the computer speakers probably need power from the wall. make sure all the plugs are plugged and in correctly. also check to see if headphones work. if the headphones don't work then there is something wrong with the computer
Plug the speakers into a power outlet if they require electricity. Most speakers that use a subwoofer do require a power connection. Step 2Plug the speakers' 3.5mm cable into your laptop's line-out port. This is usually located on the side of your computer and has a headphone image next to it. Step 3Click Start and Control Panel then choose the speaker and hardware option. Step 4Choose the Advanced feature and confirm the type of speakers you're installing. Select Satellite speakers if you are using the standard two speakers, or Surround Sound if using a surround sound setup. Step 5Turn up the volume on your speakers and you are ready to begin enjoying the increased audio output.
your desktop speaker need power supply.
No. The speaker system in laptops is designed to be an either or situation. Either the built or the external speakers, but not both.
