Want to use External 2.1 Analog but only have Digital in Win 7
I know this must have been asked and answered many times, but I can't find the thread that works for me.
I have HD TV as my monitor. It has the usual built in speakers, with sound coming through HDMI from the Nvindia HD audio output driver, from the video card. No video on MB.
I do not want to use that. I have a very good 2.1 analog speaker system I want to use.
In Control Panel/Sounds; Speaker:Realtek High Def Audio is grayed out, RealTek Digital Output is availible, Nvdia HDMI HD Audio is set as default.
All drivers are up to date.
Also from Control Panel I have RealTek Audio Manger. In that the Analog inputs/outputs a grayed out, and the digital are ative.
In the BIOS I only have HD Audio enabled/Disabled. Nothing about front end speakers. Though there is header for those on the MB but is not connected.
Nothing happens when I plug or unplug the grean 3.5mm audio jack in Win 7 x64. Obviously I can't unplug HDMI cable. This is the first time I have used HDMI with this MB. I know the sound works on this MB.
Any fix out there through windows?
Thanks
