Troubleshooting
Speakers
Why won't my speakers work?
❑ Make sure the speakers are properly connected and the volume is turned up loud enough to hear sound.
❑ Your speakers may not be designed for computer use.
❑ If the speakers have a muting button, set the button to off.
❑ If the speakers have a volume control, make sure the volume is turned up loud enough to hear sound.
❑ If you have connected an audio cable to the Headphones jack, disconnect the cable and use the speaker cable that was
supplied with the speakers.
❑ If you are using battery power, make sure the battery is installed properly and is charged.
❑ If the speakers require external power, make sure the speakers are connected to a power source. See the manual that
came with the speakers for more information.
Why can't I hear sound from my speakers?
❑ If the computer is using battery power, make sure the battery is properly installed and is charged.
❑ If you are using a program that has its own volume control, make sure the volume control is properly set. See that
program's help file for more information.
❑ The speaker volume may be turned off, the volume setting may be too low, or the audio option may be disabled.
❑ Check the volume controls in Windows.
❑ If Audio/Modem is disabled on VAIO Power Management power scheme settings, enable the option. See Activating
VAIO Power Management Power Schemes (page 140) for the procedure.
