start, all programs, accessories, entertainemnt, volume controll. Check its turned up and that it isnt muted (check box at the bottom)

Still no joy?
are you using a media player or is there no windows sounds. or both.
this could be down to a bad driver, click start, run, and type devmgmt.msc.

there shouldnt be any yellow triangle next to anything, especialy anything to do with sound.

Device manager can lie, it did to me when my sound went. So uninstall your Audio driver reboot and reinstall.

Are you using Windows Media Player? Try a different player like Winamp and see if that makes any difference.

when is it your getting no sound? when your trying to play music, films or is it windows sounds?

Open Control Panel>Sounds and audio devices, then click on the Sounds tab. Under program events, click on any file with a speaker icon next to it. Then underneath in Sounds: the play arrow should not be greyed out. If it is, then it is a driver problem. If you can press play then it's more likely the speakers. Test them by plugging into a mp3 player or something similar. The other cause could be that maybe they are plugged into the wrong socket - the right one is usually green.
