Shouldn't have to do anything extra. The speakers connect to the sound card
and the jack is in the correct hole? Some jacks fit "tight" and you'll hear
a "click" when fully inserted. If a separate power supply is provided, it
is plugged into a working outlet? Volume controls are not muted? Checked
speaker configuration and speaker volume control in Control Panel> Sounds
and Audio? Sorry if this is ground you've already covered but you did not
mention what you've tried so far.
