    Check Device Manager for any yellow ! marks near sound devices.

    Check the Sounds and Audio Devices settings in Control Panel > Audio tab > then check in the dropdown box Sound Playback > Default Device is actually there and chosen.

    also click under Speaker Settings check volume and click Advanced and choose your speaker setup.

    then play a Sound.

    Also did you do any of this http://forums.majorgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=81661 to install your driver?

    are your speakers ok?
