Hello everyone,
Yesterday i built my gaming rig, installed everything where it should go. The problem is that when i tried to use the front panel jack it didnt work (my case is CM HAF 912, mobo is Asus P8H77 V LE), the mobo audio jack works perfectly. I connected the HD audio plug to the motherboard, and set the bios to run on the HD audio. I have tried to change it to AC97 however, it wont work. I installed the realtek HD audio manager, nothing more. Is there any driver i should install? Is it the case connector? Is it the mobo? idk :(

In realtek audio manager, there is a folder type icon which when clicked shows some options. Check/uncheck the first option, something as disable front jack detection and see if the headphone works. I had the same problem before and checking the option solves it
