Solve : internal speakers/headphone jack problem? |
|
Answer» My laptop speakers eventually stopped working after I accidentally violently yanked out my headphone plug from the jack. Why blame the maunf's ? ? The hardware incident was an accident, I was blaming the lazy manufacturers for not making a sound card that blocks the noise of the fans appearing in the audio stream. But I just need to make a decision on what to do here with the jack, that and how to open my laptop, even when I unscrew EVERYTHING it will not open so I am really frustrated at the moment. Oh and by everything I just mean the screws on the bottom part of the casing and not the large components of the laptopYou'll have to open it up & repair the jack.Depending on the MODEL of laptop, there may be screws you've missed. Sometimes they're hidden under the battery, hard drive or memory COVERS, keyboard (once it's been unscrewed), and all sorts. The screws in the bottom are rarely the only ones that need unscrewed to get laptops open anymore. However, unless you're absolutely sure you can get the laptop back together after you've opened it up, I wouldn't take it apart. They're not always the easiest things to put back together. But if you insist on continuing, I'd suggest laying the screws out noting where they were removed from so you can get it back together. There can be quite a few of various lengths and sizes (my wife's laptop had 17 screws to remove just to get the thing open). |
