My headphone jack on my laptop is all messed up, it wont play out if it. I bumped into it with my aux cord and it messed it up. Question is, can I used the microphone jack as an output. Basically the same as my headphone jack? Someone possible to do this?

Guessing you don't want to take it apart and switch the wiring?

I just took it apart. Thought I fixed it, but to no avail.

Have you tried turning it off and on again? (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C2Ph8zwpNyI)
