How do I get my speakers to work?

HI, I was just wondering, how to get my speakers to work. my comp. is kinda old but in good shape. it says its a Dell Dimension XPS R350. my speakers are harman/kardon. i don't know if this matters or not... i'm not really comp. savy and don't have any software or anything that came w/ it b/c its my parents old computer. I know that they are plugged in correctly (the colors match up!)I'd really love to listen to my music when I'm studying!! :) thanks.

Hi. You probably need to load the sound drivers for your computer. Here is the Link to Dell's driver for your model:

Download them to your desktop and then press "Start" "Run" and "Browse" to your desktop and the file you downloaded. then click "OK" and follow the directions on your screen. Hope this helps

1) update/install your sound drivers.
2) As mentioned above, check to make sure you have power to the speakers and that the volume is turned up.
3) check "Sound" in your control panel and make sure you don't have it muted.

I know this sounds silly but is there an on and off switch on the speakers
