connecting new sound card to the front jack?

conundrumK · 11-19-2005, 02:59 PM

Hi all,

I recently bought a new sound card so that I could use it with my new 5.1 speakers. I used to use the onboard sound before. I usually use the the jack in front of the computer panel for headphone, and it was working fine. But now that I have install the new sound card, the front jack stop working. What can I do to make it work again, please help.

thank you all so very much,
Kao

trace the wire from the front jacks back to the onboard card. Unplug it and then plug it in to the appropriate jack on the new sound card
