Hi guys,

in my CPU front audio never works, and i watch movies using headphone only. So i bought USB SOUND card for Rs.100 two times but it gets broke by pushing & pulling from USB port.

So now I've decided to buy a speaker with headphone jack, so suggest me cheapest speaker that has headphone jack facility.

Budget: Rs.500

I already have CREATIVE 2.1 speaker but it don't have headphone jack, is it possible to add headphone jack to my current 2.1 speaker ? :mrgreen:

Could you tell me your motherboard model, and what kind of cabinet (local or branded, and the model no. if you know)??

Is the front audio cable connected To motherboard?

I too when I bought a new pc, front audio didn't work, but I found the reason and now it's working and I'll tell you the procedure, if it works, then you could save save some $$

There are two types of Front panel connectors
All LOCAL cabinets have AC '97 front panel audio wire connectors, and the default Realtek control panel in computer is configured for HD audio
Cabinets like CoolerMaster or other branded ones give both type of connectors LIKE THIS

Thanks, I think I should create a thread specifically for local cabinets regarding this issue, cause EVERYONE will have this problem

And save $$ by not buying speakers with headphone jack :D

For speakers try Logitech R-05 or R-10. Both have headphone jack.

But i'm getting sound in both speaker and headphone. and pressing MUTE from keyboard MUTES only headphone.

And there is no such option in audio manager to disable to front+back etc.

there are 5 options:

1) fire up realtek control panel and under ANALOG Back Panel there you will find the jack in which you plugged the speakers in highlighted, click it and select it as line in then it wont work :-D but headphones work

2) reduce the volume of your external speakers
3) disconnect the external speakers
4) turn them off
5) don't use external speakers, throw them away :p

edit: why no reply??? it didn't work or what?
