    Try this.

    Find your sound icon at the right corner of the bottom toolbar.

    Right-click and click [open volume control].

    Go to [Options] and click [Properties].

    Look at where your headphones are connected. Is it in the front or the back?

    In the [Mixer Device] list look for either something that relates to the front or the back (keywords to look for are "output", "green jack", and "audio").

    Once selected, check everything in the [Show the following volume controls] list. Press OK.

    Make sure nothing is muted or turned down all the way.

    If this does not work, try the previous steps for other Mixer devices.

    If you've tried them all and it still doesn't work. Restart the system and see what you've got.

    Well that's all I got for you...

    you will get utility and cables for data flow, and this could be properly worth thinking in case you have super quantities to flow. yet commonly a USB thumb rigidity, or a writable CD are extra easy and extra handy for universal applications.
