Solve : No sound from Dell 3000?

Answer»

I am working on a Dimension 3000 and the sound is not working. This is what I have done:
Replaced the speakers with small usb powered units that are known working
Re-installed the audio drivers from Dell(Legacy audio and Soundmax Integrated)
checked all settings in CP/device mgr
This is an XP HOME os with 1 gb ram. It does not play music from the cd or systems sounds, but I do hear a hiss from the speakers when I increase the volume.
BTW, it does not have a sound card, just the mb pci
Thanks Did it work before and on what set of speakers?

Have you tried USING amplified computer speakers and hooking it on line-in jack(usually lime green)?
You COULD also check for the documentation of your PC or by SEARCHING online for the manual of the particular model.The original speakers were amplified and used to work, but I don't have any history since it is a FAMILY member's system...of course I plugged them into the green port...lolWhat you should have tried first is using the same type of speakers maybe borrowing one to test the audio port instead of a usb powered speakers.
