My computer (HP Compaq dc7700p Convertible Minitower) no longer recognizes my speakers. When I turned on my old ones, I could hear faint sound coming out of the subwoofer, but no sound from the speakers. I thought they were shot so I bought a new set today but those don't work either! I reinstalled the Realtek sound driver off the HP website but still nothing. What's odd is that when I plug in my USB headset I can get sound from that.
When I go to the Control Panel and go to Sound and Audio Devices, NOTHING can be chosen except for in the Hardware tab, but everything I click on in that tab just tells me it's "working properly".

The speakers I have now are Gigaware 8w 2.1 Multimedia Speakers.
