I have labtec lcs 1060 speakers that worked on my windows xp. i had to relaod the OS (windows xp again) and when i did they wont work. I know i had some issues getting them to work in the first place so why caint i get them working now? so tell me what i need to do to get them working again.

When the unit fell no doubt the wire that connects the two units was damaged and the speaker is not being energized. Check for a disconnect at either end of the wire and check both wires for continuity.

Don't worry - you do not have to buy a new speaker and it is a relatively easy fix.

You need some minimum amperage, bigger is better in this case if you don't know what it should be.

I would use system restore to put the lost stuff back onto your computer. Then if it puts back the unwanted software be more careful about removing it.

To open these you need to pull the front grille off. There are four screws, one in each corner. You'll need to do a bit of prying to get it open as the case is sealed around the edges, but it isn't too terribly difficult. Just take your time.

Being windows vista is most likely is a driver problem. Is it internal or external sound system, not the card that works. If the manufacturer does not have an updated driver by now you can set the device to work like windows xp and it should only effect that device. Also search the web there are driver packs out there for windows vista, keep in mind its all the drivers for everything on one large compressed file so it should be a large file size.

Ultimately I would say upgrade to windows 7, its how windows vista should have worked. I have devices from windows 98 that work on win7 no problems. Vista was just very premature in its release. Hope this can help. Sorry for my bad spelling.

When you plug the speakers in, check that the correct default playback device has been selected
Control panel/ sound

Most speakers do not need any sort of software. All you have to do is to plug it in

check to see if your outs work try a diffrent speaker that u know works or some headphones if it work then your cable on your speakers are streched if it does not drivers could be the problem or volume to low in windows good luck!

check whether the output plug is connected properly or not.... if it is then check out whether the adapter is giving the power output.... if it is then the speakers are spoilt otherwise u can just replace the adapter...

go to start ->control panel->sound and audio devices. and click on the audio tab. under sund play back is c if your sound card is displayed in default devices if this area is grayed out, it means there is a problem with your audio device drivers. if this is the case, let me know and I'll tel you how to install the drivers.
