Depends on the speakers. If your speakers plug into a speaker port on the back of the computer make sure you plug the speaker wire into the green port. Some systems have as many as 6 ports for surround sound but the normal speaker port out is green. If you are using USB speakers you may need a driver for them. You would want to check the website that sells or manufactures the speakers. Good Luck

Probably not your new computer. Mini audio jacks are all the same so probably not connections unless you pulled a wire loose when de-installing and re-installing.

Did you insert the blue tooth USB adapter? I use the speakers with my IMac and have problems. Try Creative web site for tech support.

what u can do is insert your driver disk that comes with the mother board. Do not choose auto install every thing. the scroll down the list of drivers and choose the audio driver and install it.

I would buy longer higher quality cable and check with Best Buy or Fry's about what speakers might be compatible. You also may need a more expensive system.

If you already have speakers, get a receiver or amplifier. Amazon should have an assortment to browse.

Sorry I never use the speakers from the monitor usually they aren't good but you could give a try.

Check all powers and grounds connection then double check and make sure your speakers are wired to the right resistance

Check to see if you have a good connection. Make sure the cable is plugged all the way in and none of the wires are showing or stretched anywhere. Also check for an updated driver. If none of those two work then you probably blew the speakers.

Does your right speaker have an orange power on light when the speakers are powered on? Do you have the connection to your PC in the right slot? This is a fairly simple hook up so if you have power to the speakers, and the connection is in the right slot it is a problem with the speakers, as I assume you had speakers to your PC before and they worked.

I have the same question and there isn't a clear answer with rationale. Can anyone chime in on this? My speakers are not USB powered. They have a dedicated power supply.

Hi Lex I would suggest you get a set of component speakers instead. I'm currently using Rockford Fosgate R1652-S with Blaupunkt THA475PnP.

Check your device manager regarding your sound card. My trouble was bad apeakers on my seven year old dell xp 1500 it works great with my stereo. Also check your sound settings upgrades from microsoft can change settings...i know thats sooo stupid but it does

As far as drivers just google audio drivers for whatever computer you have. Your computer shoud have a 3.5mm jack in the back, same as where your regular speakers would plug into.

No USB speaker connection for a PC. Has the regular headphone connection for regular speakers.

Not sure....When I purchased the speakers, I had a Dell with windows 7. The speakers did not work for my system

My apologies for the long time to respond to this, this is the first time I get asked a question through Amazon. Anyways the power supply worked great for me but the problem could be from the power source or the speakers. So try to test your speaker with the same power supply at another location in your house or a friends house maybe with a portable mp3 player. Also if someone else has the same speakers borrow the power adapter or swap your friend's speakers from the monitor just to test it.

might want to check if your monitor has audio though.. otherwise you will need to find a way to hook up to external speakers..
