I have a DELL DIMENSION B110.The usb ports have been out for at least a year, and I opened it to clean out the dust, and accidentally disconnected the cords from the board. After the replacing the cords, in what I thought was the right place, my headphone jack has gone out as well. I would like to restore my usb ports and headphone jack. Thank you for your time and help. I checked the device manager, and there are no yellow notices.

Okay so if the USB ports have been "out" for a year, what other cable have you disconnected?

Do you plug your earphones on the front input jack or in the back input jack.

If you use the front then maybe the cable you accidently unpluged was the front audio connector.

If you use the front audio connectors the back ones will not work, you cannot have both working at the same time.

So check if the cable is correctly pluged in if you use the front audio jack or unplug the cable if you use the back panel one.
