Hey guys,i hv a MERCURY 980 W 2.1 Speaker setup. Lately im unable to hear sound from the Right Speaker wenever i play any games,music or any PC system sounds too. The Left speaker gives all the sounds (while playing games,music as well as PC system sounds).

I have also noticed that wen i turn ON the radio (from the speaker's amplifier), the sound is played to both the speakers.

This problem (sound NOT coming from right speaker) arises only wen i play games,music,PC system sounds,start up and shut down sounds.

I DONT hv a sound card and my Mobo has an onboard sound wich is SOUNDMAX (version 5.12.1.3630) I hv also reinstalled the Sound drivers but the problem still persists.Please help...!!

My mobo is Intel D-865 GBF,256 MB DDR(266) Hynix RAM,WIN-XP SP2.

Cheers n e-peace....

yeah usually it is the connector problem......but before u jump to conclusions, chk if in ur volume control, if the balance slider is set to the centre.....and then as a last resort, cut off the jack of the speakers and then solder a new jack in...or get someone to do it for you....


cheers

Yaa i tried all the Volume controls too and today i Interchanged the wires leading from the speaker to the Amplifier of my 2.1 Speaker setup,now the reverse thing has happened. Now i can hear sound from the RIGHT speaker but i cant hear sound from LEFT speaker (after interchanging the wires).. :? :?

Hey guys, today i went to the Local Electronic Repair shop to check if my Speakers were working correctly or not. Well i hv found tat both my speakers are working fine (sound coming from both the speakers) but wenever i plug them in the JACK of my mobo, then while playing songs i can hear sound from just one speaker but while listening to radio (from the Woofer radio button) i can hear sound from both speakers..... :shock: :shock:

Now, Is the audio Jack on my mobo corrupt ?? If yes, then how will i fix this ? and will buying a sound card rectify and solve this problem ? I hv an INTEL D 865 GBF mobo.

Please suggest guys..... :cry:

Cheers n e-peace.....

Did u check out with the connectors on the motherboard... There's one small paired wire that's connected to the mobo... This problem comes if that wire's loose or faulty... Check it out...

But buddy can u please enlighten me on wat type of sound card shud i go for and its approx price as well.. :? (i hv an INTEL D865 GBF mobo with a 2.1 Mercury Speaker setup)...and i jus want the sound to come from both the speakers normally and i dnt wanna invest it on a costly sound card as i wanna save it to buy more RAM for my mobo.. :)

Just get a cheap soundcard. No need for creative if mercury speakers is what you got. Just get one for 400-600 bucks...

Hey guys,

I enquired from various local dealers (in mumbai) and they told me tat sound card from 2 local companies are available:

1) Lancer-----------> Rs.325/- (approx.)
2)Intex-------------> Rs.320/- (approx.)

With sum "CMI" or so called based chipset (on both the cards) Now i wanna ask tat are these reliable sound cards? and am i offered a correct price? And installing this sound card will solve my sound problem?

I hv an INTEL D865GBF motherboard (with onboard SOUNDMAX sound gone corrupt) with WIN XP PRO+SP2 as my OS and 256 MB DDR(266) Hynix RAM and Seagate 160 GB SATA HDD


Cheers n e-peace...
