There's two sets of RCA connectors on the back of the sub; one set for the satellites, the other for the input. You did connect the satellites to the grey and blue RCA connectors?

Uhm, theres 2 side speakers and its blue and black cables, and the other is small black plug, which I plugged into the black port of my sound card

When i plug the jack in, it makes the frequency noise so it works, but has no sound

I remember on windows 8 it showed a box to change the check box from headphones to speakers 5.1 or whatever etc aint coming up on win10

You mention a check box; I assume you are you using onboard audio, rather than sound card?

I have a sound card,but im not sure its working atm, havent installed DG audio thing, but the onboard audio didnt do anything either, since i got a new motheboard

Motherboard audio or sound cards that use colour coded sockets, the black one is for the rear speakers. If you've set the output to stereo/2.1, and got the speakers connected to the black socket, then that is one reason why the sound is not working.

You need to connect them to the green, which is for the front left and right speakers.

If it's still not working, then there must be something else though if you have them connected up OK.

Regardless of onboard (Realtek) or the Asus DG, both "sound devices" will require driver install to function.

Just install the drivers, and then select the device to use in "sound property" of Windows.

To quickly test the speaker to make sure it works, you could just plug the 3.5mm connection into the 3.5mm audio jack of a phone or tablet.
