Left speaker won't work

[Guest Docient]

Can't get my left speaker to work, and the right one isn't real strong or

clear.

 

Have tried all the volume and balance settings.

 

Have tried 2 different sound cards. One on board, the other a PCI, which is

new.

 

Have tried 3 different sets of speakers. Two sets of which are new.

 

Any ideas?

No aside from checking the wires which you keep using on all your speakers when you change them and/or reversing the connection and this post does not belong here in this newsgroup

I am using only the wires supplied with each speaker set, so they are always

different.

 

Why would this question not belong here. It is an XP problem.

It's possible that the jack on the sound card or motherboard is either

making only partial contact, as in defective, or possibly partially

unsoldered.

 

If it's an individual sound card you need to remove it and check the output

jack. If it's the motherboard it is usually easier to insert an external

sound card and turn off the internal sound system at the motherboard's BIOS

settings.

I have tried the on board sound card, as well as a PCI plug in board. Both

have the same problem.

 

Device Manager reports no conflicts. Driver for both sound cards are signed

my Microsoft.

 

All elements of Microsoft sound trouble shooter program were unsuccessful.

 

All sliders are centered or maxed.

1st, how can we be certain it was a hardware problem

 

2nd, it was posted to different groups, but all relevant, and not cross

posted.

 

The problem has been resolved. Apparently it was a software issue.

The second install of the plug in card was sucessful.
