20 Most Recent Dell WL6000 Computer Speakers - Page 9 Questions & Answers

You need drivers for your Audio card. But, to help you find the drivers, you would need to tell me the Model Number of your sound card.
Thanks.

Test this setup with your walkman/ipod.

The most likely problem is in your computer's mixer selection.


Put a CD into your computer drive and play this CD.

If the CD audio output is low then dial up the mixer CD output.

If you do not has audio via CD at all then the CD drive to sound card audio cable is disconnected.

Hi!

Few things to check:
1) The speakers are connected to the GREEN jack on the rear side of the computer (or wherever it is on a laptop).

2) The volume on the speakers themselves is not too low or muted.

3) The sound is not muted through the operating system. If it´s Windows, there should be a speaker icon next toi the computer's clock on the task bar; Make sure it should have a red X or cross over it.

4) The Audio device is installed correctly:
Go to Device Manager and make sure there are no yellow question marks or exclamation marks and that there are no red Xs. If you do have any of those, please specify your motherboard model (or laptop model) so I could try helping you search for the currend audio device driver.

Don't hesitate to consult me if you have any further questions...
Best regards,
Pelu.

well the reason for it not working is becausethe windows lost the speaker's driver so what you need to do is to re-install the driver of the speaker.

speakers do not register themselves as a device. The interface to the speakers is the sound card. Whether this is an add-on module or part of the motherboard, you need sound drivers for it. Make sure you have these installed. You can search for new hardware to get this done automatically. I would recommend Uniblue software which you can download from the internet if you can't get this working. Make sure you back up all your drivers before overwriting any by new ones.

Check your hardware device manager.

To access Device Manager, go to Start | Control Panel | System and Maintenance | System | Device Manager (Device Manager is located under "Tasks" in the left hand column of the "System" menu). A list of hardware will display like the one shown below.

Hardware you expect to find is not listed If you cannot find the hardware you expect to find, it is likely the hardware is installed incorrectly. You should power down your computer and locate the physical hardware on your computer. Verify it is installed correctly, and restart your computer. Once you have restarted your computer, Windows should automatically recognize the hardware and go through an installation process. You may be asked to provide drivers during this installation.
If you verify that the hardware is installed correctly but still does not appear in Device Manager, please contact the DoIT Help Desk.
A yellow exclamation mark appears next to your hardware A yellow exclamation mark next to your hardware means the device is recognized by Windows but is not working properly. This usually indicates a driver problem. Update your drivers by following the directions below.

1. Right-click on the hardware and choose Properties.
2. Click on the Driver tab.
3. Click on Update Driver....
4. Click on Search automatically for updated driver software.
5. Windows will automatically look for updated drivers for your hardware. If unable to find any, you will need to go the hardware manufacturer's website and download new drivers.

A red X appears next to your hardware A red X indicates that the hardware is disabled. Right-click on the hardware and click Enable. Your hardware should no longer have a red X.
If you are still having problems with hardware after you enabled it, please.

crappy thing about speakers...most people are using 1/4 inch plug-in, and computers just don't register them.
If you're SURE about the speakers ("I don't think..." is not sure. Take them to a friend and try them out there), then you might have a faulty plug.
2nd...make sure you have all the volume controls set to high. Windows, media players...look in your hardware and software for anything related to audio, and check to make sure that you don't have some sort of master volume settings on "mute" or something like that.
3rd- take the laptop to a computer store, and see if they can get it to play..they're already set up with playing speakers, and will gladly jump through the ropes for you if they think you're just shopping for a good set for your computer, then help you diagnose the problem if they don't work there.

If everything is grayed out in the audio devices property in the control panel, that means there's a problem with your audio driver, first step I would take is to reboot your machine, hopefully it will come back.

If that fails, most Dell computers come with a Application CD, put the CD in the CD rom drive and have it reload the audio drivers back in.

Also make sure your speakers are plugged into the green port on back of your computer

oxidation.

Turn on the round circle volume on top of the speaker and you will be all set, the reson you are not able to here is because the volume is turn off and there is no marking on the volume control to say weather it sis turned off or on.
No need for drivers.

Visit the support website for DELL and download the sound driver for your model and operating system directly from them.

You probably don't have the right drivers in order to run sound

standard color code for line out is set as green

Your speakers cannot handle the wattage being supplies by your sound card / computer. Either keep the volume lower, or get speakers that are rated for more watts.
