anything look different from the original ............lowest picture
CRX880A Compaq Presario C305LA C508US C551NR Optical Combo Drive CD-RW DVD- ROM
are you using a sound Card the presario SR5202HM has this sound setup
Sound/Audio
Integrated Realtek ALC888 Audio
Audio CODEC: Realtek ALC888
High Definition 6 channel audio
make sure that this sound driver is up to date
here is the plugs
4 - Audio: Line In (light blue)5 - Audio: Line Out (lime)6 - Audio: Microphone (pink)
make sure you have the headphones plugged into the Lime colored plug
if this doesn't work i have some more idea's let me know.
its not the speakers. it may be that your sound card driver is not installed so try downloading the drivers from the laptop support site and then try connecting your speakers.
first i would recommend unplugging all audio devices, rebooting, then plugging them back in.
If that doesn't work then here is a link to the drivers for it: http://h20000.www2.hp.com/bizsupport/TechSupport/SoftwareIndex.jsp?lang=en&cc=us&prodNameId=396420&prodTypeId=12454&prodSeriesId=385242&swLang=8&taskId=135&swEnvOID=228#113165
the drivers are for XP but on my compaq presario it still worked on windows 7.
you have the real driver for your sound card if yes therefore unpluck the sound card then repluck it eventually after putting your computer off .then after you ve repluck it put it on and introduce the driver into the cd rom and instal it
