There is no sound coming from my computer. I unplugged the speakers and still no sound. I checked and the volume control is up.

This is normal when you disconnect the speakers, and is nothing to worry about.
When you want to listen to music, just plug them back in the correct place as per the manual.

Open Control Panel, Sounds and Multimedia, and check the Audio tab. What's listed there?
Life's more painless for the brainless.

What I have saved for Sound Controls.
First right click your speaker Icon and open Volume control
and make sure your sound is not muted. Located on your lower right.
If you don't have a speaker Icon go to the Control Panel and check your sound.
Next try.
Windows XP
See if your sound has been stopped in Services Under
Windows Audio.
Start - Control Panel - Open Administrative Tools - Open Component Services - Click Services (Local) and Scrowl down the list to Windows Audio to see if it says - Started. If stopped
Left click Windows Audio and click restart. -
Or
Right click Windows Audio - left click Properties - Left click Start
If still no sound next try this But be careful because your in the Registry and you can harm your computer.
You should have a backup of everything on your computer before going into the Registry.
Go to Start>Run, type in regedit and hit ok.
Navagate to HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\Sound
"Beep" and "ExtendedSounds" should both be set to "yes" in order for the speakers to work.
If you still don't have any sound.
If the above doesn't work, go to control panel and open System Icon -
Hardware Tab - Device Manager - Click the + Plus sign for Sounds.......... -
Right click Realtek AC 97 or whatever sound system you have. - Left click - Update Driver.
To update you will need the CD that came with your computer.
Keep in mind the above instructions are for Windows XP.
Maybe some of this will help or maybe not

I disconnected the speakers because I thought they were not working. I am trying to find out why there is no sound on my computer. I checked volume controls, nothing is muted.
