Anthony - you never said anything about the sound ever working! If in fact it suddenly stopped working, and you did nothing to change settings, I would suspect a bad card or corrupted/lost driver. Try deleting the card and physically remove it. Then re-boot and shutdown. Re-install the card and hope windows sees it and finds a driver for it.
