Can you elaborate by asking an actual question, so that we can try to understand what the problem is?

Right click on speaker icon bottom right of screen, select Playback Devices, make sure that Speakers are chosen as Default device (green tick), if not select it. Highlight it then click on configure and/or properties to check the sound.

Just a thought:~ Have you checked the blindingly obvious?

Are the Speakers connected, plugged in and turned on... Many of us have been caught by a wire that has pulled out or a switch which has accidentally been turned off.
