Try using a pair of head phones to see if you can plug them directly into
the jack and hear anything? Is the onboard sound enabled/working on the
device manager? Last guess if it's not software is that while transfering
the motherboard the sound chips were somehow touched and messed up or
something...
HTH, D!J!X!

Subject: [ddots-l] Computer speakers quit working
My client, Nick Baker, recently had a new computer case put on his PC, and
suddenly we're getting no sound from the PC speakers, which he uses for the
system, JAWS, internet, and media player audio.
The speakers hooked to the M-Audio Audiophile still work fine for his
Caketalking project audio, so we've got JAWS speaking through these for now,
but working on projects is troublesome this way.
We checked and double-checked all connections, went through the device
manager for his sound system settings, ran the troubleshooter, checked
connections both inside and out again, restored the system to before the
installation of the case, checked the system volume to make sure it didn't
somehow get muted, etc. - still no sound from the PC speakers. The speakers
have power, the green power light is on, and we do hear the expected
clicking sound when tapping on the end of the speaker jack. Same sound
card, same cables, same everything, except it's a brand new box.
Everything else with the computer works fine, and it's a nice brand new
case. How could changing the computer case suddenly cause the PC speakers
to quit producing sound? What more can we do to troubleshoot this?
