Well i'm not an expert on sound cards but it may need replacement drivers, that or the sudden power change has broken the sound card.
What Operating System you on?
What Sound Card do you have?
If you have a sound card built into the motherboard then what motherboard do you have?

If you don't know google and download "aida32" and that will tell you exactly whats in your pc!
or check "device manager", I only suggested "Aida32" because when I reinstalled my graphics drivers it wouldn't tell me what I had in device manager!

Is that something I have to download?I'm running Windows XP Professional edition, and I don't know anything about the sound card.

OK, let me tell you how my Thursday night went. First of all, earlier in the day, something caused the electrical outlets in the kitchen to reset, so the T.V. in the living room shut off also, and the cable box. I was trying to figure out what was wrong, because everything else in the house was working fine. I test out other plugs and sure enough the other one works, so I'm assuming the problem is solved, well it wasn't. My Dad then comes home around 7:30 P.M. after he gets off of work, and is looking to see what the problem was, (mind you the problem was already fixed, I just switched where it was plugged in at) so my computer is on, and it's sitting here, then he resets the breakers, causing my computer to shut off. I come in here around 9:00 P.M. to get on the computer and check my e-mail, coming to realize that my computer WILL NOT start. I then frantically search to find the recovery disc and the manual and could not find it. I felt like smoking 3 packs of cigarettes I was SO mad. But, I sat down, calmed myself down, went for about a 30 minute drive and asked God to please help me fix this thing. I come home, find the recovery disc, now I had to re-install EVERYTHING I lost everything on my computer, the sound doesn't work, can anyone help me?
