The link below may have your driver as requested. Found the MANUAL too.. It may help you somehow I hope with informtion printed in it

In order for this to work, you will need an external amplifier. Your receiver is set up to use a "powered" sub. With only speaker connections on the sub, it is a "passive" sub requiring a separate amp.

shouldn't need it for speakers. you do however need one for the sound card on your computer. if the speakers were an upgrade and you know the sound card works... check that it is plugged into the proper hole at the back of the computer and that there is power to the speakers.

Well, I solved the problem this way, after having gone into a loop of discussionwith "bunnydog." I took the cable set back to the retailer and then I trashed the subwoofer. Problem solved. I have no further need of your assistance.

Look at the plug.... is it metal then a little band and then the tip or is it metal a band then metal and then the tip.

I have found the link for your instructions www2.yamaha.co.jp/manual/pdf/av/english/pcS/YST-MSW10.pdf

ok the only issue i see causing the problem if stereo headphones work directly on the laptop is that you are running stereo to mono and maybe back again. it did occur to me as well... why are you using a Y plug.

Robert

ok single band is mono... double band is stereo... if you have headphones that are mono try them on the pc... then stereo are next. let me know which one works

This problem can be solved by either of the following:
1/ Modify the PCBA to prevent the auto shut off feature from working. This is done by adding a 20k ohm resistor across pins 1 & 2 on the timer IC6. This resistor will prevent the timer from turning off the amp. To do this, unplug the amp. Remove the 8 screws on the perimeter of the rear of the amp. Carefully remove the rear plate. Disconnect the speaker wires at the speaker and the front panel connection on the main board. Locate IC6 on the bottom of the main board. Solder a 20k ohm resistor (1/4W) across pins 1 & 2. Pin 1 and Pin 8 are noted on the board. Be sure to insulate the leads of the resistor to prevent contact with the board. See picture. Re-assemble in reverse order.
2/ Some 5.1 channel amps allow independent control of the volume for the subwoofer in their setup. Check your amp to see if you can raise the signal level going to the subwoofer to prevent the amp from shutting off. You can then dial back the volume of the subwoofer using the volume control on the front.

sounds like a fuse is getting overheated and tripped or to loud, check your volume settings again.

"Opening" ... Please explain what you mean.

I expect there is either a power supply issue or one of the amplifiers has failed causing over current to turn it off as a protection to the power supply.

WD-40 ... Very dangerous as it not only flammable when wet but is bad for electrical contacts as it leaves a residue behind that does not conduct electricity very well. Check speaker connections first.

You must repair the amplifier first. Take it to an authorised Yamaha service centre.

Follow the procedure as given in following link. RX-V6A ' ENJOYING IN MULTIPLE ROOMS (ZONES) (yamaha.com)

Question edited for clarity, full make model (what it is)'. Question moved to Yamaha Audio. It may be sympathetic vibration and is coming from something nearby. Put it on a folded towel or sit in the floor to test it. https://www.google.com/search?q=YST-FSW050+bad+vibration ..

Being from 1985 or there abouts, it probably needs some TLC at a Yamaha service centre. May need new capacitors and resolder dry joints for age related issues.

Yes if it has a suitable speaker connection available and is nominally 8 ohms impedance Speaker and AV.
