how can i listen to streamed content while waiting for my USB sound adapter to arrive . i disabled the headphones in control panel but still no sound ..
Try going into "Control Panel" again and "Sound". Highlight "Speakers" and then click the "Configure" button. If that makes no difference. Double click on "Speakers", go to the "Levels" tab and make sure all are set correctly. Then go to the "Advanced" tab and click the "Test" button. Should none of this work. Try clicking the "Restore Defaults" in the same option.
After that you may want to try updating the drivers for the device.
