    I have installed WINDOWS XP OS in my dell studio 1435 laptop.
    when i am plugging my headphone into the jack the sound is coming from both the speakers and the headphone.
    Please suggest me how to mute the sound from the speakers when headphone is plugged in?

    I found with my 1537 that using the front headphone port, my speakers mute, but using the rear speaker port, they don't.

    Further investigation revealed the laptop considers them separate devices, with the front headphone port and the speakers being the same device and the rear headphone port being another device with its own volume setting.

    Weird.

    Anyway, have you tried both headphone ports? I assume you typo'd and meant Studio 1 535...
