Do i connect the speakers to the monitor or the computer itself? afterwards, do i haveto go to control panel or anything in order to make it work?

The Samsung SyncMaster P2570hd is a monitor with speakers; it isn't the computer itself. I'll assume that you are dealing with a computer connected to the monitor and not a set-top box. Make sure that Mute is not enabled on the computer. There should be an icon on the lower right hand side of a Windows desktop. If the mute is enabled, it will have a red circle with a diagonal line through it. Left click on the icon to remove the mute (change the volume or click on the mute icon). Test the monitor's speakers by connecting it to another device with known good audio output.

Next how are you connecting the monitor to the computer (VGA, DVI or HDMI)? If you are using VGA or DVI (including DVI to HDMI), you need to connect an audio patch cable (3.5 mm) between the speaker (green port on the back of a sound card) or headphone jack of the computer and the audio input jack of the monitor. The audio input jack is between the DVI and VGA ports. You can test the output of the speaker jack on the computer with regular computer speakers. Plug in the power cord (or USB cable) for powered speakers. If the free-standing speakers work, check the volume setting on the monitor with the +/- buttons to the right of the menu button. Do not press menu first, though. If that doesn't solve the problem, continue using the separate speakers. (Unless the monitor is still under warranty, it usually isn't worth taking apart a monitor to replace the speakers. You may be able find replacement parts online.)

If you are using an HDMI cable, check the output audio setting to see if the HDMI audio is available. For Windows, click on Start > Control Panel > Hardware and Sound (Windows 7). Then click on Manage Audio Devices under Sound. In the Playback tab, check what available audio devices you have. Make the HDMI the default device by right-clicking on it and selecting Make this the default device. (Other versions of Windows will a slightly different route to this panel.) You may need to restart the computer to get the audio signal on the HDMI cable after setting this. Note: not all video cards/computers support HDMI audio. If you don't see HDMI listed in the Playback devices, connect an audio patch cable as with a VGA or DVI cable, described above. Use stand-alone speakers if the monitor's speakers are bad.

I hope this helps.

(I have had the speakers fail in monitors; <$30 separate speakers are an adequate replacement for those built into a flat panel monitor.)

Plug the headphones/speakers into the computer. Go into Control Panel -> Sounds and Audio Devices -> Audio Tab -> Sound playback -> Select your headphones from the drop-down list. Voila headphones/speakers that work.

First, check all connections carefully.

Have you reinstalled the monitor using the disk that came with the system?
Try getting off the internet and turning off your virus control before installation. Also, make sure there are not a lot of programs running in the background. You can check what is running by right clicking on your desktop. You can unclick anything that has nothing to do with the system or windows, such as programs that you have installed etc. You can go back afterwards and recheck them, for immediate startup.

I hope this helps.

First, find out if the speakers or audio is working properly. At your PC menu, left click Setting, Control
Panel, and Add hardware. Click the add hardware wizard and just follow the instruction until you will find all the installed hardware of your PC. Click at the Audio, and the sound driver of your PC to find if these are working properly. Assuming that this are working
properly, test the audio output of your PC by putting
in another set of speaker (borrowed or otherwise).
If you hear the sound, then it is a connection problem. The wire to the speaker could be broken, or
the speaker itself. Under this condition, it is your
option to open up your monitor and test the speakers.
Or to just buy a new set of speakers. Unless you
are familiar with handling an open monitor, you may
go ahead with opening the monitor Otherwise, it is
wiser to buy the speakers which is much cheaper
than a monitor that could accidentally get damage.

there is no need another wire of sound for lcd monnitor go control panel and set sound option from speaker and sound

Speakers built in to monitors are notorious for being quiet. But, check the sound in control panel and see if it knows you r useing that type of speakers. And of course check monitor itself for a manual volume control.

You need to connect an audio cable from the sound card to the monitor? Once that is connected you should be able to control the sound normally.

Good luck and please let me know how it works out for you!

do you have anything plugged into headphone socket at front or rear? Try Control Panel - Sound and play test sound.
Check Control Panel - System - Device MAnager - Hardware and see if any red or yellow icons. If so click on them and update driver.

hi there, 1st check the connection of cable speakers. then check the volume control, switch it mid range setting. then check the hardware device if there is no conflict with any device. try to reset your system once again and if still same problem, you may have a Speaker problem, maybe the connection inside your monitor with the speaker has a loose connection or some electronics part failure. TY

This won't have anything to do with the monitor in the control panel, you should be looking at "Sounds and Audio Devices". Did the sound ever work?
