as the title says, my headphones simply don’t work on my pc. they work on every other device i have tried on except my computer. i have updated drivers, but when i plug them in, i get no connection notification or sign of them even being recognized. could this be a port problem? if so, what are my options?

My case has a wire that goes to a motherboard header labled HD audio. Im assuming yours would have a simular situation? perhaps just crack open your case panel and see if you can follow a wire going from your port to your motherboard. make sure everything is seated properly

Kind of hard to see but

#

that far bottom left header is your front panel audio header. Is there anything connected to that?

You might need to restart your PC to get it to connect again though once you put it back in

do i even need the wifi card if i use wired connection?

mmm some of them do wifi and bluetooth. But if you dont use bluetooth then I dont see any reason to keep it unless you plan on bringing it somewhere else

#

it also might be a run of the mill wifi card and you dont need it anyways. your call.

i’ll just keep it to be safe
