Re: Sound from headphones, but not without headphones?

I didn't have any sound issues before, but the other day I used
headphones on my laptop, and now, I can't hear anything WITHOUT
headphones.

So, when I plug in headphones, I can hear sounds. If I unplug the
headphones, no sound comes out of the speakers on my laptop.

I've checked the volume, checked to make sure it's not muted...I'm
stumped. Any suggestions?

Thanks!!
Michelle

I get the same results if my headphones are plugged in also, but if I unplug
the headphones and restart the program, my speakers work just fine.
Try rebooting with the headphones unplugged.

I have the same problem, but the problem doesn't go away after a reboot. I
went online with DELL for 2 hrs. We checked all settings, reinstalled sound
driver, reset BIOS, restarted computer from a safe state two days before the
problem occured. Still no sound from PC, it only works with headphones.
DELL said next step is to install OS! Any ideas out there?

Thanks!
