    Did the speakers come with a CD?
    If so, put it in a follow the instructions, then reply if you succeeded or failed.

    If not, what brand of speaker is it?

        Speakers don't come with any CD. What for?
        Why new speakers? Did the sound work before?

            Look at the front panel of your computer. Does it have any name on it?

              This is correct info. We'll need it, but first....

              Go Start>Run, type in:
              devmgmt.msc
              Click OK.

              Device Manger will open.
              Are there any yellow "?", or "!" marks there?

                USB controller has nothing to do with the sound problem.
                Go here: http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareList?os=228&lc=en&dlc=en&cc=us&lang=en&product=362754
                Download sound driver (2nd on the list - Realtek).
                Uninstall current sound driver, and install new one.
