    Your digital audio cable is loose, try to tilt it gently, bend it or push it in more.

  • Question
    How can you replace internal speakers inside a laptop?
    Community Answer
    Community Answer
    If you wanted to get rid of the internal speakers, you'd have to do some DIY, which would involve working some components. That's not exactly the easiest thing to do on a laptop, but if you simply connected speakers externally (into a speaker port that should be on the left or right side of the laptop), the external speakers will override the internal speakers.

    Check that their drivers are installed properly. If they're not, try to install them correctly. That should fix the issue.

  • Question
    This is a problem with my speaker wire. Every time I move it, it stops making noise. I tried to find the wire problem and used heat-shrink tubing to cover it. It still does not work. What can I do?

    Take it to your nearest hardware store, or you can open it and fix the damaged wire, if you know how.

  • Question
    What if the power is not being supplied to the speakers?
    Community Answer
    Community Answer
    Take some batteries. You will need to glue the batteries to the inside of the speaker. This will cause the speaker to take power off of the battery.
