so.. simple.. google "sound driver" or "chipset" in conjunction with the number printed on the bottom of your laptop.. strewth.. has logic completely left this generation?

start here http://www.computerhope.com/drivers/sound.htm

followed by http://sound-drivers.org/ when you know what your hardware is

I suspect your chipset/MOBO has failed. This happens all the time. Buy a new card. That is a cheap and the easiest solution. You can also try switching any cards you have into other slots. That shouldn't have anything to do with the problem but sometimes a problem 'moves' after you move cards around.
