Re: Dummy grandma needs help


EVERYTHING COMES TO HIM WHO WAITS!

I have been trying over six hours to get the speakers to work.
Received a reply to one of the many email queries/messages I sent,
telling me to plug into the green terminal jack on the back of my
tower. AND IT WORKED!

So now I AM listening to PRETTY WOMAN. Thanks anyway!
