A few thoughts:
Go to control panel/system/hardware/device manager and see if there is a
yellow exclamation point for the 'sound' (or some component in sound).
The driver could have become corrupted. If so, right clicking on the
item and uninstall. When you restart Windows, the driver will be
reinstalled.
Also, you might check to make sure the cable from the CD player to the
onboard audio or to the audio card has not come loose.
Right click on the speaker in the task tray and open the volume control.
Check to make sure your sound volume is not set on mute. Also check that
the sound control panel has the CD volume setting at almost the highest
level.
I hope this helps.
