Realtek hd problem..headphones work as speakers..

HELLO,

I have a wired problem with realtek hd r237 windows 7 drivers:

I don't have any sound on laptop's internal speakers but i can hear in headphones.In PLAYBACK DEVICES headphones are detected as speakers and when i unplug them sound automatically turns to SPDIF- no sound on internal speakers.

If a make a sound test (with headphones pluged in) whith Quadraphonic selection i can hear FL in my left headphone ,FR in my right headphone,RL in left internal speaker and RR in right internal speaker.

This is really frustrating ..help!!

Can you set the default device to your speakers when your headphones are not plugged in?

No i can't

Go to Control Panel>Device Manager and see if there are any yellow icons.

Done that -nothing.Already tried several driver versions..the newest works best,at least i have sound in headphones

Have you tried using the Realtek HD Audio Manager to see if you can correct the problem from there?

From what i can see REALTEK HD 237 DRIVERS dosen't have an audio manager aplication.I installed older drivers that have that and i cannot hear anything in speakers or headphones

I had my motherboard repaird last week and audio chip replaced but still the same problem

This is what Everest tells me:

I just installed Realtek HD audio manager from 2.37 drivers and now i have no sound in headphones or speakers
I tried different settings in audio manager nothing worked ..still spdif when i have my headphones unplugged and speakers when i plug them

Did you reboot after you uninstalled?

Yes i rebooted.Now i figured out that i have sound on headphones only when i let windows install Microsoft High Definition Driver ,when i'm installing realtek hd 2.37 i don't have sound on internal speakers or headphones.Any ideas why ?

Why it turns to spdif when i unplug my headphones? It should turn to Rear Left and Rear right where i think my internal speakers are connected

I finally have sound in headphones with new Realtek 2.38 drivers.Speakers no sound ,but now when i unplug my headphones i can hear a fade sound in internal speakers for few seconds....

Did the sound ever work on your laptop?

yes..is working now only when i make a sound test with Microsoft high definition driver and headphones plugged in ..

I said earlier that i had my motherboard repaired ,audio chip replaced and after than i have sound only in headphones with Microsoft High Definition driver and in internal speakers when i run a sound test..it is a picture on my first post

If i put a new sound card in pci express socket will i have sound on internal speakers?

i have same trouble downloaded new realtek driver and now i dond have sound manager is there a way to just download the manager.

To the OP: who replaced your sound chip? Uncle Frank, who knows all about computers, or the manufacturer/OEM?

to elliottjoey: no u can't download only the sound manager ..i think that u haven't installed drivers properly.follow the instructions carrefully

to Jonathan_King: No ,sound chip was replaced by a laptop service but i think they made a mistake ..initially i had an ALC268 and now Everest detects an ALC888s witch i think that is not compatible with my MB.I talked with the guy from service and he is sure that he replaced with an ALC268 ..he said that i can check if i take a look on my MB.Anyway i m stuck with headphones sound only on Microsoft drivers unless is there a way to redirect somehow sound from headphones to internal speakers by regedit or software.
