Do you have the correct drivers for your soundcard or audio onboard
installed? If yes, are they showing as correct in the Device Manager?

To add more to that, there are two other things you need know. First
off, speakers are not detected or installed on Windows. They do not have
drivers as the sound card controls these at the hardware level (It is
possible for software to detect how many speakers are connected though
depending on the board design). Second thing, try turning on some
music, then plug the jack into every hole in the back of your sound card
and see if sound comes out of any of them. It is sometimes very
difficult to determine which hole to put that jack into.

Also, do double check all the good stuff like power for the speakers,
sound card is seated in the slot properly, etc.

There are no drivers for speakers. Try reinstalling your sound card
drivers and make sure you are pluggin the jacks in the right spot and
everything is set correctly.
