Re: Only 2 speakers working. coloured cables don't match...
Not all computers have outputs for those speakers (numbre of channels), most of them only have one output (green), you need a sound card and disable the bios audio system.

Um, didn't get all the jacks meaning that you don't have the yellow, green, and black cables that run from your speakers to your computer, or the jacks on the speakers themselves? You can go to Logitech's website and find the cable I'm sure, about how much it will cost, can't exactly say but possibly not cheap.. other solution is to go to walmart, kmart, radio shack, anywhere they sell electronics, and get yourself three audio cables with 1/8 in jacks on both ends... then just match colors and connect!

> 3 pin female port is for power cable for Computer Tower
>3 pin male power cable is for monitor
> Purple and green colour port is for Keyboard and mouse if they are ps2 (round connector) if usb then connect in any usb port.
>Small 3 colour ports Pink,Green,Blue is for sound.Connect only the Green colour cable coming from speaker to green port
>Connect the speaker Adapter cable to the wall socket for supplying power to speakers.

Well i sometimes go through alot of troubleshooting just to find its the most simple thing in the end.
Start at the source. Check if the green audio cable is plugged into the correct audio jack on the pc. Colours match up. (green with green) And if that doest work check that the Pc isnt on mute.
To check this, there is a icon of a speaker on the task bar on the bottom right of the screen.
And if all this has been done and u still have no sound, plugg the speakers into a ipod or a similar device to see that the speakers actually do work. turn the volume up and down as well.
the power feeds go to 1 block
get a test lamp and find the
switched live = goes to red
constent live = goes to yellow
ground earth = goes to black
speakers and dash display to 2nd block
speaker leads are matched in coloured pairs , use 9v battery to each pair to track speaker location, will buzz when hooked up to matched pair
the speakers should have a stereo jack on a wire which would be the out put, if it is a surround sound speaker system then it most likely will have a few wires, if your computer has only one stereo jack input then the green cable would be the one you would connect in most cases, if it has 3 or 6 then you would follow the colour on the jacks and match them up with the input on your computer. if you have done all this and doesnt work check if there is audio icon in the bottom left task bar and if you can use other speakers, if you can everthing should work, if not then check for drivers online.
