Re: sound problems....
I'm not sure why, but mine is pretty low too....
If you open your music mixer, turn your mast volume down a little, and then turn up your PCM and PC speaker volume all the way up. This makes it a lot loader, but still a far cry from my windows.
Hopefully, there is a way to make it even loader!
Edit:
I take that last statement back! I have it at about 80% right now, but with in the next 20% the volume sky rockets! If not equal to windows, LOUDER!
While I'm here, is there a way to make the volume go up in more gradual increments? Right now, the volume is too quit to even hear until about 60% then 80% is normal listening lvls, and then at 90%, I'm worried about my speakers blowing.... -
Re: sound problems....
I have the "too quiet" problem as well.
I'll try bobleny's solution but I don't want to blow out my speakers.
In the Mixer, click the rightmost tab (I forget the name, but there are only 3 tabs
), there should be a box marked "external amplifier" I un-checked it (even though I have the sound going through my stereo receiver). This helped a bit.
However the sound is still much quieter that CDs or the Radio (I've had a few scares after listening to music on my computer, then switching to radio).
For some, this may do the trick.Comment
