Sound is too low; even when on 100% with headphones.

I got a new desktop computer today, and the volume of it is so low that I can barely hear sounds even when it's on 100% and I'm wearing headphones. Does anyone know any fixes to this?

Where are you plugging in your headphones and what is the manufacturer and model of the desktop.

Does the keyboard have keys to adjust the hardware volume [mine do]? Frequently that has to be accomplished before the Windows controls help. Notebooks are the same. You can also plug into the Speakers port on the front or rear [rear port is usually the light green one]. I've never seen the speakers in monitors be as satisfactory as separate speakers/headset. And the monitor menu or control buttons usually have a speaker setting.

Mine aren't exactly synced, can control the volume separately, set the keyboard first then set the Windows volume.

I would plug them directly into the PC.

Good job neighbor.
