No sound in Front Panel Jack

(Solved) No sound in Front Panel Jack

I had this problem since i installed Windows 7 yesterday and my speakers in the back of my computer work fine, but just i cant put my headphones in the front panel. I saw several topics on here about it, but i read them and couldn't find a solution.
I tried other audio codecs, i tried to Install Realktek HD Audio Codec/Driver so many times but everytime it installs and i restart, in device manger, its back to high definition audio device, which is the default from microsoft.

Even when i try to install like like Update Driver > Let Me choose > Have Disk and such, extracting it and all that, it still doesn't work.

Please help me, i have a 1GB Ram, and a 3.0GHZ processor. I can't spend my time breaking my back to bend over to put my headphones in the back.
Thanks in advance.

First,

Don't install audio drivers randomly, your motherboard has a specific audio chip and it needs the drivers that are programmed specifically for that make & model.

Windows has installed an HD driver and your speakers are working when plugged into the back, correct?

The front headphone jack is blue, plug a set of phones in there.. then:

Right click on the Microsoft Speaker icon in the task bar, select Playback Devices.

Do you see "Speakers" with a green check mark (default) beside it?

Is there an icon for headphones?

If there's no other icons make sure that are all visable, Right click in the middle of the Playback Devices Window and enable both... Disabled and Disconnected devices.

Any luck?

nothing happens actually, and the front jack color is green as well as the back.
i attached a pic of what it looks like when i did what you recommended.

Regarding the attached pic... did you have speakers plugged in the back at the time?

kirsi83, welcome to the Seven Forums.

The reason the above didn't work for you is because that motherboard has Via onboard audio and yours,

ASUSTeK Computer Inc. - Motherboards- ASUS P5G41T-M

has Realtek onboard audio. You need to install the Realtek drivers in order for it to work. You can use the rather antiquated one from Asus or you can get the latest one from the links here,

I looked for drivers for my motherboard and it gave me a realtek driver (Realtek_Audio_V51005964_Xp_V6015964_VistaWin7), but it didn't work...

I'm trying the other site now...

Edit: Yey, that worked! Thanx.

 

[kirsi83]

I know it's a bit of a wrong theme, but i think it's caused by installing that realtek latest driver yesterday. I tried to talk on skype just now and my mic is messed up. Pearson I tried to talk to didn't hear me, although both mic and speaker have the green ticks and are generally working. The problem is that the sound from mic comes back to my headphones now, so the person I'm talking to can't hear me. I could hear her though...

Any advice?

Have a look in the Via audio deck under recording for anything to do with "stereo mix" or something similar, and make sure that it isn't enabled and only set to microphone.
