If you have integrated sound then pop your motherboard driver disc in to install them.

If you have a sound card then again it would have come with a driver CD. If you haven't any of these then download something like "PC Wizard", this will give you all the info needed to do a search with google for them.
 
tft,
thanks for the reply i do not have the disks you mention so i downloaded pcwizard but im not sure what to do now
thanks

Bill, assuming you have integrated graphics. Run PC Wizard and under Hardware/System Summary the screen should tell you what make of Mainboard you have.
As an example "Mainboard : Gigabyte 945P-S3"
Google "gigabyte 945P-S3 drivers" which should give you the option of the manufacturers site where you can download them.
 
I think sometimes you have to go into BIOS and integrated peripherals might be turned off for audio. I know that it happens when you add a sound card to your pc. Try that if what TFT posted up doesn't work.
