  • what motherboard/soundcard/onboard sound do you have? Have you installed any other hardware in your pc and what graphics card have you got - oh and how are you connecting the pc to the tv?

    click on start bottom left, then look for control panel, click on it to open it, then look for an icon that looks like a speaker called sounds and audio devices, click on that icon to open it, then click on the audio tab, then sound playback first one in the list, below the default device you will see a volume button but next to it you will see an advanced button, click on advanced button, then look for the performance tab click on that look at the two sliders hardware accleration and the one below it called sample rate conversion, make sure both sliders are set to full.

    Have you connected to the correct speaker port? Normally there are 3 - 6 ports
    If its coloured then put it in the green port.

    have you checked my posting regarding sound accleration? sounds like you may have the slider set only half way instead of full
