I had to try a lot of different tricks before I found what worked for my computer, so I’ll walk you through what *should* work, including what actually worked for me. I know these speakers can go quite loud, yet they’ve been frustratingly quiet. One of the key annoyances for me is that the sound volume is very low even when it’s set to 100 and with external speakers plugged in. As operating systems mature, they tend to become pretty solid (think Windows XP SP2).
I like Windows 10, although as with any new operating system, it’s going to be glitchy until lots of bugs are patched through Windows Update.
