Check to see if its hook up properly in the back. Or if any wires or plugs are in the wrong place.

Unplug the speakers form your computer and plug them into a CD player or something. If only one speaker works on the CD player, you need to fix or replace your speakers. If they both work, the computer is the problem. Plug a pair of headphones into the speaker jack. If both of the headphones work then something is messed up on your machine. (It might be hardware or software.) Make sure the stereo balance isn't all the way to one side. If there's a headphone jack on the front of your computer, try plugging the headphone or speakers in there. (This will tell if it's just the speaker plug or the sound hardware.)

Chances are your speakers crapped out.

I thought mine crapped out once but all i had to do was look at how it was plugged in. It was just in the wrong hole...

Look at the balance settings.
