text: my sound doesnet work why?? i have it the sound pluged in and last night i unistalled some things on the remove programs and then the sound didnt work help plz!! if you're using windows xp, try running the help program, and type "sound doesn't work" in the text box.  that should give some results and troubleshooting steps to try.  chances are good that you'll just have to re-install your sound drivers from the cd's that came with your computer.
