Hi Acen,
Use Device manager , find sound card and roll back driver..............
Have a look ......... Control Panel-> Sound and see what it thinks you have in the Sound department.

Hi Acen,
Do a system restore prior to your driver update.

you are a legend. I did what you said and it came back. cheers.
ive uninstalled the driver boost program that gave me a ridiculous critical message regarding the drivers so hopefully this will not happen again.

Hi Acen,
Stop playing with the snake oil............."driver boost program"
If you're running Windows 7 then leave as William Henry has supplied.............

Be very careful with third party download sites, especially download.com, as they have taken to bundling what many people consider to be malware with their downloads:

Filehippo is also at it:
