well all of that makes sense, but remember, there are lots of sound cards out there and he may not see those choices you mention if he's got a different card. I missed the beginning of the thread, so I'm wondering if, at any point, were the cables connecting the speakers unhooked, and then hooked back up again? If yes, then the answer is probably that they were hooked up incorrectly and it produces a mono signal.
The other possible choice is that you may have gone into your sound card settings and changed a setting which may produce a mono signal. For example I've got a SB audigy 2 card here and in the audio HQ in control pannel there are several different choices. I chose 5.1 surround sound because that's the kind of system I have.
So I would check in the control pannel and look for a place where you can make changes to your sound card.

There two possible problems assuming the speaker cables are good and properly connected.
1: in volume controls, under properties, you may have checked the mute for stereo mixer but not for mono. Second, in the audio settings for speaker set up, you may have the wrong speaker choice checked. The crystal drivers are on the disk used to install your mother board. If you have that disk and insert it, it should bring up a menu which includes "audio." You may need a pair of functioning eyes present for that one, I really don't remember whether it speaks or not.
