Question and Answers

eeeh...?!?! How can I make my computer/speakers louder? - eeeh...?!?! Ok so my computer speakers are soft and I can barely here the noise coming from it unless it's silent in my house. Everything dealing with sound adjustments on my monitor are all turned completely up but that didn't do anything to really fix the sound. There is no volume knob on the speakers to make it louder and so I would really appreciate it if someone could help me fix it. Also I'm not sure if this would be helpful or not but my cpu and printer are both hp, my monitor itself is a old version dell monitor with the windows vista program, and my speakers are a old version polk audio speaker. my dad had set all of this up and replaced the old monitor and printer after the lightning storm busted them up and he can't figure out either as to why the volume is so low someone please help.
Best Answer: You say all the adjustments on your monitor are turned up. Do you mean in the audio adjustments in your computer? Your monitor (picture display) won't affect your sound. Go to the Start button, Settings, Control Panel. Find Sounds and Audio Devices and go through everything there and make sure all the volume controls in it are up. If something is turned down it will reduce your sound volume from your speakers. Set them to the level you want. There may also be a sound control in the task bar at the lower right corner. This should bring up your volume controls. - wires
Some computers put out a tiny signal and others put out a stronger signal when it comes to volume of sound. I have two lap tops. At full on settings one of them puts out a little sound on the headphones. The other could blast your ears off. - iplaymusicforu
