i bought new PC speakers today, and when i plug them in there is no sound. ive tried the front audio panel and the mobo audio panel as-well. stilll there is no sound. i check for devices and the speakers are no there. and when i right click the speaker in the task bar, and right-click, i go on playback devices, and it just says, 'speakers- high definition audio' with a tick next to it. yet there is no sound. my PC spec are:

mobo-p8h61-m le/USB3
gpu-asus geforce gt210
cpu- intel dual core g620
psu- a generic 450w (no name)
hdd- seagate barracuda 500gb

THANKS FOR READING :)
 

Double click the speaker icon in the lower right hand of the desktop, this will bring up the mixer, or single click to bring up the volume control.
But in case the volume is missing, corrupted, or the audio is otherwise non-functional:
you check whichever audio was installed:
click start, control panel, add remove programs, look at the list...
which audio software is shown on the list? delete it, restart the computer.

now visit the motherboard manufacturer or computer manufacturer's website
look up your computer drivers by model number
download the latest audio drivers, save on the desktop...
turn the antivirus off,
if you have multiple security programs installed, turn them all off
(your driver may not install if security systems are turned on)
now load your new audio driver, restart, turn the antivirus back on.
