Connecting HU to a laptop with USB??

is there any way to connect a head unit to a laptop with a usb plug, so i could play everything thats on the hard drive and audio output goes through the HU ... ?
If you don't have a USB compatible HU, then no.

Try using the sound card's output in conjunction with your AUX input through a cable.

 
Run it through aux input, I don't know of a single head unit with a USB connection
Lots of the newer ones have USB inputs. Like mine for example.

And no, you cannot hook a laptop up to a USB HU. The USB on the HU is an input and you have USB inputs on your laptop as well. Input + Input =/= Output. The ports were designed for flash drives or external hard drives with their own dedicated power.
