Its fine, other than the fact that sound comes from both the speakers and the headphones at the same time. This is particuarly annoying for me as I sometimes like to listen to loud music in the late hours of the night. The speakers and headphones both plug into green sockets, which is my best guess as to why they both play sounds at the same time. I guess I could unplug the speakers every time I want to use the headphones but that could get quite annoying. Any suggestions you may have would be brilliant. Thanks. x	Wicca (11975)

Other than that, some mobos may have a jumper on the mobo to disable the speaker output, when you plug in the heaphones . You would have to change it, if its on the mobo .	Speedy Gonzales (78)
