I just got this computer less than 2 months ago.
It has a Realtek soundcard. I think it's onboard. The soundcard still works and all but 4/6 jacks in the back are undetected when something is plugged in. I got a 1 year warranty I think. Could I send this in and get it fixed without paying for much? ____________________ |

If it's still covered under warranty then I'd think it would be free to get fixed... that's what the warranty is for, after all. ____________________ |

This is a weird question, but is there a BIOS setting to determine what the jacks are registered as? My (admittedly, it only has the line out/microphone/line in jacks) Realtek onboard audio lets you change whether they're output or input. If they're set to input when they're supposed to be output, or vice versa, they won't work properly for what you're trying to do. |

I'll assume you're tried rebooting, but try fiddling with your Realtek control panel (or starting it if you turned it off). I have a Realtek audiocard in here, and my front (back according to the software) panel jacks won't respond at all without that software running, and if it's glitched they'll also stop working. |

I've tried a bunch of things.
They were working fine before but now they're not responding. The control panel usually says if I plugged or unplugged from the jacks, and the ones that aren't working anymore don't even announce that anymore. It's like they're disconnected or fried or something. 2 of the surround sound output jacks are still detected though. My front mic and headphone jacks work as well. I need line-in so I can record in a clean format instead of the crappy mic input that amplifies, echos, and degrades the sound. ____________________ |

Posted by Skreeny So you say I can change the jacks. Is there any way I can change my mic in to line-in until I get it fixed? ____________________ |
