    Audio jack stuck in PC input jack...?


    Hello my dear fellow windows 7 users!

    A few days ago, one half of the jack of my external speakers got stuck in the female jack of my PC laptop.
    I am using Realtek HD audio, and I wanted to ask whether it is possible for me to somehow disable the jack and have my audio played through my normal inbuilt laptop speakers, seeing as I will be needing audio from my computer as soon as possible.

    Here is a snapshot of my audio devices - and as you can see the speakers and headphones are under one device so I can't switch between the two..



    Please help me guys thanks alot

    There is a contact switch inside that audio port that switches the built in speakers off when a jack is inserted.
    This is a physical switch so the issue is hardware. I doubt there will be any software solution for it.

    So your mission is to remove that broken jack. If you are uncomfortable taking a laptop apart you might consider taking it to a repair shop.
