Have you done any Windows updates recently? On a couple of machines
here the Widows update misidentified the sound card, rolloing the
driver back to an earlier version reactivated the sound card. (Device
Manager, right click on the sound card entry, select properties, then
Driver, then roll back driver)

You could also try to uninstall the sound card and let Windows refind
it or reinstall the drivers, they are probably on the CD that came with
the motherboard.
