How to play Line In sound via laptop speakers.

[General Nick]

Plain and simple, I have a Dell Latitude D610. It's got a line in jack on the side (in laymans terms, what you use to plug in a microphone/headset and talk to people n stuff).

I have a male-to-male headphone cord and a Zune HD full of music I want to play.
Is there any way or program I can use so that I can play line in sounds through my speakers?

Are you on XP or Vista or what?

Vista (maybe 7)-
Control Pannel
Sound
Playback
(Your Playback Device)
Right click
Properties
Levels
All of your inputs into the playback device are listed down below.


XP (What I can remember)
Go to Mixer (double click volume thing)
Options (Top Left)
Properties
Tick the boxes which you want to be able to control (line-in in your case)
Then OK (or whatever)
Then you should have faders for that in volume control which is your playback control.

I hope this works, if not (or if it's not exactally what you asked), please just ask again and I will do anything I can to help.

There is NO WAY a Dell Latitude D610 can run Vista or 7.

I don't have a Line In option for Audio Mixer.

I have XP.

I don't have a Line In option for Audio Mixer.

What I always used to do is just tick all the boxes (makes a nice size mixer) and then just experiment untill I heard the thing I want :3
