Sound problem (front - in)
(oops sorry, the title went wrong)
Hello everybody,
My toughbook is a beautiful girl, she went through many, many adventures with me, and always came out clean (well left a little piece of plastic on the road, but still, some transparent tape, et voil). Man, that's a beautiful piece of hardware.
But for a couple month now, the sound is getting worse and worse. That wouldn't be a problem if there was a jack in the back - but there's none, just the one in the front. Problem is that it seems broken to me now, as any speaker/headphone connected to it will invariably produce a lot of jammed and weird noise. I can still cheat with the headphones, adding some weight on the jack itself to make a better connexion, but that's really not top notch. I fear my sound connexion hardware just can't take it anymore, and may need tweaking or fixing.
Because I am not really good at dealing with notebooks, I'd like to hear your opinions about my options. Being in China right now (but I didn't buy it there), I don't feel safe giving the bird to anyone either, and I wondered if you had any proposal (like a bigger/safer/support plug for instance where I'd could put the headphone jack?) that may actually turn it back to normal without having to ask a random person to open it for me.
What would you do if you were me?
Thanks in advance
