    For some reason my computer will send audio to the speakers while my headset is plugged into the computer.
    How do I fix this?

    Unplug the speakers.

    Or try updating your audio driver.

    Thing is, I beleive the speakers are either in the monitor somewhere or in the Computer itself, but I'll doublecheck
    Also where can I update my Audio Drivers?
    Oh and it has never done this before.

    Those audio drivers depend on the brand of hardware you are using in order to get the right updates, because each audio device has it's own chipset similar to other forms of hardware.

    So I should post my audio stuff right?

    Yes, in order to find the right one.

    But have you checked the sound properties in the control panel before? Sometimes all you have to do is fix that.

    not seeing anything in the sound part of control panel that would help me :S
    My headset is if I remember correctly a Microsoft/Logitech ClearChat Premium PC I beleive or something like that, I dont have the case anymore but I'm sure it was something like that

    The only issue I think would have to be the headset. And if it doesn't require software then nothing should have prevented from being mute.

    I don't know, but personally I think the audio device is somehow reading whatever you have plugged in and it reads both devices, but one or the other is disabled.

    *facepalm*

    Try restarting your computer to see results... :-\
