Increase Sound Volume

Is there a simple way to boost the volume output in Windows XP? All the sound volume settings are on maximum, including in the relevant software, I just wondered if maybe there was a reg setting or something that could increase the overall output.

Thanks for the replies but I am not looking to get new speakers - more specifically I wanted to know if there were further ways to control the sound output from within Windows. Thanks

Some of the amps provided with builtin sound cards are woefully inadequate especially if they provide more than 2 channel sound. Especially in laptops. I use an 8 channel audio mixer to equalize the output of several laptops before sending the signal to powered speakers.

To clarify, are you currently using amplified speakers? If not, then don't expect anything more than what you are getting.
