    Is there a registry setting or something I can change to get the volume to go higher? I have all my cd players and mp3 players set to max volume, but this is as high as the meter ever gets.

    Here's a screen of what I'm seeing...

    Are these powered speakers with their own volume/balance
    controls ? Sorry, had to ask that !

    Did this problem start just recently ? Have you changed any
    settings ? Have you tried re-installing the drivers ?
    Maybe the headphones are belly up ? It happens ..

    Actually, it seems like it worked fine on my old machine at first, and then started doing it later. When I upgraded to a newer PC, it did that right from the start.

    Have you changed any
    settings ?

    Probably...but, don't ask me what.

    Have you tried re-installing the drivers?

    I installed the latest patch for the SB 5.1, but it was doing this before and after the patch

    Maybe the headphones are belly up?

    Hmmmm...hadn't really thought about an external hardware problem. I'll check it out. Thanks for the help...
