my speakers are plugged into the right spot and everything should work fine, i had windows xp yesterday and they were fine. i downloaded windows seven and now it says that there is no speakers or headphones plugged in. i have no clue what sound card i have or what my speakers are though, all i do know is that they are altec lansing.
Complete the system specs and then go to altec for latest drivers that are compatible with windows 7.
What version of Windows 7 and 32/64bit?
home premium and 32 bit
i dont know were to find any of the system specs, im 14 and not amazingly computer-savvy
Download this for future reference.

thanks so much dude your awesome
it downloaded driver detective, which i came across before, and i have to pay for it to do anythingis it possible to get the driver free?
Unless your speakers are USB, they do not need drivers of any kind; what does need a driver is the sound card.
The Howling Wolves that driver utility you linked to despite all the different fancy names they have given them all (there is a Canon one, one for Lexmark, etc), are nothing more than this,

which is another one of those that likes to charge (in their case $30.00) to be able to download what is free from the hardware/computer manufacturers; just need to know where to look.
is there any way to find out which sound card i have? i do not remember at all.
Drivers for Sound Devices
They say it's free but probably just the scan for the driver you need and then charge you.
Be back in a minute as I continue to search for you.
