Hey there,
Probably a stupid question, but if you plug in a headset or headphone, can you hear anything then during boot or when playing a song?
Or is your sound just muted? Most of the time you should press your 'Fn'key and someother key.
Hoped I helped, otherwise we'll sort it out together, maybe even with the help of others.

This link does not refer to your machine but it will offer you a "road map" to follow as a general guide to troubleshooting a sound problem.
It is concerning that you have no sound from bootup. Does that use the same speaker in your laptop as do all your other sounds?
As it was OK a week ago, have you tried using System Restore?

Hi thanks for the reply,
as requards drivers, there is no sound device showing in device manager...i am begining to think that the onboard sound device is fryed..my thoughts go along the line of i have vista rc2 installed on a second partition an there is no sound device installed there too, this is why i was wondering that somehow...the onboard sound had been turned off in the bios , but theres no setting.
