Assuming you used to hear sounds, you could have one of several problems.
1) Your speakers are turned off (is the little light on the speakers green?)
2) The volume is turned down or muted. Check to be sure you haven't accidentally muted them. You can find this out by clicking the little speaker icon in the system tray and seeing if the mute box is checked or check the sounds icon in the control panel.
3) Something happened to the sound driver. If you are in the Control Panel and click on sounds, you should see the various sound assigned to computer events. If you click the arrow to test play the sound and the little arrow is grayed out, then the sound drivers are missing or corrupt and must be reloaded.
4) Your speakers could be bad.
I tried everything every one told me.....messed up my computer.....so...I tried something of my own and it worked... My model is a w3050 I downloaded software from a link on one of these forums at Nvidia.com. The audio drivers were messed up with this download no matter how many times I uninstalled and re-installed. So I researched my original audio drivers for this model. Found out they were Realtech Ac'97 audio drivers so uninstalled the Nvidia audio drivers only and left everything else that was Nvidia. Then went tohttp://www.realtek.com.tw/downloads/down... The Realtech website looked for Ac'97 audio drivers found em and downloaded...simple ;)
