Hello
try hooking the speakers up to the head phone jack instead of the
microphone jack, and hopefully that should take care of the problem.
hope this helps

Hi. I can't get my PC to send sound to my stereo system's speakers. Let me
explain. You'll soon see that I'm less than an amateur at this.
The default speakers on my PC are MM1s. As many of you know, they don't rely on
any on-board soundcard. Eight years ago, my PC was also connected by wire to my
stereo system, in another part of the room. My PC has since been replaced, and
that connection to the stereo was lost. For better or worse, the guy who
installed the stereo ran the wire behind the wall, up over the ceiling and down
to the back of the stereo. (My apartment was being completely renovated at the
time.)
As far as I can tell, that wire hooked into my Pc's microphone jack. I can
confirm that there's a wire that comes out of the baseboard that does seem to
correspond to the microphone jack. It is now plugged in to that jack.
However, I still can't get the stereo to play. As I said, the MM1s are my
default and I want them to stay that way. I've tried to configure the on-board
soundcard to work with my stereo speakers, but without success.
That's the best I can do to explain the problem. Can anyone suggest a solution
or tell me where I've gone wrong?
Thanks.
