Hi kevint,
This problem might happen if the sound card is disabled in device manager or the drivers are not installed correctly. Check to make sure that the Sound Card is enabled under Sound, video and game controllers in Device Manager. If the issue is still not resolved try updating the Audio drivers. If you need help with the correct audio drivers for the sound card, please provide me the Device Instance ID of the sound card. To get the Device instance ID of the Sound card, right click the Computer/My Computer icon on the Desktop, select Manage, select Device Manager under Computer Management from the left pane, then expand Sound, video and game controllers from right pane. Right click the Device listed under Sound, video and game controllers, click properties, go to the Details tab, and then select Device Instance Id from the dropdown list. Make a note of this Device Instance ID.
Please do write back to us.

Hi Zohaib, Many thanks for your help. Incidentally, I am using Windows XP Pro. I managed to find Device Instance ID which is as follows (I hope!)
PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_266E&SUBSYS_02F71014&DEV_03\3&61AAA01&0&F2
I may be offline for a while.
Thanks.

Hi Kevin Thomas,
From the Device Instance ID you provided - 3&61AAA01&0&F2 - I found that your desktop system has an onboard audio chip which is SigmaTel C-Major Audio. You can download the Driver for this from:
https://download.cnet.com/SigmaTel-C-Major-Audio/3000-2110_4-153235.html
If this doesn't work reply with the exact System Model Number of your computer as Thinkcentre A51 has many different sub-models numbers listed on Lenovo's website (https://support.lenovo.com/fr/en/#)
Do reply with results.

Hi Zohaib,
Thank you so much for all the effort you are expending for me!
The full model number of my computer is
ThinkCentre A51 812255U
Also, I clicked on the link you provided which led me through a number of steps up to the point of registration. Since I had seen nothing about downloading a driver I terminated the process. Let me know if I was too hasty!
I"m afraid I am a little overcautious about buying software I am not familiar with.
