Compaq laptop pressario

when I plug in my headphone sound still comes from my laptop speakers.

Are you using external speakers? or internal?

EXTERNAL SPEAKERS: If your are plugging speakers into your headphone jack and they dont play, but you plug headphones into the same port and they work fine.. then it is the external speakers.

INTERNAL SPEAKERS: But if you are using the speakers in the laptop, then your speakers are probably bad. Try some software settings, but probly just bad speakers. Could also be that the speaker cord inside the laptop came unplugged from the motherboard. In which case you would have to take the laptop apart and plug it back into the motherboard.

Good Luck.

you need to install the earphone driver

If the sound works on you headphones the either your built-in  speaker(s)  is/are  bad or more likely the headphone jack itself is broken and not making contact in the speaker position which is fairly common.

Restart the computer with the headphones plugged in, after restarting , start a mp3 or other audio file, pull out phones and plug back in, from now on *** should work normally.

hi,

It might be bec of driver problem, if you have windows xp then istall driver for it then it vl be solve

thank you,

If you are using Windows XP then the problem is related to the sound drivers. Actually this notebook is not officially designed to work on WindowsXP, however there are some unofficial drivers available for windows XP,you may try downloading the sound drivers from:

I'd recommend to install all the drivers from this page.
In case the drivers on this site do not work, let me know I shall provide you other links to the drivers.
