Setting up Analog/Digital Audio Output
✎
Microsoft Windows 2000
Troubleshooting Guide
Some computers may have an integrated audio solution that supports
analog or digital external stereo speakers. These systems are capable
of auto-sensing the speaker type and outputting the correct signal. To
manually change between analog, digital, and auto-sense, complete
the following set of procedures based on the operating system.
If you set digital as the Output Mode, the internal speaker and
external analog speakers will no longer output audio until you switch
back to an auto-sense or analog mode. If you set analog as the Output
Mode, external digital speakers will not function until you change the
output mode back to an auto-sense or digital mode.
