my pc speakers went recently..i got new ones but theres no 'playback' or sound device detected..so wtf do i do now?lol

Speakers have nothing to do with your soundcard...

Besides the fact that they plugin to it.

I don't quite understand whats going on?

like i can hear my computer running thru the speakers..cuz it hums n buzzes n whatever..but then when i go 2 open a music file it wont play at all juz sit there..and i went 2 my control panel and it said No Sound Device Detected..and i cant play music@all on anything...myspace,windows media player...nothin..so idk man..

try going through add hardware in control panel

tell me how that goes

ye i tried that and it still dont work

-cracks knuckles-

Go to control panel > system > hardware > device manager >
>sound video and game devices

Than right click for hardware changes, tell me the results, and keep it up

ok what am i lookin 4..?cuz all it seemd 2 do was refresh the device manager

right did anything show up? under sound devices?

Does your soundcard show up in there?

Basically if your soundcard shows up in there go to properties on that particular driver
,and see if it says this device is working properly

Lol N00bs. Listen, i Had This Problem Before, Speaker Tests Were Working, But Nothing Else. if u Have ur Mic Plugged in it Could Be a Hardware Conflict. So To Check This Out; Right Click On Speaker (Volume Control) -> Adjust Audio Properties --> Click The Audio Tab, And Check What ur Playing Back On, if it Says its ur Speakers And They\'re Fully Operational, Forget That. Do What Complexity Said, Search For Red Triangles in ur List Of Hardwares Which Means a Conflict And Drivers Will Be Getting Mixed Up. if u Dont Find That, Here\'s a Story. The Same Week My Speakers Fucked i Was Playing With an IP Changer i Downloaded, And Foolishly Kicked Myself Off The Net. So i System Restored To The Previous Week. OH SNAP, Speakers Worked.

it says updateing software cannot be found

the speaker volume tab isnt even lite up 4 me 2 click on it

Read everything over again. I edited my message like right after I posted it. Lol

ok lol

Last resort. Take a screenshot of your hardware panel with the sound devices open. Uninstall your soundcard and restart the computer.

nope..nothin worked..lol maybe i needa new soundcard?cuz i cant even playmusic at all on anything..it just says loading the whole time soo idk
