    I've plugged them into the USB at the back, along with the green and pink ports at the back, still doesn't work.

    Edit: Also, when my old headset was working and sound was playing through it, my phone earphones weren't working in my computer. I was changing them between ports while audio played, the headset worked, the earphones didn't.

    I don't understand this at all.

    I installed the chipset and audio, I think that's about it.
    I didn't know what other ones I should install.

    Put the W7 disk in and choose repair install. See this tutorial:

    About to do the driver sweeper.

    Edit: I done driver sweeper on Realtek, but after I restarted my computer it's still there?
    Thanks, you have onboard audio, Realtek.
    In Driver Sweeper did you check the Realtek items? It should have prompted you to reboot.
    Have you moved any connectors on the motherboard?

    Go to Device Manager and open up Sound, video and game controllers. Do you see any yellow triangles.
