Minime 939 Posted November 15, 2021 Posted November 15, 2021 Hey guys, I have kind of an old setup. Anyway, I think my old Klipsch THX speakers are dying...they will go completly off... and sometimes they will come back on (when I fiddle with them). So I decided to go to headphones from the case ports in the front of the case. That worked good until one USP port went dead...so I went to the other USP and it was good for a while and it went dead. Then I just plugged went to the headphone jack and it was good for a while...now it has gone wacky. If I move the headphone cord just a little bit the MS setup window will start flashing and telling me a device has just been plugged in or unplugged over and over...if I unplug and then plug in again and hold the cable I can get through a video or whatever. Do you think it is the audio chip? Should I go to a PCI audio card...or get another MB from Ali EXpress? What do you think? My MB is a Gigabyte GA-X58A-UD3R.

Minime 939 Posted January 21, 2022 Posted January 21, 2022 OK it wasn't the motherboard. But I did solve the problems. It turned out to be two separate issues rather than one. First the Klipsch speakers turned out to be a problem with the on-off switch. As for the panel on the front of the case...well I guess I had run over the headphone cable with the office chair a few too many times. So I swapped the USB adapter to another set of headphones ....and now everything is fixed. Talk about drama. I went without audio for months until I finally decided to get to work on things. I feel like I have a new computer now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
cjloki Posted January 22, 2022 Posted January 22, 2022 That's good news, I'm glad that worked out for you... I have rebuilt an old socket 775 that was state of the art back in 2007 or 2008 and I caint seem to get it to boot but that's a different story Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
