I.T question:

i just bought a new headset (headphones & mic) for the computer, and this time the plug in via a usb port. I also have speakers set up which plug into the normal green 3.5mm plug at the rear. Since i've had the headphones it overrides the speakers and i don't know how to get sound to come out of those?

Is there a way or button to click that can alternate between the two when necessary? I use the Realtek HD Audio Manager

What's your motherboard?

Go to your windows volume settings, options, properties, then choose which sound device you want?

This is why I refuse to use usb headphones/mics. And people say I'm crazy.

^You're crazy.

nah that doesnt work Bah, it just puts up the sound properties, doesnt actually reroute the sound

N when you plug in the USB one, I think its actually got a built in sound card. Ie go into control panel, goto sounds & audio devices, goto the audio tab and check out the default playback / recording device
