P6N (original) Front Audio trouble

I mistakenly posted my problem in another person's thread before I was kindly advised to start my own, so here it is.
I run the P6N SLI-FI motherboard as you may have guessed by the subject, but not the diamond or V2 or anything fancy like that, just the original.  I have it in a XION II case, and everything works perfectly...... except the front audio and microphone.  I could be a problem with the audio cable, as the front USB works great.  I installed the Realtek HD audio software from the cd and their website (newer version), but it still doesn't even recognize when I have something plugged in up there.  Checked through the Realtek manual, all the settings are correct, and the cable is hooked up correctly.  Do I just have a defective front audio socket on my motherboard or is there still hope for me?

Hi, can you detail out your wiring? ie what pin match with what pin. thanks.

  • 975x Front Audio panel troubles

    I've run into something interesting. 
    I've not been able to get the front audio connectors on my Antec 900 case to work, although I would heard the front channel through the headjack, the microphone would never work. 
    The Realtek Audio I/O display would never seem to recognize that something was plugged in so, if I go into the Connector Settings dialog and disable front panel jack detection - then it displays that the headphones AND the microphone are always plugged in - even if they're removed.
    Anyways, it works (sorta).  I thought that it was a connector problem, but obviously not unless something is wired wrong in the harness from the case.
    I'm running the latest official BIOS as well so, well, who knows where the bug is.
    Has anyone else experienced this?
    Thanks

    Do make sure that you have insert the audio connectors correctly on your motherboard. since your mobo is an intel based one, make sure that your front panel audio is compliant with the intel HD azalia specification.

  • P7N SLi Front Audio Problems

    I'm running Windows 7 x64.
    Installed the latest Realtek driver for ALC888 and strange things now happen to the front audio ports.  The autodetect ports doesn't work.  Even if there is nothing plugged in, Realtek says there is.  I cannot seem to mute the speakers when I plug headphones into the front ports even though I set this in the configuration.  Also, the microphone does not work unless you shout at it in the front port.  It works OK in the rear.
    I tried uninstalling the driver and installing the original one from the disk that came with the motherboard but it made no difference.
    According to Realtek, the drivers should all work in Windows 7.  I don't believe them.
    Any suggestions gratefully accepted.  If it comes to the crunch I guess I'll have to buy a sound card but I hope there is a solution.  I'm fairly sure it's a driver problem.

    No sure how well the driver supports goes for Win7 currently. Do check the pins connection as well.

    If you bought a new case, it should have something on paper that shows the front conecter pinouts for the front audio connecters.
    Hello again.
    On the JAUD there are  9 pins (but only 8 of which are active).  
    There are 7 connectors for the front (4 speakers, 1 ground and then the 2 MIC)).  
    And whilst this case is new, my only complaint is that there is no wiring instructions.
    I hope that helps.

  • Front audio port not working please help..

    Hey guys,
    My HP Pavilion DV2275ea front audio jack does not work, I have tried many different headsets as the mic jack works just fine. I have tried reinstalling audio drivers (Conexant High-Definition Audio Chip) and still nothing. I have look at the support advice posted to no avail. Is there anything else i could try?
    A friend said it could be turned off in the bios but i am not able to get in as i don't know the password for the phoenix bios, could this be true?
    Any help will be greatly appreciated

    Well from looking at a jpeg of your board the front usb headers are laid out just like my board. Each set of headers support 2 usb ports each. That gives you the 4 in the rear and 4 for the front.
    Now as to the pinouts, 1+3+5+7+9 is 1 set and 2+4+6+8+10  is the 2nd set, with pins 1 and 2 being the 5V power pins. Pins 7 and 8 are your grounds.  3 and 4 are the usbo- and usb1-. Pins 5 and 6 are usbo+ and usb1+. Pin 9 is the "key" pin and may actually be missing by intention. Key 10 is sometimes called the usboc pin and normally isn't used. On some boards you don't want anything connected to pin 10, even if you have to snip the wire going to it and terminate the end of the wire with insulating tape.
    Your motherboard manual should show you the pin layout.  

  • Front audio not detected

    Hi, I have a msi p35 neo 2 for quite some time now but didn't had the opportunity to use the front panel from my chieftec chase.Today I've tried the front panel but for my surprise alc888 didn't detected nor my headphone or the mic.If I disable front audio jack detection the mic and the headphones work but it doesn't switch off the back audio when I insert the headphones.
    How could I solve this issue?
    BTW I'm on windows 7rc  x64 bit.

    Not sure if the drivers are any compatible to Win 7 RC yet.

  • XFI Fatality And Front Audio Ports On C

    Hi guys I have a bit of a question about something that has been nagging me for a while.
    I have front audio ports on built into my case that I would like to have working. I know that the sound card came with an I/O Dri've with similar ports on it but it is just bugging me knowing that my case has them also and that they are not working. The case has a headphone and mic jack in front, Problem is that I have no idea if I can even hook them up using the sound card.
    Has anyone done this? If so can you help me connect my front ports.
    Thanks
    Any replies would be appreciated

  • A55M-P33 Front Audio

    I know there are lots of questions and answers on the front audio ports.   I just want to clarify some stuff.  I have the A55M-P33 motherboard which has the JAUD1 connector.  My case came with the HD and AC97 audio connectors. 
    I currently have the HD option connected to the JAUD1 pins on the motherboard.  If I decide to use that front audio port, is that the correct option to have connected to the motherboard?   
    And on another note, if I decide not to use the front audio ports, then is it okay to just disconnect that from the motherboard?

    HD Audio is correct to have connected! (AC97 is a old type of connector and some cases have that just for if someone uses a old board that uses that)
    If your just going to use the Rear outputs then its ok to not have the front audio plugged in as it will not be in use anyway! 

  • Fuzzy 945gm2 front audio

    Hi,
    I have an msi industrial motherboard. It is the min itx mobile core 2 duo motherboard which I use as a super quiet htpc/workstation. I've built my own case etc. and now I want to connect a 3.5mm front audio socket to the motherboard. I can't make any sense of the stuff in the manual about the JAUD1 front connector. I don't think it is the usual one on the other msi motherboards, and I don't see words like right out and left/right return. left out is there in the table on its own, none of the others though.
    Can any one help me please?
    Thanks,
    Shailen.

     The Fuzzy 945GM2/945GME2 share the same manual. If anyone can help figure it out here is the pinout for it:

  • Connecting SB Live! 5.1 to front audio po

    Hi!
    I have OEM version of SB Li've! 5. that I've bought with Creative Inspire 500 speakers. I also have a case with front audio ports but the problem is that I don't know how to connect soundcard with these ports. I haven't found any info about such possibility in manual but i have only short version of manual 'How to install'. Is there any possibility to connect my SB with the front ports? If there is - how can I do it's
    Regards,
    vacu
    ps.
    sorry for my English, I hope you understand me

    If you can find a 0-pin socket on Li've! card board, then you can connet your card output internally to the case audio/mic ports by following instructions given @ http://audigy2zshowto.blogspot.com/
    NOTE: pin orde may be different on Li've! (instructions are for Audigy 2 Zs, but works well least w/ Audigy 2 card too (I have done this)).

  • What will happen to front audio on computer ca

    Hi, When installing a Sound Blaster Audigy Value card the instructions are to disable the motherboard's onboard audio. I currently have front audio from the computer case connected to the motherboard for private listening with headphones. Does it mean that I can no longer use the front audio connectors after installing the sound card?

    Sorry but i think your out of luck creative are just about the only soundcard manufacturers who dont have front panel connectors.
    Well i suppose they have to sell they're boxes of cheap tricks on the more costly soundcards somehow, if they let you have front panel connectors then no one would buy the higher ranged cards with breakout boxes, not that many do anyway :angry:

    I don't want to screw anything up and any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks and have a great day!!!

    Hi Frankenputer,
    I'd also like to thank you for such a fast response! I do have a copy of the manual in my grubby little hands and I did read it. That's how  I was able to identify the motherboard pinouts in my first post. I guess that one slipped by you  . The link you provided is great, it'll come in handy if I ever misplace the manual down the road.
    My problem stems from the way the case manufacturer labelled the wires for the front audio connector e.g. using a naming convention that differs from that of the Intel Front Panel I/O Connectivity specification.  Specifically the Mic-VCC, Line-L and Line-R wires.
    Stated simply, I was hoping one of the experts here might be able to tell me/confirm if Mic-VCC should be connected to pin 3 - AUD_MIC_BIAS or to pin 4 - AUD_VCC, and if Line-R should be connected to pin 6 and Line-L to pin 10 on the motherboard.
    Again, thanks for your reply and have a great day!!!

  • Front audio connector

    Hi there!  I have the 845E Max motherboard, and my case has a front audio coonection in it.  I was jsut wondering  if it is possible to connect the front without disabling the back audio panel.  thx....

    You can do it but you will need to do some modifications to the connector so the front cable and the jumper are on there at the same time.
    You can simply buy splitters for the outlet plug on the back of the board.

  • HP m7160n front audio jack problem

    I am running Vista Home on my m7160n Media Center PC.  I used to be able to plug in my headphones to the front audio jack and it would cut out the rear speaker output.  Now it doesn't!  I have gone into sound properties and is IS set to turn off rear jack, when the system detects a plug in the front jack.  The headphones still work, but i need the speakers off when using the headphones.  I hope thats enough information.
    This question was solved.

    Hi MrBassMan26,
    That is odd and sounds like the jack-detect isn't working right. Did this issue just start happening? Did it occur after installing anything, even a Windows Update?
    If it just started happening, you could try running a Windows System Restore to an earlier point when it worked properly. Or you could trying re-installing the sound driver or even installing an updated sound driver. That should take care of it, and if it doesn't you may need to make some configuration changes in one of the Sound properties (Windows or Realtek).
    I see that you have Vista, did you by chance upgrade to Vista from XP?
    Try installing the Vista sound driver from Realtek: http://www.realtek.com.tw/downloads/downloadsCheck.aspx?Langid=1&PNid=24&PFid=24&Level=4&Conn=3&Down...
