Just a quickie, does this have anything to do with your PC restarting thread? Same PC?

It's a good idea to keep two separate threads as you did but you should mention the other one in each thread so people are aware.

1. Do you get sound if you plug headphones into the green sound card socket? Turn down volume before plugging in and then increase.

2. Can't remember Vista settings but if you go to Control Panel, Sounds..., check all settings in the Audio tab.

Are you plugging the speakers in the same place as the headphones? The idea of using headphones as a test is to tell if there is sound from that port. If you have the speakers plugged in at the back, plug the headphones in at the back. If you plug the headphones in at the front, plug the speakers in the some hole! It can make a difference whether it's front or back. You should try both, front and back.

You can double check by plugging your speakers into an mp3 player or similar. If you don't get sound it's the speakers.
