Laptop speaker stopped working after using headphones

Posted by Janak Gheewala

Something very weird happened yesterday. I was listening to some songs on my laptop in the office using my earplugs. That’s fine nothing wrong here. I then wanted to see a video on Youtube at home. THE SPEAKERS STOPPED WORKING. Had I done something wrong? was the sound card corrupted? Why did I not renew the warranty? Why did this have to happen only after the warranty had expired? These were some of the thoughts playing in my mind. I tried everything. Even RESTARTED the laptop. NO LUCK. It would work fine when I inserted the headphone / earplugs. But as soon as they came out … no sound. I tried everything, updated the drivers, restored to a previous point et al. No luck what so ever. The last thing I wanted to do was to reinstall the OS. Common, there should be a simpler solution. Then, I got frustrated (I was angry as well, but could not bang my laptop on the floor). WALLA. Never heard of that. I then googled and found out that I was not the only person who solved the issue in this way. But this is really a weird solution. All’s well that ends well. Cheers.

My First Blog

Posted by Janak Gheewala

Aah ha ...

my first blog...

One would ask, why and when did I think of blogging. Well most of us does a bit of blogging. But my inspiration was Big B (Amitabh Bachchan). I read somewhere that AB does post his comments on blogging. I thought, if he can why can't I? He has been an inspiration to millions of people in India. No wonder he is an inspiration to me.

2nd reason for blogging is that I am an IT professional, I need to do a lot of googling... so I stumble upon a lot of information around that glob which is very useful. I cant keep on storing my tabs in Firefox or Chrome. I have even tried storing links in a spreadsheet. Needless to say, that is not very helpful. Can't remember what is the info from link. So I thought of doing something that a lot of people do. Store the info in my blog with reference to the source.

The plan is to keep on blogging as frequently as possible. Lets see how successful I am.

Cheers.
