    try that :

    1. Shutdown
    2. Disconnect AC cable
    3. Remove battery
    4. Depress and hold the power button for a 20 count
    5. Replace battery
    6. Plug in AC cable
    7. Boot up and test

    If it's not working chances are they forgot to connect the speakers to the mobo.
    Try the first thing, then if it's not helping we try other stuff.
