OK, On your computer you have one of two configs. Either, one grey set of
wires and another small wire plugging directly into your sound card and
CD-Rom. OR The grey set goes to your mainboard. DO NOT TOUCH THE GREY SET OF
WIRES. Check the other cable. This is the only cable which has anything to
do with your problem. Is it in the right sockets (ie analog NOT digital
output on cd-rom) Hope this helps you.
