Hello!

My audio jack port on laptop is broken. If i plug in headphones no sounds comes out and i opened the computer and saw that its broken.

I want to know if i can use the microphone port and the Y splitter to use my headphones with microphone ?

Thank you for your answers!
 
Solution
if when you plug in the black windows asks what you plugged in and offers you to select headphones you can use that. no problems. if not, you need a usb soundcard

I searched online and you can buy a USB to Stereo converter. It looks like the easiest option in your case. Check here
