I have a similar set of speakers at home from the same company. For the pair i have, they are attached to an amplifier which provides the power to these speakers. without the amplifier, these speakers will not work. Now you can take the speakers to radioshack or a similar company and see if there is an specific type of amplifier that you can buy to work with these speakers, but im not sure if the speakers work at all!
hope this helps! Thumbs up if it did :)

Those Boston digital speakers were supplied with a few Dell models as part of a package. They need a digital input, and the Creative sound card supplied with those models had digital output. Your new Dell only has an analog output which isn't compatible. The speakers aren't seeing any input signal. If you want to keep those speakers, you'll either need to take the sound card from your old Dell (if you still have it) and install that in your new computer, or buy a sound card with digital output.

is possible. or in sistem board the speaker is off because de batery is down.

Hello k andrew, hi, check to see if the computer has detected the sound card circuit, usually on the system list of hard ware devices. if not need to install sound driver. On windows 7 right click my computer . properties . device manager.

You can download the drive from internet by the model number you have

Hello,

The problem is from the windows 7 you install, the windows 7 is not compatible with your Boston Accoustics digital speakers, because if it is, with the upgrade you did, it should work.

The best bet is, you will need to re-install xp if you need the sound from your speaker, but before you re-install windows xp, i will suggest you uninstall windows 7 and re-install, if it did not solve the problem. re-install windows xp.

Take care.
