Click to expand...

Start
Settings
Control Panel
Click "Classic View" if not already enabled
Open Sounds applet
Click Audio tab
Top-most drop down? What's listed in the selection box?

If there's your sound card then select it. If it's not there to be able to
be selected check the drivers to ensure they're installed properly and not
corrupted.
