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. For more information on how each
jack can be used, see
“Back” on page 10 . 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:
