Configuring the audio jacks
If the back of your computer has five audio jacks, they are
universal jacks. This means that they can be used for more than
one purpose. For example, the blue jack on the computer can
be a stereo in jack or a stereo out jack. To use the audio jacks
for something other than the default audio device, you need
to configure the audio jacks.
To configure the audio jacks:
1
Connect your audio device(s) to the computer audio
jack(s).
2
Click Start, then click
Control Panel
. The Control Panel
window opens.
3
Click Sounds, Speech, and Audio Devices, Sounds and
Audio Devices, then click Advanced under Speaker
Settings. The Advanced Audio Properties dialog box
opens.
-OR-
If your computer has the Realtek Sound Effect Manager
installed, double-click the Sound Effect Manager
icon
on the taskbar. The Realtek dialog box opens.
4
Follow the on-screen instructions to configure the audio
jacks for your speaker setup.
