    This might occur if the speakers are plugged into the wrong port on the computer. There are sometimes two ports that send sound out. One is for speakers, and the other is an unamplified output for other devices. Plugging into the wrong port on a Sound Blaster gave me (I think) very faint sound.

    Everything is at max but is there a column for Wave?

    Control panel, sound and audio devices
    -speaker volume
    -max those out and Apply

    Now click Advanced and make sure you have speakers set to Desktop Stereo Speakers and apply

    Now check sound again

    When you double clicked on the speaker and the items come up, is there a volume column there that says Wave
    -should have a Master volume and Wave volume
