Check--- Start: Control Panel: Sounds and Audio Devices: Sounds tab: Sound Scheme field = No Sounds.

Make sure that it doesn't say NO SOUND

Double click the volume control and make sure nothing's muted or turned all the way down.

If you go to Start>Settings>Control Panel>Sounds and double click Audio Devices then click Sounds tab you can assign different sounds to your program events.

I hope this helped
