any large retail store like a department store that sells any kind of computer stuff should have some in stock.  I know in the states a LOT of people use an online store called Newegg.com.  I don't know if it delivers there but they have pretty decent prices if they do.  All sound cards are easy to install as they are all installed the same way and come with instructions on how to do it.  I would personally look for on from Creative Labs called the X-Fi Xtreme music.  It may not be the cheapest but it's come down a LOT in price and it's really versitile (gaming, music, music editing and such) and has some of the best sound and features possible.  I can almost guarantee you that it will have better prices online than in a store.

If you're running Windows, you can use the Sound Recorder. Located under the Start Menu > Accessories > Entertainment. It comes with Windows so you don't need to pay more.

If your PC has onboard sound, it may already be surround sound ready. Look at your mobo manual. If you dont have it, download it from the mfgs site.

The sound quality will be completely determined by your computer speakers.  Laptop computers have notoriously bad speaker sound.  I would recommend getting mid level speakers (don't spend $5, but $25 should do the trick) and plug them into your audio output.  Your laptop should have a microphone input and an audio output on the side.  That is what I mean.\n\nGood luck.

Press CTRL + ALT + DEL ..\n\nNo im kidding. \n\nYou being able to hear people and them not being able to hear you doesnt have anything to do with what the best sound card for your computer is, your best bet is usually TA-DA Soundblaster. You probably have your volume settings on MUTE for the microphone.. Duh.

Goto the link I provided and click Start Detection in the center of the page.  It will detect your system.  Then get the latest drivers for you sound then install them.\n\n- Check hardware profiles under System in control panel and be sure its not disabled.\n\n- Check your bios to make sure its not turned off.\n\nIts probably integrated but if its not then take the side of the system and check to be sure its seated correctly in its slot.\n\nIf these do not work, restore the system.\n\nIf none work, sound card may be bad.

You need to install drivers for your sound card.\n\nIf you know what sound card you have you can go to the manufacturer's website and get the latest drivers from there. If you have on-board sound card refer to your motherboard manual/documentation.

Go your sound card's manufacturer's website and download the latest drivers for it. If it's on-board sound, then the motherboard manufacturer is also the sound card's manufacturer

Check your sound card software.if you are using intel motherboard then "soundmax" may be the culprit.

Yeah, you'll get the best sound, and the most output from any sub, by placing them on the floor.  The closer you place it to a wall, the better.  And of course, a corner is even better, since that's two walls, plus the floor.  \n\nMost of us just put our computer's sub/subs on the floor, below our monitors, and within a couple of inches of the wall behind it.

Try going to Control Panel and adjust the sound settings

My Toshiba has harman/kardon and the speakers are great. If you want something really loud though, just add externals. Funny coz I had a hard time looking for harman/kardon speakers so I ended up with altec lansing. I've always used altec lansing for externals but when I bought my laptop I was impressed with the speakers so I tried to look for harman. \nMy Toshiba is working so well too. I can't say anything about laptop HP's though coz I don't have one, but my desktop HP is still working great after two years with no problems whatsoever.

you first need to know what sound card you have. go to the computer manufacturer's website and go to their downloads section and type in your computer model and number. i.e. presario 5786\nthey should have the specs on your computer, they may even ohave the drivers for your sound card. if they don't write down your sound card's information then go to the sound's card's manufacturer's website to get the drivers. if they don't hav e it, use google to find the drivers you need and download. never underestimate the power fo a good search engine

Most monitors don't support sound. Your best bet is to spend $20 or so and buy some cheap powered speakers at Wal-Mart or the like.
