headphones ignorred regular 3.5 mm jack audio cable
Ok, here is the deal: yesterday everything worked perfectly fine and it worked fine for years. Today I booted up and noticed my headphones are no longer working. The speakers still are, but when I go to playback devices, it says 'not plugged in' but it is. I tried everything by now. Drivers, realtek software, a fresh instal...
It is getting frustrating. I am starting to believe this is hardware related
In which case I am scrwd, because I just recently bought an 10m extension cord for it
Any ideas?
*edit*
btw I tried different headphones.
*edit 2*
I have 2 jack audio output 'spots' (cant figure out the right word for this) one had the drawing of an headphone on it (i got that one working again), the other one has that too, but that second one also says: S/PDIF I guess this is the one from the HDMI card? So messing with the realtek drivers did nothing to that one huh?
*edit 3*
It stays like this, whatever 'spot' is connected.
