the sound file requires. Experiment to find a balance that fits
your needs.

All Programs, Accessories, Entertainment, then click
Sound Recorder).
2
In the Sound Recorder window, click Edit, then click
Audio Properties.

In the Audio Properties dialog box, adjust the Recording
Volume and Preferred device.
4
Click OK.
Your new settings take effect the next time you record.
Using external speakers or headphones
Your computer is equipped with a full stereo sound system
with internal speakers. Instead of using the internal speakers,
you can connect headphones or a pair of external stereo
speakers.
To play back sound files through external speakers or
headphones:
1
Locate the headphone jack on the left side of the
computer.
2
Using any necessary adapters, plug the cable from the
headphones or external speakers into the headphone jack.
The headphone jack requires a 16-ohm stereo mini-jack.
TECHNICAL NOTE: Use amplified speakers that require an
external power source. Other types of speakers will be
inadequate to produce sound from the computer.
