umm im not sure if this is onboard audio, but on the bottom right hand of your screen, (on the taskbar) you should see a little image that looks like a speaker/megaphone thing..its grey..double click on that and see if you are muting anything by accident
hope that helped..

Go to Control Panel, then System, then click the tab called Hardware. Click "Device Manager" and it should list all the components of your computer. There should be something about a sound card, probbly sound, video and game controllers. Click that, then examine the list. If any of the things have a question mark next to them or look different somehow, click on it and try to enable it somehow.

You gotta tell the computer that it is the bitch, and you are the pimp. Backhand it.

Have you tried restarting your computer? Works wonders.
