My dell latitude d510 internal spk is ready but output headfone jek not working
these are fairly passive in that if a headphone or earpiece is plugged in, they switch the output from the internal speaker to the external speaker. So, it's usually one of a few problems.
- The jack is mucked up, and needs replaced.
- The headphone plug wires have a broken connection
- The headphone needs power to amplify, and that's not working.
If trying another headphone or earpiece you know is working doesn't work, it's the jack itself. They can only handle so many uses before they either fail closed, or open or completely. Depending on which one, either:
- neither speakers nor headphones work.
- only speakers work
- only headphones work
Replacement necessitates opening the case and replacing the jack. For that, there's no help.
Tv output where is it located
look at the pictures on your Dell 510 there should be 1 that looks like one of these. It is an s video port, your tv should have an s video input so you need an s video to s video cable. If not the check the inputs available on your tv and get an s video cable to fit your dell output and that will fit one of the available inputs on your tv.
How to connect D510 to TV
I believe without dock it only has svideo or VGA out so your TV will need to have svideo in or VGA in. An alternative would be to use a streaming device such as chromecast.
Ethernet controller driver
uninstall the old lan card drivers , download the new driver from website and intall , it should fix the problem
Internal HDD hard error
By your description it is very likely your hard drive finally failed. You probably looking at total data loss unless you have made recently an backup of it. You will have to get a new HD and then you can install your OS and software.
Another more remote possibility is that when you opened some covers, you accidentally disturbed the HD connection causing this problem.
Just for clarification, was there a lot of dust inside ?
Hope this helps.
