    I just got a load of new stuff for a new PC i'm building,, and it's building and working with no problems.. apart for the speakers.

    I got the Logitech X-230 I've installed all the Audio/Realtek drivers that came with the mother boards,, No drivers/CD came with the speackers.. they are on and plugged into the pack of the PC with the colour coded jack plug in the right place.

    I've checked Device manager and theres no errors in there.

    everything in in the PC is brand new, So if anyone has any ideas please let me know

    thanks.

    You aint gonna get drivers with a set of speakers.

    I have found onboard audio terribly unreliable- may be a case of you plugging it into the wrong place on mobo- colour coding can differ. The green on my mobo is mic in, and the speaker lead is also green so...

    got it working..

    the sound playback setting was set to something else.. i think something that came with the graphics card,, cos the card is a HDMI card and HDMI carrys sound.. so i set it to realtek

    thanks guys
