    I assume you're playing from a DVD.

    Are you using powerdvd or something?

    You can tweak your realtek audio manager to see if you can get a louder volume, however the biggest limitation will still be the hardware itself. It'll probably be best to get headphones or external speakers if you want louder volume.

    Asus makes great laptops but their speakers are a complete laughingstock. My old 2004 Toshiba Satellite, which doesn't even pale in comparison to my g51, had better speakers.

    Change the player options to stereo.
