speaker cuts out
I think I know the answer to this problem but I'm looking for an easy
fix ... My left computer speaker cuts out. I've changed speakers and get the same problem and I can solve it by unplugging the speaker cable from my computer and replugging it. I've cleaned out the speaker outlet on my computer and still have the same problem. I imagine the next step is to replace the sound card (a slight expense and a slight hassle). Any things I should try first? Thank you! Best wishes, Bill |

Any things I should try first? Yes. unplug your computer from the mains. Carefully remove the sound card and replug it. Making sure the contacts on the card, and Mboard are clean. That bit is free, and might help your problem. -- bw..OJ |

Could be the cable or the sound card jack. I've cleaned out the speaker outlet on my computer and still have the same problem. I imagine the next step is to replace the sound card (a slight expense and a slight hassle). Any things I should try first? You could try a different cable and take the sound card out and examine the jack including the solder pads on the back of it (in case the solder was bad or stress has pulled the socket up). If your case has a metal piece intefering with the cable plugging into the sound card fully, you might try slightly repositioning the card so the cable plug seats in the socket better. |
