Using Boston Acoustic speakers on new Computer

[Lyle Beach]

Hello,

I just bought a new computer. And I would like to use my Boston Acoustic Speakers from my old computer on the new one.

The new computer came with some crappy speakers, and I would prefer to use my Boston Digital BA735

For some reason, I can't get the Bostons to work on the new computer.

Here is the specs for the new computer: http://www.gateway.com/home/products/ret/ret_gt5028.shtml

Seems the new computer is using Realtek AC'97 Audio

Old computer was using Soundblaster Live! Value

Any help?

Cheers,

Lyle

I just found this: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/302710/EN-US

But I still don't know how to fix my problem.

by the way, I also made sure that it wasn't on mute. And that the output was switched to digital output only.

The sound works fine when I use the analog speakers or the headphones. Just not with My Boston Digital BA735's.

Turn off digital output only. That is only used for "digital" surround sound systems with decoders in them.
