You said:
"I ran a cable from my line out on the sound card to an external powered speaker and I got sound so I'm assuming my computer (external) speaker system is malfunctioning.
But I think that you meant to say that you're assuming that you Internal speaker is malfunctioning, is that correct?
I would tend to agree with Bryce, but your message seems to indicate that the internal speaker(s) played the audio files at one time, then recently quit.
You say you have a Creative Labs sound card, so is this a desktop computer? Or do you have a laptop with a Creative Labs audio chip built-in?
Your message seems to suggest that this is a laptop and that you used to use the internal speakers for audio.
If so, the two speakers may be connected to the motherboard via a single connector, which has worked loose. You might be able to fix this yourself if you are comfortable taking the computer apart.
Otherwise, you might be resigned to paying to have it fixed, or just sticking with using the external speakers.
What make and model is it, by the way?
