Title: Internal Speaker Sounds
Post by: rasilun on March 27, 2008, 06:24:56 PM

How do I get all of my computer sounds/wav's to come out of my onboard speaker on the motherboard?

Vista ->Start ->Search box type "sound"->after search ends click Sound-> select sound tab->select any sound->click test.
You should then hear the audio if you have speakers, if not try headphone to make sure sound board is ok.

As much as I appreciate your help, I do not think that is what I'm looking for. Let me be a little more specific.

XP Pro.

My computer has a little speaker on the motherboard. It works. I want to play movies on my computer and listen through that speaker. But, that speaker only plays error sounds and POST. I can plug speakers/headset in and it works. But, I want to hear from my motherboard speaker.

It's not designed to work this way...and if it was the sound is so tinney you wouldn't stand for it very long.
