I have a big problem, my speakers for some reason ONLY work when plugged into the Pink Microphone plug in, in the back of my computer. I need to also plug in a microphone as WELL for typing programs and chat. But since my speakers only work in that plug in. its EITHER speakers or microphone and thats soo silly

has anyone had this problem and was able to resolve it?
please let me know asap!
Some details about the machine make and model, or MOTHERBOARD make/model could be helpful.

Has it always been this way?some details please of the computer and motherboard please.
the pink connection is normally the microphone, so you should have sound from the Green, but you might have set up the sound system as a multi speaker system which would change the input and output sockets.
how many speakers are you using? if it is only two, GO to Control panel/ sound and Audio DEVICES/ at the bottom of the first page click advanced, then scroll the small window to select the type of speaker system you do use such as "Desktop stereo speakers" or whatever you have. only select 5.1 or 7.1 if you have the correct speakers attached , the sound system can also be sent to the front connections in some computers which then screws up the rear connections you must only use one or other as the motherboard will do strange things when front and rear are actioned.
