Hi,

If the sliders are all the way up in the Windows or soundcard mixer,

you'll have to use more powerful speakers. You can access the mixer by

double-clicking on the small speaker in system tray on the right side of

the taskbar, if it's not there, you must go to the sound properties in

the control panel and in the volume tab, make sure that "put the volume

icon in the taskbar" is checked (approximate translation, my Windows is

in French).

 

Sometimes on laptops there are keys on the keyboard to control the

volume, on my Acer it's "<Fn>+<up arrow>.

 

Sometimes, my laptop sound line out is connected to 450 watts RMS stage

monitors and that can be VERY VERY DANGEROUSLY LOUD.
