Find out the model name and number, then try googling the information. Just because they are plugged in, doesnt mean they should work. You need to get either the sound drivers or audio bus drivers for it. Just Google it.

You probably need to install the audio card/sound card drivers. If you can come back with the Model of your PC, i may be able to assist you further. I would recommend going to the website of your computer manufacturer and look in support/drivers.

First click start right click on my computer and click properties go to hardware and options you should see a list of hardware installed, if there are any error images on some of the sound hardware there is a sound DRIVER error and you will need to re download and install your computers specific driver

Hope This Helps.

There may be a problem with it. Did you download something that possibly could have caused your laptop to slow down? Did your computer crash? You could shut off and turn on your laptop again. Or maybe just the speakers are broke, worn out, and need to be replaced. If nothing works, you might have to either get a new laptop, or see someone at the store you got it at.

Your question is a little vague. Most speakers and headphones do not have a data connection to a computer, only electrical. Thus they will not show up in the Device Manager

How do you fix a broken phone jack?

I had the exact same problem If your headphones jack doesn't work but your speakers do, Here's how you fix it First, check windows updates and install any missing drivers. Then restart it ONLY when windows update tells you to. Dont attempt to turn your computer off during startup just let it finish updating. then when your computer has finished logging in it should work. If it doesnt, go to control panel then sound and select headphone and click install. If it says headphones not plugged in the is another alternative but only do it if you're completely out of warranty and if you know what you're doing you can open your laptop (i suggest you find a manual online) get a soldering iron and open the headphones jack from the inside and shift the solder wires back into place if the wires are cut, or you do not know how to do it, i suggest you find a technician


Why can't i hear my videos on my facebook page?

There is no way of turning off sound on a page, First i would check to see if it's just facebook and it doesnt have to do with your computer / volume / or speakers. if it is just facebook, i would try closing and re-opening your browser (or just close and re-open the facebook tab) if that doesnt work try loging out and back on (to your computer, not facebook). If it still doesnt work something isn't working right, i would try to contact facebook or check out there help page.
