OR

 

what type of motherboard do u have?

 

this is a response from intel's motherboards:

 

"Very low volume from speakers connected to the motherboard audio

 

 

The motherboard doesn't have an amplified audio output

 

 

Details

 

Use speakers that have built in amplifiers.

Could it be, that you connected your SB live with a dolby-surround/AC-3 hifi amplifier. Those discribed symptoms sometimes occur, when a game doesn´t fully support surround sound and your amplifier is in surround mode and not in stereo mode. If this is the case, switch your amplifier form surround to stereo.

well my speakers are the Altec Lansing ACS45's with the sub-woofer, so I dont think I have them hook up to a amplifier.
