Hello,
Currently have a client computer in our repair shop with a sound output issue. Initially, the PC only had the motherboard sound chip, and although the computer still reckoned that worked, the evidence suggested otherwise. As a result, we went online, bought a new sound card (el cheapo, but good reviews) and fitted it. There was only one channel of sound, so we thought the card was faulty. We then tested another card (taken from a disused PC) and installed all drivers etc. Again, exactly the same issue, though when you partially insert the plug, the channel that wasn't working starts working, and the one that was working stops working. I'm at my wits end and can't for the life of me figure this one out.
Thank you
