Hey!
My computer went to repair(changed the motherboard) and now I found out that when I put my headphones in while the speakers were playing, there wasn't any music in the headphones, but usually sound would come from there too. Also I noticed that Realtek HD Audio Drivers were missing and I installed v 2.71, but it didn't help. Both use audio jacks.
Thanks in advance!

Hello rei158

See if the steps below help, please note that they were copy/paste and I merely corrected some grammar;

The headphones may be off by default or there is a configuration problem, see below;
1. Click the Windows Start button
2. Click the Control Panel
3. Click the Realtek Hd audio manager
4. Click the Device advance settings
5. Make sure that the mute the rear device, when a front headphone is plugged in is checked.
6. Go back to the previous page. Then if you take a leap of faith and click the small yellow folder button, that you have to look for, trust me it is not a decorative feature and it is not labeled. It's below device advance settings and above the analog heading to the right just under the line, that is the best description I can give sorry. If you are not sure just start clicking randomly in that area and you might hit it. Why not label a button?
7. On that pop up select both the
- Disable front panel jack detection
- Enable auto pop up when a device is plugged in. (selected by default)
