Are you using Windows XP?
Do you still have the CDs that came with your computer?

is your sound card built in, or you got a separate card, if it is built in, then insert the CD of your mobo, to the cd drive, if a menu pop-up to install the driver then choose the menu to install the driver for your sound card...reboot the system after installing..
