    Hi there,
    I did something very very clumsy yesterday. I fell over my headphone cable. Everything seemed fine at the time but now I don't get anything from the right channel (tried multiple headphones) so I'm assuming a bent/broke the contact.
    I have a asus W3V. Does anyone know if the headphone socket is accessible with a screwdriver and if such a problem is fixable by me anyway?
    Any suggestions would be very welcome....
    Jeremy

    those jacks double up as spdif jacks, so they're probably sealed and non-servicable. you're best bet is probably to just send it in for warranty.
