I have no idea what happened. My right speaker does not play sound, just a low static sound. Its very low, I have to put my ear up to it to hear it. I thought it was just blown out or something, but when I plugged my headphones into my computer the right side didnt work. Why wont sound come out of the right, only out of the left?
 
Make sure you don't have the balance set all the way to the left in your sound utility program.

Uninstalling and reinstalling it would be a good thing to try too.
 
Are you absolutely sure you have the jack plugged in all the way? Try rotating it around and jiggling it to see if you just have a bad connection.

Does your onboard sound have the ability to reassign any of the jacks? (like change line-in to line-out or something)

If so, you could try to reassign one of them to do stereo out or line-out and hook up to that one. If it's just one of your jacks going back, that might solve it.
 
have you tried diferent players? maybe it's the software. for example, winamp has an option to lower the volume on only one speaker.
so try another player and look into audio settings too (control panels).
 
Ok, I tried something new. I switched the cord on the woofer so the right speaker was plugged into left in, and left speaker into right in. That made the right speaker work, but not the left speaker! I have no idea, maybe the woofer is messed up.

No idea what that means, sorry.

I have tried Winamp, WMP, Foobar, and I tried playing a dvd in WinDVD. All with the same results

In your sound utility program does it give you any options for changing the sound settings (like 2.1, 5.1, 4.1, etc.)

You have a 2.1 set, right?
 
If the onboard allows you to select different modes (like 4.1) try to set it to that and plug into the newly assigned jack for rear output.

I can change the ammount of speakers, if that's what you mean. I have it set to 2.

set it to 4 and then plug into the jack that would be outputting the rear signal (hopefully it would tell you, but I'd guess the blue one)
