Front I/O of Advent DT 2140

[wildZguy]

The front I/O of my Advent Dt 2410 case (the bit with USB's and mike jacks in case I/O is not what it is called), has some problems (mike jack not working properly). So i was thinking about replacing it but the only name i found was REACH. Does anyone have any idea what this could be?

Finding a a specific part for a case is almost impossible.

Are you sure it isn't a setting.
I know any time I set up the sound jacks, it takes a while, as the setting are not intuitive, and I don't go into those settings very often.

They didn't work om my new MSI board, by default. I had to go in and change the settings.

There is very little that can go wrong, it is just 2 wires in a simple circuit.

You can buy aftermarket front sound jacks but usually come with other things like USB ports or card readers.

The headset i have plugged in creates a strange static sound that gives me headaches. And i cannot get rid of it no mater what setting i use. Also it is not the headset as i can plug it into any other PC and it still makes the same sound

OK that is another problem.

Interference from the computer is a common problem, and is probably not the jacks.
Not an expert, but have seen it here often. RF interference.

Is this on-board sound?

A good dedicate card would probably solve the problem.

One of the fixes for a dedicated card is move it to the last slot.

If the wire going to the front jacks is the culprit, moving it around should change the pitch, of the interference.

1. not sure by what u mean by dedicated but its the standard card that comes with the case at the front

Sound card, not front panel.

You either have on-board sound, built into the motherboard, OR a separate dedicated card in an expansion slot.

Then you have on-board.

You may have to buy a sound card, and place it on one end, away from the video card.

Thanks for your help since i will most likly not buy a sound card i will see if their is any other way to remove the RF interference

I found these for what they are worth.
At least you are not alone.
