How can I restore the sound cart on my lap top?

Q: I recently mysteriously lost the sound program on my computer, now my computer has no audio at all, but according to the computer itself, the audio program is still installed. How can I recover it?

A: Make sure your Sound Driver isn't disabled, it may have inadvertently disabled itself during shutdown: Go to Device Manager (Start> RightClick My Computer> Properties> Hardware Tab> Device Manager) and right click on your sound driver and choose enable. If you don't know the name of you Sound Driver, so to Start> Run> dxdiag. Now go to the Sound Tab and any sound hardware installed is listed. If that still doesn't work, the driver may have been uninstalled. If so, go to your computer's manufacturer's website and go to the "Support" section. There should be a link for drivers. You will need to know your computer's model, but once you enter that it will give you and option to download any missing drivers. Just find the Sound Driver and install it. Hope that helps =]
