If this worked before, try just deleting the sound card in device manager and then reboot. Your drivers should still be resident. If not download them at creative web site or driverguide.com. I assume you did not turn off the integrated sound card in the system BIOS.

Check your sound drivers.  If they're out of date, update them.\n\nIf they're okay, change the audio setting in the game.  If this doesn't resolve the issue, then it might be that the game doesn't properly support your sound card.  Check with the game manufacturer's website for technical support regarding the game.

You probably need to reinstall the driver software that came with the sound device. If the Sound device came with the pc bundle, then the driver for it is probably on a cd that came with the comp... failing that try downloading the driver

I assume checked your sound levels on your speakers and in the Control Panel.  Try rebooting your computer.  That usually solves the problem.  \n\nIf that doesn’t work, go to START –\nRIGHT-CLICK on MY COMPUTER\nSelect PROPERTIES\nClick HARDWARE tab\nThen DEVICE MANAGER button\nFrom the list, expand SOUND, VIDEO & GAME CONTROLLERS\nSee if you can find your soundcard device in the list.  If there is a problem with driver you’ll see an indication.  You can remove the device from the list and try rebooting the computer.  During the reboot, XP should recognize the “new hardware” and install the proper driver for it.  \n\nIf that doesn't work, it's somewhat likely that your soundcard is toast.

Try upgrading your audio card drivers. If that doesn't help, get a new sound card.

Sound Card is a hardware. It can't be downloaded

Try going into Device Manager and uninstalling your sound driver. (Under Sound, Video, and Game Controllers).  Reboot your computer and let Windows find it and reinstall the driver.  Sometimes drivers get corrupted, so you uninstall, reboot, and it gets reinstalled properly.  If that doesn't work, also try rolling back the driver (if you have XP).  If you ran Windows Update, sometimes their drivers don't work properly.  I've seen this several times on AC '97 Vinyl Audio drivers from Windows Update.

Reinstall the drivers.\n\nYou can look in the 'control panel / system / hardware / device manager', and make sure that your sound card is showing up under Sound, Video, and Game Controllers.  If it's not then you have a hardware problem.

Do as Phil says plus\n\nCheck to see if you are getting system sounds or just CD sounds - put a cd in (is it playing) test the sysytem sounds through DXDIAG (click start > run > dxdiag > click on sound > test sound\n\nCheck to see if you can hear the sound through some headphones - if you can you may have a speaker problem - check the cables etc\n\nCheck on the web to see if you have the most upto date drivers for the device\n\nIn device manager uninstall the sound card and also uninstall the Primary IDE channel (IN the IDE ATAPT controllers) then restart your pc \n\nHopefully this last option should reinstall your sound\n\nAlso check to see if you have a sound manager installed on your pc - check the setting within this
