I just got a hand me down laptop from my grandfather, and I can't hear audio from it. I plugged headphones in and that works fine, but other than that, the audio from the speakers doesn't work. I've tried going into the control panel and nothing I seem to do works. Can anyone help?
Are you use computer speakers or speakers that have an amplifier with them? A computer audio out is not speaker level. It's much to low to drive speakers without an amplifier. It can drive headphones and the line-in to an amplifier but not speakers directly.
