    Reinstall the sound drivers that originally came with your PC. That should fix the problem.

    Like twinkledooter suggested -- get the Make and Model of your Sound Card

    Google it to find drivers -- Example: Creative Sound Blaster AudioPCI - driver

    Download -- This should give you site to download fresh set of drivers

    Install and enjoy your sound
