were originally supplied with Gateway computer system that had sound cards with digital outputs. While some versions had analog and digital sound inputs, most often the speakers had digital input only. The on-board sound in the eMachines is analog output only, so the speakers are most likely not compatible with your computer. If you want to use those speakers, you will need to locate a PCI sound card with digital output.

It's a matter of the output from the computer's sound card (built-in) being incompatible with the speaker input. The card is sending out analog sound wile the speakers are expecting digital input. Downloading a driver won't help because that doesn't fix the root problem. You need to get speakers designed for analog input, or a sound card with digital output. As it stands now, your computer just can't use those speakers.

Since your using a MacBook there is no option for this Pci Digital Sound Card.

Windows Media Player cannot play the file because there is a problem with your sound device. There might not be a sound device installed on your computer, it might be in use by another program, or it might...

You might encounter this error message for one of the following reasons:
  • Your sound device is in use by another program. Quit other programs that might be using your sound device, and then try to play the file again.
  • Your sound device requires an updated driver. To determine if an updated driver is available, see Windows Update, or see the sound device manufacturer's Web site.
  • The selected sound device does not support Secure Audio Path (SAP). If you have multiple sound devices installed on your computer, try using a different one.
  • Your sound device is not functioning properly. To troubleshoot the problem, see Windows Help and Support or refer to your sound device's documentation.
  • You do not have a sound device installed on your computer. Install a sound device (such as a sound card), and then try to play the file again. If you can't install a sound device in your computer, you might be able to resolve the problem by attaching USB-based headphones or USB-based speakers to your computer instead.
