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 not, try updating the driver, which will effectively restore it to factory settings if there's an update available.
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 an option to download any missing drivers. Just find the Sound Driver and install it.
Hope that helps =]

What software are you using to listen? I have had that trouble with media player 11. Also check all connections, and go to sound under control panel and check your software. Be sure mute has not been checked. Go to my computer right click and choose manager to see that all elements such as codec etc are not marked with an yellow exclamation point. If anything is reinstall all sound software.

Have you tried downloading the drivers?
Google search drivers for the make and model number of your speakers, download and install them.
Reboot your computer then try again.
If that doesn't work, update your virus detections and run a scan. Remove any that is found. Reboot then try again.
If that doesn't work then check your sound settings in your control panel

Check if your speakers are plugged into the computer, and their power source correctly. Then check if your computer is on mute. Also the sound you are trying to play may be corrupted

Control panel, sound and audio devices, audio properties, enable speakers.
